Jet Fuel Was Found In Miles Teller’s Blood While Filming Top Gun No, That’s Not A Metaphor

TikTok’s favourite white boy of the month Miles Teller has revealed he had legit jet fuel in his blood while filming Top Gun: Maverick. I mean that in a literal, medical-mystery way and not in a metaphorical way, just so we’re clear. Teller was being interviewed on  about his role in . You know, the one where he does that ? Anyway, in the interview Teller talked about filming a specific pilot sequence for the flick. “We landed and I though ‘Man, I’m not feeling too good’,” he said, . “I was really hot and I just started itching like crazy. So I got out of the jet. “I’m just covered in hives — head to toe.” Miles Teller said he went to a doctor and got blood analysis work done. “I’m in an oatmeal bath that night. I have sensitive skin anyway truth be told, Irish-Scottish skin,” he said. I hate to relate but man, I do. Wildly, when the blood test results came back it turned out Miles Teller had “flame-retardant, pesticide and jet fuel” in his blood. Not a good combination to have swirling around in there, I’d say. Even wilder than the blood test results was co-star response on set the next day. According to Teller, Cruise asked him what the docs found in his blood. “I was like, ‘Well Tom, it turns out I have jet fuel in my blood’,” Teller said. “And without even skipping a beat Tom goes, ‘Yeah, I was born with it, kid’. So that was a very Tom moment for me.” Ugh. I just did a full body shudder. Tom Cruise is giving IRL corny action movie dialogue there, which is probably why so many dads love him. In fairness to Miles Teller, I think any human person would probably experience an allergic reaction if they had a cocktail of fuels in their blood. I have to ask though — how the fuck do you end up with jet fuel inside you in the first place?
