'Transformers 2' director Michael Bay saved Shia LaBeouf's fingers

At today's "Transformers 2" news conference, director Michael Bay talked about the day he found out (by watching CNN) about Shia LaBeouf's car crash and hand injury and how he found world experts to come up with a special Keflar case for Shia's fingers to prevent him from losing the use of that hand forever.

But Shia's sexy co-star Megan Fox talks about how lucky they all were that the brave actor went "balls to the wall" (her words) and was a total professional, acting with an injury as if he didn't even have one.

And Tyrese answers an embarrassed reporter's ringing iPhone during the news conference while Megan lets another reporter know that his tape recorder has stopped working.

Are these actors nice or what?
