'Scooby Doo' 911 Call - 'I'm Bleeding Quite Badly'

YOU GOTTA HEAR THIS: TMZ has obtained the gnarly 911 call made after Nick Palatas -- who plays Shaggy in a new "Scooby Doo" movie -- sliced his thumb open with a table saw.



Palatas -- who had been working with the saw at his house in Northridge, CA back in September -- made the frantic call himself ... telling the dispatcher he "cut it all the way down to the bone ... I must have cut a half-inch off my finger ... I'm bleeding quite badly."

When the dispatcher asks Palatas if he's breathing normally, the actor replies: "I'm trying to keep it as normal as possible, sir, it hurts like f**k!!" Palatas was eventually taken to the hospital and sewn up.

We give this call two mangled thumbs up.

9. This is news??? WTF!!
Where's the real news? Why does TMZ spout trash about celebs or humiliating shots but nothing when they do something good for themselves? You guys had pics of K-fed all over the place when he ballooned in weight, yet a British tabloid is actually showing pics of his losing weight and how. Yeah he's not a top dog celeb but at least he did something about it which is an inspiration to those who aren't. (Kirstie maybe?)
