A star of the Netflix hit Squid Game was rushed to hospital when a freak chainsaw accident amputated his toes.
Geoffrey Giuliano, 70, was having his home renovated when a builder dropped the industrial tool and it bounced onto his foot on Tuesday.
The actor collapsed in a bloodbath and then scooped up the severed limbs for medics to reattach them in Pattaya, Thailand.
He has now undergone a second reconstructive surgery in the capital Bangkok today, December 1.
Geoffrey said: ‘It hurts like crazy today. The doctors told me I'm lucky to be alive, but I don't feel lucky. A chainsaw almost killed me.'
Geoffrey finally achieved acting success when he starred as evil VIP 4 in the South Korean show in 2021. He has since appeared in the second series Squid Game: The Challenge.
Earnings from the show allowed him to buy his dream house, which is what the builders were working on when the horror chainsaw accident unfolded.
Geoffrey said the gruesome scenes on his front lawn were ‘worse than anything the actors endured'.
Speaking today in the video shortly before the operation at the King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, he said: ‘The chainsaw flew about 8ft into the air, hit the floor, chewed up the floor, then landed on my foot, so there went the top of my big toe and second toe.
‘I was in Squid Game, I saw what was happening there, this is much worse, none of the contestants from Squid Game could have survived this.
‘I was in shock. It didn't hurt at the time, but there was lots and lots of blood. I picked up my toes, put them in a paper towel and we rushed to the hospital. They sewed them on temporarily and now we're here to fix them properly.
‘Those actors would've fainted if they had to go through what I went through.'
