"I think surviving, in a one-word answer," he says of his personal Batman highlight. "It was a very dangerous show to make. I was in the emergency hospital the first four of the six days of filming. (I had) second-degree burns, my nose (got) broken by a two-by-four landing on it from explosions. Let me tell you something, it was a lot of fun, it's really very simple. It was a fantastic show to do, everything was as great doing as you see it on television. The only two horrible things: It was very dangerous and (I had) a costume that was not a lot of fun to wear."
