If You Ever Wondered If Actors Take Things From Sets, The Answer Is Yes — Here Are 22 Celebs Who Went On The Record With The Props They Took

Here are some things that actors have admitted to taking from set:
1. Daniel Radcliffe took home a lot of props from the Harry Potter movie sets, including some pairs of his iconic glasses, but the strangest thing he kept was his boneless fake arm from Chamber of Secrets.
