Matt Damon injured by his 14-month-old daughter

On screen, he's an ultra-tough, international assassin -- constantly on the run from big, scary dudes that want him dead. But in real life, the only person putting Matt Damon in physical danger is his 14-month-old daughter.

Apparently the 36-year-old father arrived in Berlin this week (for the German premiere of The Bourne Ultimatum) with a pinched nerve. He barely made it through the movie with four acupuncture needles in his ear, and had to skip the after party due to the pain. Rumor has it Damon left Germany in a neck brace.

So what happened?

The actor told a German newspaper that he injured himself while feeding his daughter, and holding her while she slept.

I may not know the pain of crashing through fourth-story windows while being chased by trained CIA killers, but I completely understand baby-related neck injuries.

In a small way, I think this makes me an action hero, too.
