Zac Efron simply defined why his jaw, very similar to the Grinch’s coronary heart, seemingly grew three sizes in a single day, and the backstory is each painful and a bit of humorous. Final yr, for Earth Day, the Hairspray star appeared in a musical video (proven beneath) trying, as an instance, swollen. Quick-forward to the 1:50 mark to see him sporting a jawline a lot wider than common. The Web rapidly determined that he’d had some type of botched Botox or filler process, however in a brand new interview the actor revealed the reality: He’d damaged his jaw.

He was operating by means of his home in socks (cute) and slipped and smacked right into a granite fountain, knocking himself unconscious, he advised Males’s Well being. When he got here to, his jaw was hanging off his cranium, and as he healed, the encircling muscle groups acquired enormous to, I assume, maintain his cranium collectively? I am not a physician, however Efron defined that the facial muscle groups work collectively “like a symphony,” and that sounds proper to me. TL;DR: He does bodily remedy to maintain his jaw trying regular, however he took a break across the time he made the video, therefore the bigness.

Clearly, I needed to see for myself what sort of fountain dared harm our prettiest boy, and in case you are additionally curious, listed here are photos of the home he offered a month after showing within the Earth Day video. The fountain in query appears to be the small out of doors waterfall feeding into his hillside pool. And you recognize, if I broke my face, I might wanna offload my home too. Painful recollections and whatnot.
