George Hodel
This doctor's connection to an infamous 1947 murder was not known until 2003, when a police recording surfaced that contained his admission of guilt (and admission of killing his secretary to cover it up). In 2018, another unearthed document showed that police had protected him during their investigation despite being given evidence of his guilt. Go »

Tom Hanks
Be careful flying anywhere with this actor! His characters' planes have gone down in the Hudson River, the Pacific Ocean, the World Trade Center, San Francisco, and North Africa. They've had other plane trouble while pursuing a fake pilot, passing through customs in a terminal, getting his pocket picked by spies at an airport, discovering his kid has flown to see the Empire State Building, overcoming jet lag in Saudi Arabia, and escaping from a toy collector. He can't even seem to fly safely when his characters are in a modified children's wagon or a doomed NASA spacecraft. Go »

Paul Reiser
Switching between drama like Diner, comedy like Beverly Hills Cop, action like Aliens, and horror like Stranger Things might have given a lesser actor whiplash, but despite this one's versatility, he remains best known for two sitcoms, as a second dad in the 1980s and a mad husband in the 1990s. Go »
