Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
http://www.tmz.com/2011/06/27/avenge...-30-foot-fall/
A stuntman for the new "Avengers" movie nearly lost his entire head last Friday during a 30-foot fall gone horribly wrong -- but thankfully, the guy just lost a bloody chunk of hair instead. |

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Heh you beat me to it Pagan! lol
'Avengers' Stuntman -- SCALPED During 30-Foot Fall 46 minutes ago by TMZ Staff A stuntman for the new "Avengers" movie nearly lost his entire head last Friday during a 30-foot fall gone horribly wrong -- but thankfully, the guy just lost a bloody chunk of hair instead. 0627_avenger_caution_launch Stuntman Jeremy Fitzgerald tells TMZ, his job was simple -- get hit with an arrow and fall 30 feet off a building ... but he caught his foot on the way down, and slammed his head into the brick ... leaving behind a freshly peeled slab of scalp. But it could have been a LOT worse -- according to Jeremy, he narrowly missed a razor sharp rain gutter during the accident. And if all that wasn't bad*** enough -- Jeremy tells us, he went right back to work after the fall ... no hospital, no stitches ... just a bandage.

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Thankfully he's alright. On a more selfish note; hit with an arrow!!!! Hawkeye. Awesome.

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Thats scary stuff there, I just got done reading Vic Armstrong's book. It is ridiculous what these guys do even with injuries. On the other side of the coin for this story, Wooo Hawkeye

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Nearly scalped? What was he doing on ebay? Good thing someone stopped him bidding at the last minute and buying up all the stock of whatever it is he was collecting.

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Hey, if he's a comic nerd he can tout that he got his scars from Hawkeye.

Re: Stuntman nearly scalped on the set
Somebody should have told Hawkeye to stay away from the stun arrows.
The stunt dude deserves some kind of Marvel medal for taking an arrow from The Purple One for the sake of a movie....throw him a one-liner cameo somewhere in there fer cromssake, even if it's just for the blu-ray special edition extras. On a geekier note: wonder who the guy was supposed to be stunt-doubling for? Another Avenger (Thor or Cap would be the most likely bets), or an actual bad guy? (I'm trying to picture him in a Skrull costume.....) |
