It doesn’t take a lot for a special day to have some hiccups. But when it goes as wrong as it did for Arnold Schwarzenegger, one needs to watch out. What was supposed to be some planned quality time with his then-wife, Maria Shriver, turned into a nightmare due to a practical joke.

In his book, Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story, the Hollywood star unfolded one of the wildest stories from his life. The actor and the journalist, on the sets of Predator, witnessed a nightmare in the form of their honeymoon. Let’s take a look at what happened.

Quality time for the newlyweds turns upside down

After their marriage, both Schwarzenegger and Shriver couldn’t take out a lot of time from their schedules. Therefore, when the star was shooting for Predator in Mexico, the journalist accompanied him for a couple of days. Following a busy day of running around the set, they settled in with a romantic dinner and planned on a round of wine. This is where things went wrong.

What was meant to be a romantic honeymoon turned into a scene from a horror movie. When Shriver excused herself to the bathroom, she saw a big group of frogs hanging off of the shower curtain. Schwarzenegger mentioned how his then-wife was famously afraid of critters like spiders and bees, and frogs fit the bill.

“I Can’t Breathe” Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Co-Star Once Pretended “He’s Dying” to Make Him Give Up a Toxic Habit That He Later Ended Up Picking Himself

The sight alone was enough to be terrified for the journalist. The former bodybuilder wrote, “I heard loud screams coming from the bathroom, like in a horror movie”. Turns out, the prank was a deliberate joint effort of stunt coordinator Joel Kramer and his team. This was payback for when Arnie put a bunch of spiders and snakes in the coordinator’s shirt and bag respectively. The star has always been a prankster and once even tried scaring his fans as a joke.

Fans witnessed the mischievous side of Arnold Schwarzenegger

Unlike his bold personality on screen, Schwarzenegger is a huge prankster who loved to play practical jokes. His co-stars, crew members, and even family members would be watchful if the Austrian Oak was up to something. But once, fans bore the brunt.

The star dressed up as his popular character, the Terminator, and paired up with Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Hollywood in 2015. There, he stood as still as a wax statue while fans clicked pictures with him and caught them by surprise by scaring them. The lovable prankster ended up surprising a bunch of fans in the process.
