@viral.ivoryBefore Gladiator wrapped, Oliver Reed took on a group of sailors in a drinking contest. Eight pints of beer, twelve shots of rum, plus half a bottle of whisky and cognac were involved. He played Proximo, and he died while the film was still being made. A photo exists from shortly before his death.
