The X-Men star feared he had broken his neck during a daring scene in which his character swings out of a train carriage.
Jackman's injuries weren't severe, but the incident was enough to scare his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, who made him reassess the amount of dangerous work he does on set in future.
"In the film, there's a scene where I swing from inside to outside a train and my neck got caught. I thought I had broken it." Jackman says he is now smarter about using a stunt double.
"It was one of those moments when my wife looked at me and said, 'What are you doing? Enough playing in the schoolyard! You are not invincible!'"
The 44-year-old actor also revealed in a recent interview with GQ magazine that his character's famous Adamantium claws are dangerous in real life too, just not
as dangerous.
"They've cut deep more than once. And not just me", he said of Wolverine's weaponry.

You don't know who I am? Well sit back because my story is a beautiful tale of power and integrity, a captivating experience and ingenious story.
When I was sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit, I signed up for the weapon X program where I got some acid stuff in my eye which caused me to go blind except for whenever I shout the word, "SHAZAM." I was part of Project: Rebirth and given an indestructible shield, however I had gotten bitten by a radioactive spider which caused my father Odin to banish me from my home, only for both my parents to get shot in an alley. And to top it all off, I was exposed to gamma radiation when my mother died and I was abducted from Earth by a strange blue-skinned alien, which gave me the ability to teleport, shapeshift, read minds, and squirt milk from my nose.
