‘Terminator 2’ star Robert Patrick decided to pursue acting after life-changing boat accident

"Terminator 2" star Robert Patrick said in a new interview that he made the life-changing decision to pursue acting after a boating accident.

Instead, while living in the Cleveland area, he worked in a bank and dabbled in modeling before a life-changing boat accident inspired him to pursue his dream.

Patrick said, "In 1984, I was piloting a 30-foot boat that belonged to a buddy when it capsized and sank. Five of us were in the water, including my brother, Lewis. The boat hadn’t been properly prepped."
