The film star said he fell while wearing slippery socks and hit his chin against a granite corner of a fountain, knocking himself out in the process.
After waking up, Efron said he realised his 'chin bone was hanging off his face'.

“I think all of Chris’s fears and insecurities are based on something that I’ve probably felt at one point or another, but I think I’ve acted on them a little bit differently,” he said.
“So it was very fun to bring all those things up to the surface and handle them horribly, and explore what that was like.
“I think they’re real, honest emotions, what he’s experiencing, he just doesn’t know how to process them well, and he doesn’t have, really, too many people around him he can trust other than Zara, so I think she takes the brunt of the things he’s going through.
“He’s handling it the best he can, bless his heart.”
