Margaret Hamilton's Oz Burn

Actress Margaret Hamilton (the Wicked Witch of the East) was badly burned while filming "The Wizard of Oz." After being hospitalized, she returned to the set but refused to do any scenes involving fire, so her stunt double took her place in a scene riding a prop that spewed smoke, which exploded and injured her as well.
