More Injuries On Set
Filed under: Film Flickers
Is the set of the new James Bond movie cursed????
For the second time in one week, an accident has occurred while filming Quantum of Solace.
Just a few days ago, last Saturday, while filming in the Italian resort of Lake Garda, a stuntman was severely injured when an Aston Martin went off the road and fell into the lake. Producers said the driver only suffered minor injuries, thankfully.
Now, a new incident has occurred when a stuntman crashed into another stuntman during a car chase sequence while speeding on a winding lakeside road.
One of the stuntmen was immediately taken to the hospital after suffering serious head injury and underwent surgery. The second stuntman was slightly injured.
Head injury = not pretty.
Either they need to hire better stuntmen or they need to make their stunts safer!

Re: df –
No, I'm talking about the first one he brings up–the one that happened a few days ago at the italian resort.

WTF PEREZ!?!!!!!?!?!?!
The driver suffered SERIOUS injuries but the producers said he only suffered minor injuries!?!
You're a stupid fucking asshole!
ITS ALL FOR OUR ENTERTAINMENT KEEP IT UP. THEY SHOULD HIRE AMERICAN STUNTMEN LIKE MYSELF.
Re: Cassie – Now your lame ass life is complete. Schmuk!!
This is just getting ridiculous now. Why in the heck aren't they taking precautions?
uhhhh…. POOR GUYS NEED MORE RESPECT.
Re: geez – uh and urs is dude??
Re: Cassie – ohhhhhhh…….My bad!
Bond is hott for summer poor stuntmen get well soOoN.. or better yet have tight short man blondie daniel huh craig do his OWN stunts!
Wow, Perez, your comments are so insightful.
the stuntman and the driver are different people. the stuntman was seriously injured but the driver wasn't, its not that complicated.
Re: arm pitts brother – What's your problem??
“a stuntman was severely injured when an Aston Martin went off the road and fell into the lake. Producers said the driver only suffered minor injuries, thankfully”.
Nice reporting
THAT'S GOD TELLING THEM TO STOP MAKING THOSE HORRIBLE BOND MOVIES!!!!!!!!
Garda isn't a resort.. It's a Lake, as the name says. Lake Garda.

Regrading the first accident:
How can you be 'severely injuried' after suffering from 'minor injuries?'
Fuck the stuntmans, I live in the area and a couple of days ago my father nearly got killed by one of them driving the wrong side of the road… they have been driving around like crazy, they have been fined by the police many times..sorry but thay were looking for it!!! Just go away from here!!!!
I smell publicity stunt to gather some talk about how real the car chases are in the new 007 movie
I doubt very highly it was a stunt man's fault, or that they aren't "good" enough.
Stunts are very difficult, and the reason for stunt doubles is so the actors don't get injured, it's a sincerely difficult job, and I have to give props to the people who do it!
Get well soon to the injured peeps on this film
he's cute
they probably momentarily lost concentration staring at the gorgeousness that is Daniel Craig. (Joking aside, I hope they are ok).
This movie is gonna kick ass!
wtf?? Can you idiots read?? In the first incident a stuntman was injured, but nothing major. In the second incident there were TWO stuntmen who crashed into one another. One was seriously injured, one wasn't. How the hell is this so hard to understand? Oh, and as for the "cursed" set…give me an f'n break. They are stuntmen!!! They get hurt for a living. How is this weird in any way, shape, or form?
"severely injured….but suffered minor injuries."
what the fuck?
At least they aren't using CGI…. Hopefully we see some phenomenal car chases. The top slot in my opinion still belongs to Ronin, with The French Connection a close second.
