Mark Hamill was bitten by a snake on the set of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and he still hasn’t forgotten it.
Hamill, who of course plays Luke Skywalker in the franchise, was sent behind the scenes footage of himself having trouble with the snake from the 1980 film:

Hamill’s response was hilarious as he recalled that the snake “f**ing bit me!”:
Snake(blind from moulting)flinched each time I touched him-After several takes he got fed-up & "f***ing bit me"! Off-camera Yoda lines=LOL! https://t.co/K7IZvZcjaq

And it’s not the first time that the Star Wars actor has commented on the incident, as he actually defended the snake earlier this year:
Not his fault! Snake was moulting & blind- I startled him- he had no choice. Still kinder than many critics. #BiteMe https://t.co/kBB52IfLuc
