Filmmaking Can Be Hazardous To Your Health
We mentioned a while ago that it seems like the set of the new James Bond movie is cursed.
People have been injured and taken to the hospital several times.
Well, it's happened AGAIN!
This time, however, it was Bond himself who was injured.
The current James, Daniel Craig, has just suffered an injury. He sliced off the tip to one of his finger tips while filming an action sequence.
Poor guy, but ewww!!!! And a big OUCH too!
A production team member said, "There was quite a lot of blood and it was decided he needed to go to hospital for emergency treatment. Some people are beginning to believe the film is jinxed."
Craig was taken to the hospital and that same afternoon, after slicing off his finger tips, he was back on set to resume filming.
What a trooper!
And then over the weekend, a fire broke out which caused severe damage on an outdoor set.
Past films have had bad luck on set as well. Even as early as 1967, a stuntman working with Sean Connery on You Only Live Twice, lost both his legs in the rotor blades of a helicopter.
Also in 1997 when Pierce Brosnan was left scarred filming Tomorrow Never Dies, when he was hit by fragments of a bullet.
Let's hope no one else gets hurt.
It's just a movie!

One Night In Toronto
ouch!
FIRST!?!?
nice.
not first
And I think father time has come to plague the set by aging bond in the seqeul.
Maybe the next one will be in the nursing home, Will his hurt finger work the wheelchair? We'll have to see
I will say he's sexy. Gotta love Bond.
mmmm, that man is fine. all man and nothing but
he's cute though
Tomorrow Never Dies, Pierce reveals: "We were filming a scene where I'm in a fight with some armed guards. It was all carefully choreographed but on the last take, the rim of a guard's helmet smashed into my mouth."
"At first I thought it was just a scratch and carried on. But as I walked off set my mouth opened up like a ripe peach. It looked spectacular, there was blood everywhere!"
Ouch!
Let's hope this movie does good for Craig's sake.
Not to mention that Halle Berry injured her eye on the set of the Bond film she was in…wow there might just be a conspiracy!
Poor guy I hope he comes back and does well on the movie!!hearing that he Slicied off his finger tips makes everyone cringe!
So Zexy!!!!!! OMG I am going to marry him in my next life…haha. But OOOUCH!!!! What a trooper indeed!(even more zexy!!)
AWWW Did poor little Danielle Craig hurt himself??????
Who the F*CK cares, he is the worst Bond EVER!!!!
Did you SEE that last Craig Bond movie? The action sequences were so stacked up that I almost had action sequence overload and faded out mentally. A little calm between the storms would have set up a nicer dynamic, IMHO. It's the rip roaring action that sets up myriad possibilities for accident and injury, and it unfortunately goes with the territory. I guess if you are still superstitious after knowing that injury risk rises commensurate with a high percentage of action scenes, you might call it a 'curse'. I hope he found his fingertip(s.)
He's a sexy man. Although looking at this picture now, he looks kinnda old, How old is he anyways?
Daniel Craig is probably around 40 now. Don't diss older men. They're great in the sack around this age.
It may be "just a movie", but it's a movie with loads of dangerous stunts - always has been, always will! That's how they make their money and reputation as 007 films. Just part of the territory.
I love them Baby Blues!!!
are we supposed to feel f*cking sorry for him???? who the f*ck really cares?? children are forced to perform all kinds of illegal work everyday all over the world. they are the ones we should be concerned with. not some overpaid self indulgent egotistical megalomanical prick!!!
wake up people. actors/musicians/models ARE JUST HUMAN!!!! they shit and piss just like everyone else does. stop idolizing false idols!!!
OMG! Daniel Craig is so YUMMY! But the poor guy getting his fingers chopped off, it's gross! But he's way to hot for that to matter!
i aint gonna lie he is a sexy mofo
I've known about this since this morning. Behind much?
yer an idiot, perez. brosnan was not "hit by fragments of a bullet". they don't use live ammunition of ANY KIND on film sets you stupid douche.
yer an idiot perez. they don't use live ammunition of ANY KIND on film sets. no insurer would ever cover production if they did. brosnan was NOT hit by "bullet fragments" you stupid douche.
oh I would so kiss him better!
Let us not forget the model that was painted gold for Goldfinger who died from asphyxiation from the body paint.
He didn't chop it off! He sliced the tip. He didn't even need stitches. He was only taken to the hospital as a precaution. Quit exaggerating!
1989's 'Licence to Kill' (set in Latin America) was said to be cursed too- apparently they were filming truck stunts on a road where a bus full of nuns had died and things were catching fire and going unexpectedly. Stills from an explosion from that sequence also show what looks like a flaming hand reaching out from the ball of fire.
maybe they just need a better OH&S officer on set… then everyone would stop getting injured..
Actually, cameraman John Jordan had his foot severed by the craft's rotor during filming of You Only Live Twice. He did not lose both legs.
look at his eyes there so beautiful. There like hypnotizing.
Gawd, it hurts to look at him, and not in a good way…he's ugly!!!!!
They refuse to cast characters that are of the real world called "minorities". This is part of the karma backlash!
creepy eyes.
That's kind of ironic because in Mission Impossible Daniel gets his pinky finger cut off by a cigar cutter… And now it actually happens. Hope he gets better soon. I wouldn't mind tending his needs…
awwww Bless……………. &heart;
Daniel Craig is Lovely
Total Gawj icon :L
