OT:Broke My Arm Location Scouting

MH_Stevens wrote on 11/8/2006, 10:11 AM

Two weeks ago I was climbing rocks in the Santa Rosa mountains just outside Palm Springs, planning a nature shoot there and I fell. Banged up both arms and twisted ankle but though it meant no more than a bruises and pain killers for a few days but the pains have got worse and yesterday xray confirmed broke Humorous. Luckily I was not carrying a camera. The last time I fell which was 20 years ago I was carrying a camera and I fell on top of it a fractured a couple of ribs.

Broken bones are no fun, I wen t for years without breaking any and then did several all in one hit.
Hopefully wherever you are the weather is cool, casts and hot humid weather are not a good mix.
And do take care, too many people get hurt or worse in this game.

Sorry to hear about your accident. Godspeed in healing.

But did you find a great place for the shoot? Or have you decided to stay away from there?

Sorry, trying to bring a little laughter to a bad situation!

Not good, all that stunt work and no rolling camera, fire the DP.

Best wishes for a quick recovery!
