Describes how his severed
finger gushed like 'Vesuvius'
Description:
ohnny Depp jokes that his severed finger gushed like ‘Vesuvius’ after it was sliced off during a blood-curdling fight with ex-wife Amber Heard in exclusive video footage obtained by DailyMail.com.
The Captain Jack Sparrow actor, 56, chuckles on camera as he reveals how he nicknamed the permanently-damaged digit ‘Little Richard.’
He also claims during a series of clips that he ‘protected’ Heard in the aftermath of the March 2015 dust-up, pretending he trapped it in a door when the gruesome injury allegedly happened when she hurled a vodka bottle at him.
‘I was trying to get the finger back, you know,’ he says, with a wry smile. ‘And then deal with the insanity of having had my finger chopped off by this woman that I was married to.’
The violent incident took place a month after the pair were married and while Depp was filming the fifth installment of the Pirates of Caribbean movie franchise in Australia.
It has become the couple’s most memorable - and hotly contested - clash, with both sides offering radically different accounts in a string of legal cases that followed their bitter May 2016 split.
