The result was a neck strain for Carrey, and a heart-stopping scare for his fans. Blame for the incident spread like wildfire among cast and crew, as well as fans of both Carrey and Lawler.
The altercation had an eerie instance of déjà vu of the infamous neck injury Andy Kaufman suffered also at the hands of Jerry Lawler - complete with controversy.
