Isla Fisher almost drowned while shooting a scene for Now You See Me? She was supposed to be trapped in a piranha tank, but they always kept the lid open in case Fisher needed to swim to the top to get some air. There was also an emergency lever inside the tank that she could pull to alert the crew if she needed help. During one take, Fisher tried to swim up for air, but the chains on the handcuffs she was wearing got stuck on the bottom of the tank, so she was unable to swim to the top or pull the lever. She tried to alert the crew by banging on the glass of the tank, but since her character is supposed to be panicked in the scene, the crew thought she was acting! The stunt coordinator finally realized something was wrong after seeing the handcuffs were stuck, but it was definitely a close call for this redheaded actress.

She says she made the mistake of wearing green tights to school one day, and all the football players started calling her the Jolly Green Giant. Her family was poor, and things were hard enough for her already, but she says after the redhead bullying started, she became very depressed and dropped out of high school.
