If Mark Wahlberg had been on that doomed 9-11 flight, would he have been keeled over throwing up into a barf bag or fighting terrorists? Mark “Invincible” Wahlberg suffers from chronic motion sickness, on both land: "The cars were a blast to drive. But I had to be in the passenger seat a couple times. I got sick probably four or five times because Charlize is ridiculously crazy behind the wheel. In a stick shift it's just, ‘Voom ... voom ... voom.' I don't want to even shake now to demonstrate because I got sick this morning,” and on the water, with even George Clooney making fun of him: "It wasn't dangerous at all, it was never dangerous. It was a drag getting wet all the time but that wasn't dangerous. It was dangerous working with Mark though because he could throw up on you from 15 feet away and still hit you."

Maybe is his “air legs” aren’t as wobbly.
