A stuntman filming a scene for a new John Woo movie was burned alive in a bizarre accident during what should have been a routine stunt. Reuters says…
At least three people were injured in the accident during the shooting of the battle epic, "Red Cliff"."The fire broke out early Monday morning when the crew were shooting a scene in which a small, smoking boat crashed with a large ancient war vessel," Xinhua news agency said.At the point of collision, at which machines let out smoke, an unchoreographed flame jumped 30 meters (yards) into the air, the Beijing News said, citing crew at the northern Beijing location.
At least he died peacefully. Being burned alive seems like a good way to go. I saw a guy engulfed in flames the other day, and even though I had a fire extinguisher in my car I didn’t use it at first because I thought he might be that guy from the Fantastic Four. Then a song came on the radio that I really liked. I forget what happened after that. Anyway, how are you today?
