Oklahoma man loses nearly entire hand in power saw accident
MIDWEST CITY, Okla. (KFOR) — A tragic accident with a power saw has claimed a man's fingers. Tammy and John Russell own a handyman business and have been working on a Midwest City home for a few months. On Saturday evening, Tammy was out in the back painting and her husband John was cutting wood in the garage. All of a sudden their lives changed. 'I heard this horrific, horrific scream and he came running and he's holding his hands and he said he needed to go to the E.R. right then, it was bad,' said Tammy. John was losing blood fast and with only work tools on site Tammy had to act quickly. 'I remember I had a jacket around my waist that I just was trying to fumble to get it untied,' said Tammy. She used it as a tourniquet and they raced to the hospital, but doctors weren't able to save his fingers. Edmond house fire may have been caused by lightning strike 'They wanted to try, but I knew there was no point. I asked them I said, 'what's holding them together?' He said, skin. I said, just take them,' said John. John is left with only his thumb. 'It was horrific just to look at. I've never seen anything so gruesome, especially happening to my husband. It was just awful because that's his working hand,' said Tammy. Now, the couple hopes their nightmare will teach others. John says even with proper equipment, safety gear and years of experience you need to work cautiously. 'That saw it will jump and bite you and regardless how good you think you are you eventually get caught,' said John. Even in pain, John is moving around and is determined to find a way to still finish the job. 'Just another challenge to work around,' said John. The road to recovery will be tough, especially without insurance. The couple has a Gofundme page set up. To donate, click here. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Josh Peck's Net Worth In 2025 From Nickelodeon to Big Bucks
Josh Peck's in 2025 is enough to let him maintain his lifestyle, choose projects that excite him and relax a bit in between, and that's exactly how he likes it. "I'm uniquely lucky because my purpose is the thing that I love and can also financially sustain me," the actor, podcaster and YouTube star previously told Parade. Wise words from The Wackness co-star are part of what Peck says keeps him both grounded and successful in a world where child stars often struggle not just to keep working as adults, but also to find their own senses of self and healthy coping mechanisms. "I was asking him for advice and I thought he was going to tell me these secrets to being a movie star," Peck recalled. "But what he told me was, 'Find your apostles. Surround yourself with people who make you better.' Since then, I've lived by that advice." It's worked spectacularly: From Nickelodeon to an Oscar-winning juggernaut, find out how Peck became famous and how much he's worth today. Related: Born Nov. 10, 1986 in New York City, Peck grew up in the Big Apple and attended the Professional Performing Arts School. He began working as a child, performing standup comedy and appearing on The Rosie O'Donnell Show when he was just 10 years old. At 13, he was cast alongside on The Amanda Show, and he and his mother moved to Los Angeles to pursue his career further. He remained on The Amanda Show until its 2002 cancellation, but worked other jobs during that time as well. In 2000, Peck made his movie debut in the family comedy Snow Day, and in 2001 starred in Max Keeble's Big Move and guest-starred on network drama E.R. and appeared in several indies. Peck became a household name in 2004 when he landed the Nickelodeon series Drake & Josh with , but it was a mixed bag for him emotionally: While he became financially secure and super successful, he worried about getting typecast because of his weight at the time. "On the one hand, I was getting to perform my favorite kind of comedy on a network I dreamed of being on, but on the other hand I was introducing myself to the world in a body I didn't want to be in," he previously confessed to Parade. "People are used to a big, funny guy. It's synonymous with the wrapping on your favorite candy bar. It brings people pleasure and they get used to it." Peck recalled being told he'd be the next or , but the idea didn't thrill him. "Those guys are geniuses and I would be happy to have one-tenth of the careers that they've had," he said. "But people weren't comparing me to their talent; they were comparing me to their girth." Peck went on a weight loss journey when he was 16, dropping more than 70 pounds in 18 months, but still struggled with self-esteem, leading him to battle substance abuse and addiction. Thankfully, he got sober thanks to Alcoholics Anonymous and has continued to thrive. Related: According to Celebrity Net Worth, Josh Peck's net worth in 2025 is estimated at about $6 million. By "royalties," you likely actually mean "residuals." And no, he doesn't: He told Trade Secrets that there "are no residuals on kids' television." That said, when the show ended, he still got some pay for a time. He explained, "It was like we had 18 months of runway, you know. It's as though someone had lost their job." Related: Peck revealed on the Trade Secrets podcast that he made about $15,000 per episode of Drake & Josh. "You live with about $450,000 over five years, which breaks down to a little less than $100,000 a year—now, certainly a great amount of money, but not enough to set you up for life," he said of his payday for the Nickelodeon series. "And a lot of it, we lived on, and I'm not gonna brag: My mom and I had a used BMW 5 series. We lived in a two-bedroom