21. George Takei – deformed foot

Unfortunately for Mr Sulu, one of his feet boldly went where no foot has gone before – and never returned.

Look at how the toe is bent

According to Star Trek star and LGBT activist George Takei, one foot is now permanently cramped.

And, says Takei, the responsibility lies with one well-intentioned but ultimately life-changing fan. Go on, we’re listening…

It all began as a nice gesture from a fan

Years ago – we’re talking back in the 70s – Takei received a pair of running shoes from a fan that the actor subsequently wore on a 10k run.

After the run, Takei’s right foot “got the most horrific cramp and all the muscle on my right side cramped up”.

He tried to have it fixed

Takei had surgery to correct the damage, but after a short while the foot returned to its (now permanently) curved state.
