Cripes, those SyFy movies are dangerous

[wraithfodder]

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.

Never heard about that. No, I read about this other tourist several years back in some article on health care.

It's probably pretty much the same deal. Emergency medicine is free to all - citizens, permanent residents and tourists alike. USians always seem to be stunned by only having to pay for their pain meds...

Luckily never got injured while in UK, but yeah, would definitey have been shocked if I'd had free medical care.
