Cripes, those SyFy movies are dangerous

It seems most Stargate actors are off doing wretched SyFy movies in out-of-the-way (aka cheap) locations, and now one of them was badly injured in the process.

Corin Nemec was in a boat crash in Belize, and broke his femur in three places (!)and lost a lot of blood. Luckily, he survived. Others, including the lead actor, were injured. No mention of names. Full details at http://7newsbelize.com/sstory.php?nid=24537.

Gads, think it's time to bring all these flicks back to filming in the States/Canada where there are stricter laws and regulations...

Hope Corin recovers; a break that bad could leave a permanent injury.

They get away with a lot (saving money) filming in places that don't have strict rules.
not only that, there's nothing like OSHA (occupational safety and health administration) to go investigate what happened to try to make sure it doesn't happen again. if i recall, the police there (hong kong?) blamed him for the accident. said he was reckless or drunk or something.

Wouldn't want to be blamed for a popular actors death after all. I doubt he was a reckless person after all he survived years until he went to film there!
