Ever since Rocky, Sylvester Stallone has been an icon in Hollywood. Seriously, people can’t get enough of him. Let’s not forget Rambo either! Not many can measure up to Stallone, but do you really know the star? There’s much more to him than what you’ve seen on the screen.

‘Rambo’ Made Him Sick

Funny enough, Sylvester Stallone absolutely hated Rambo: First Blood Part I when he watched the first 3.5 hour cut. It even made both him and his agent feel sick! Actually, Stallone though about buying the film and destroying it because he felt like it would kill his career. Alas, they released a heavily re-edited 93 minute cut to theaters. Hopefully, Stallone felt a lot better afterwards!

As a child, Stallone always dreamt of becoming a hero. In fact, he often wore a superhero costume underneath his uniform for school. Sylvester Stallone went to Notre Dame Academy and then Lincoln High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. One time, a young Sylvester even tried to fly out of his bedroom! What a character!
