A 23-year old stuntman was killed and six others injured in a fire while shooting an action scene in director John Woo's Chinese historical epic, "Red Cliff".

The accident occurred Monday morning while filming an action sequence in Beijing, China.

A small boat was set ablaze and collided with a larger boat as the filmmakers had intended, but the fire quickly raged out of control and engulfed both ships killing the stuntman and injuring six.

The crew is deeply distraught and is full of regret about the incident. They are making every effort to make arrangements for the deceased, his family and the six injured crew members.

this is tragic! another case of bruce lee's death. condolence for the lost, and may he rest in peace.

I've noticed over the years as a martial artist myself that there is a recurring stream of accidents in the film industry. Bruce Lee; which in my opinion was an assassinaton along with brandon years later. This may just be an accident, but none the less is very disheartening and true tragidy. Prayers to the families and may the future be safer.
