Actor Tarek Boudali Reveals Near-Fatal Accident on ’3 Jours Max’ Film Set

Received by Bruno Guillon on the show Le Bon Dimanche Show, which will be broadcast this Sunday, October 22 at 2 pm on RTL, Tarek Boudali revealed details about the filming of his new film, 3 Jours max. For the needs of a scene, he had to be compressed, and use the "peanut" code in case things went wrong, but everything did not go as planned. "At one point, I have to get compressed and in my text, I have to say: ’Stop! Stop!’ I still have a code in case it goes wrong so they [the production, ed.] stop the machine," he explained. "So I agreed with my whole team: ’If you hear peanut, you stop everything.’"

During the filming of the scene, the machine compressed the French-Moroccan actor so much that he forgot the code. "I keep saying: ’Stop! Stop!’ And there I see my teams who are watching me and saying to themselves: ’How well he’s acting!’" he added. They were far from imagining that the interpreter of Sam in Babysitting had forgotten his code. "I think I’ve never acted so well. But it compressed me so much that I dislocated my knee. I cracked two ribs. There, I yelled and they understood there was a problem," he concluded.

3 Jours max is the sequel to 30 Jours max. A comedy full of humor and action. "Rayane, a clumsy policeman, heroic despite himself in 30 JOURS MAX, now finds himself facing an extremely farcical situation. His grandmother has been kidnapped by a Mexican cartel, and he has 3 days max to free her. Alongside his loyal colleagues, he will live extreme adventures between Paris, Abu Dhabi and Mexico," summarizes the synopsis.
