Sylvester Stallone proved he could be a real-life Rambo recently when he saved his wife, model Jennifer Flavin, and good friend Mira Sorvino from a stalled elevator.

The women were only two of the people stuck between floors in the backstage elevator during the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Love Rocks party last Thursday. The show was at the new Kodak Theater in Hollywood.

Sylvester took off his jacket and manually pulled up the elevator. Pregnant Jennifer and all other passengers were fine when the muscleman pryed open the doors with his own hands too.
