His Right Foot Was So Deformed That He Required Corrective Surgery
George Takei was a runner, and in the 1970s, he was given a pair of running shoes as a gift from a fan who meant well. After that, the actor went on to complete a 6.2-mile run while wearing the shoes. Following that, George’s right foot became so misshapen that he required surgery in order to have it repaired.
The surgical technique performed on George did not provide effects that were lasting, and over time, his foot returned back to the way it had been before the operation. People, this is the rationale behind why you should always break in your shoes before wearing them for the entirety of the day.