apartment with amenities." With an estimated net worth of $6 million, Peck is plenty wealthy. Related: After Drake & Josh ended, Peck continued acting, including on other Nickelodeon shows like iCarly and Victorious as Josh Nichols. He's a prolific voice actor, providing his pipes for Eddie in the Ice Age franchise, Casey Jones in the 2013-2017 iteration of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series and more. In terms of live-action projects, Peck starred in Grandfathered alongside , How I Met Your Father and the Disney+ TV adaptation of Turner & Hooch. He's also guest-starred in Fuller House and Pitch and appeared in the ensemble drama Oppenheimer, among other movies, and starred in the Netflix musical comedy 13. In 2022, Peck released his memoir Happy People Are Annoying. Peck is also an influencer on Instagram, creating sponsored content for mega-brands like HBO, Enfamil and Babylist, as well as on YouTube, where he boasts more than 3.4 million subscribers. He co-hosts the Good Guys podcast with comedian Ben Soffer and previously hosted Curious With Josh Peck. Related: Peck's payday for Oppenheimer isn't publicly known, but it's safe to say the prestige from that movie may pay off in its overall impact on his resume—and he said so himself, though not in so many words. Peck played real-life Manhattan Project scientist Kenneth Bainbridge in the film, which won a slew of Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director for Nolan, Best Actor for and Best Supporting Actor for . He previously told Parade that working alongside Murphy and in the critically lauded historical drama was a "masterclass." "I love being around people who are operating at a high level so I can basically steal from them," he said. "I'm trying to figure out all their cheat codes and their hacks, so getting to just watch these greats operate at that high level was an honor. And I'm very proud to be a part of it. Any time I have an opportunity to work with someone like that who I really look up to, I run at it." Up Next:

George Clooney On His Wife Amal: "I Feel Extraordinarily Lucky To Have Met This Incredible Woman"
Los Angeles: In a decade into marriage, Hollywood star George Clooney revealed that he and his wife Amal have never had an argument and added that the actor feels extraordinarily lucky to have met his spouse. Speaking to host Gayle King of CBS Mornings, the 63-year-old actor said, "I remember we were here with you once before, and I remember we said we'd never had an argument. We still haven't. We're trying to find something to fight about! He added, "I feel so extraordinarily lucky to have met this incredible woman. I feel as if I hit the jackpot. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think I'm the luckiest man in the world. So it's great." The couple are parents to seven-year-old twins Alexander and Ella and the actor loves being in their company, reports Clooney said, "Our kids are seven, about to be eight, which is a pretty great age. They're really curious and funny. Every parent thinks their kids are great — our kids are funny and make us laugh." George had made his point about never arguing when he and Amal appeared on CBS Mornings back in September 2022. Saying that maintaining their marriage is easy, he said at the time, "Like, the easiest thing in our lives by far. We've never had an argument." Amal agreed, "It's maddening to some of our friends. I have a cousin, actually, every time we see him he's like, his first question is, 'So have you had an argument yet?', before he says hello." Gayle replied, "Seriously? You've never had an argument?" George quipped, "Would you like us to right now? Would that make you feel better?" And amid the COVID-19 pandemic in December 2020, the former E.R. actor admitted he felt very lucky that being in lockdown hadn't really tested his marriage. George Clooney said, "I feel very lucky in so many ways to have met her. We haven't ever had an argument. You know, everybody's been slammed together because of the coronavirus and a lot of friends' relationships have been tested. For us, it's been really easy."

George Clooney Issues 2-Word Warning to Broadway Audiences
George Clooney may be the proud recipient of two Academy Awards, but that doesn't mean he doesn't still have plenty to learn about his craft. Case in point: What it's like to star in a Broadway show. After three weeks of previews, Clooney's new—and very first—Broadway play opened at New York City's Winter Garden Theatre on April 3 (with plenty of his A-list friends in the audience, though wife Amal was noticeably absent). But the former E.R. star found a way to share a bit of the self-deprecating humor he's so well known for in the production's People Magazine reports, the star's bio has begun to go viral both for its brevity and for its levity. All told, it's less than 30 words. After identifying Clooney as both the star and playwright, his bio reads: 'George's last time in an Equity theatre was in June of 1986, a play called Vicious at Steppenwolf Theatre. He has never appeared on Broadway so… buckle up.' Given that the play is based on the 2005 film of the same name—a biopic of legendary television journalist Edward R. Murrow—which Clooney co-wrote and directed, something tells us he knows what he's doing here. And so far, the reviews have confirmed that. The New York Times praised Clooney's ability to play Murrow 'with wit, integrity, and charming modesty' while Variety wrote that the beloved actor 'has a deeply felt command of character and a riveting presence.' Which makes one think that, though appreciated, the 'buckle up' warning might have been unnecessary.
