This 90’s teen actor maybe made it to A- list before things went south because of drugs.

At one party at his house, he decided he was going to jet ski in his pool.

The pool was maybe 25-30 feet long at its longest point.

He dragged the jet ski from his garage and put it in the pool and did a couple of solid passes and was maintaining a decent speed.

People breathed a sigh of relief and thought this might turn out OK.

The actor then decided he could get enough speed to jump the hot tub and land in the grass beyond.

By some miracle of miracles, he ended up in the hot tub alive.

The jet ski caused a small explosion as it slammed into a fence about 100 feet beyond the hot tub.

Edward Furlong

Edward Furlong Was A Rising Star, But His Life Took A Drastic Turn That’s Left Him Unrecognizable

Alcoholism and drug addiction are so common among young celebrities that’s it’s easier to list all the people who didn’t deal with that. It was early in his career that Furlong started to struggle, and by October 2000 he had entered rehab.

That wasn’t even the first time that Furlong had been through a huge controversial event. When he was only 13 years old and on the set of Terminator he began a romantic relationship with his 26-year-old tutor.

They even moved in together and were in what he called a “quasi-spousal relationship” for his teen years. In 1994, California’s laws on rape changed, and technically their relationship was illegal. Furlong’s guardian tried to have Jacqueline Louise Dormac, the tutor, charged, but it was unsuccessful. Their relationship ended when Dormac sued Furlong for violent behavior.

Furlong would later wed Rachael Bella, and in 2006 they had a son. But this relationship didn’t last long. The drama of Furlong’s life led their son to test positive for cocaine and after their divorce he was restricted to supervised visits only.

He admitted in 2006 that he was “on and off” hard drugs. “I was a cocaine addict. It was really scary.”

However at the time he claimed to have been past that life, saying, “I don’t even think about [partying] anymore. It seems lonely now: running and clubbing and doing coke. I have nightmares about doing hard drugs. I’ll wake up and I’m like, ‘Did I relapse?'”

Furlong was not only restricted from seeing his son, but in 2009 following a “drug-fueled frenzy” that resulted in a physical assault against Bella, she had him committed to a mental ward, and obtained a restraining order against him.

He was said to have been leaving her aggressive voice mails threatening her “with chains and bats” and by refusing to offer her any financial support.

After this issue seemed to have been resolved, he once again violated the restraining order. He also fell behind in child support and the courts had to order him to give up 10% of his earnings.

By 2013, his luck hadn’t changes at all. He was now being sentenced to jail for violating probation and once again harassing his ex-girlfriend. He spent 61 days in jail, and also went to rehab for his drug addiction and was asked to undergo counselling. – Source
