Stuntman dies on set of Expendables 2

Other than the sad and questionable nature of bringing this film back for a sequal there was a stunt that went horribly wrong as it left one stuntman dead and another having to be sent to hospital and he is now reportadly in a stable but critical condition.

According to Deadline Hollywood the incident happened on Thursday at a little after 7:00pm local time as the second unit stunt team were filming a scene that involved an explosion. The location for this filming was on reservoir Ognyanovo, 15 miles outside of Bulgaria's capital Sofia.

The local police has now launched an official investigation into the incident.

This incident reportedly happened while the main unit, including the director Simon West as well as the star producer Sylvester Stallone  were filming in the picturesque village resort of Bansko which is 2 1/2 hours away from where the actual incident took place.

Nu Image/Millenium Films (the production company behind this film), has put out an official statement for this saying that:

"Our hearts go out to the families and those on the production affected by this tragedy . The filmmakers are working closely with the authorities in responding to and investigating this accident."
