What We Know About Blue Bloods Star Tom Selleck's Health Issues

Tom Selleck, born January 29, 1945, may be dealing with some pain now that he is older. He has been candid about the stress his body is under, citing that his discomfort is partly due to the physical demands of his career. He told GQ, “You know, my back’s kind of messed up. When you do stunts in movies — I do a lot of them — you’re taking a risk, but you’re also sitting around a lot … You just see the price of stunts. They weren’t that hard, but I think it’s the stop-and-go of all that stuff.” Selleck also talked about the toll of stunts on his body. “Well, it lets me down from the point of view that I can’t do, or won’t do, what I used to,” he added. 

That’s a fact. Four decades ago, in August 1983, Selleck was teaching his son Kevin Selleck how to drive in a parking deck when the gear shift malfunctioned. UPI reports that the father and son crashed 20 feet from the third floor onto a trailer. The very next day, Selleck — who sported minor injuries — was back filming “Magnum P.I.” The actor, who was 38 years old at the time, had no trouble recovering from a not-for-TV collision and was back at work as if nothing had happened. Yikes! With a history like this, it’s no wonder Selleck’s back may be calling for a time-out now.
