The British actor injured himself during an action excursion earlier and has been left with a mangled left index finger which will be scarred for life, reports contactmusic.com.

But Bale admits he barely felt the injury and didn't realise how serious it was until he caught sight of his bloodied hand.

"I had a dirt-biking accident and chopped it off at the end. You have something as extreme as that - you've lost the end of your finger - but it didn't hurt. I just kept looking at it, going, 'Why is that not hurting?' It (the finger) looks horrible. Everyone else almost faints looking at it," he said.
