In episode 92 of the podcast which was published 2 August, Kreischer explained he needed surgery on his left arm following a fall. He said: “I can’t go into too much detail, but I fell. I fell acting in a movie.
“I was doing all my own acting, and I fell, and kind of tweaked my elbow, and I thought it was fine, and I continued to live my life like it was fine, I thought it was healed.
“Then one day, I caused more damage, and I heard three pops, and I tore 59% of the tendons in my left elbow, attaching my tricep.”
Kreischer had surgery on his arm at the end of last month (29 July) and at the time shared a snap in his surgical robes on Instagram.
