According to Deadline Hollywood and an official statement from Paramount has said that on the New Orleans set for this film GI Joe:Retribution "an unusual accident" has occurred.
This accident has led to death of one of the hired crew hands Mike Huber.
TMZ reported that Mike Huber was working on rearing sown the set using a high powered scissor lift, and the machine tipped over leading to him being tipped over and sustaining fatal injuries.
Paramount has said that:
"The safety of our cast and crew is our top priority and the studio is fully cooperating with all investigating agencies as they examine the circumstances surrounding this unusual accident".
I think at the end of this report by Deadline that with saying how on the set of Paramounts' Transformers 3 in October 2010, that a stunt car accident went horribly wrong and nearly killed a locally hired extra, that safety may not be that Paramount of both cast and crew on their film sets...sorry about the pun but I just couldn't resist!
But there could also be some spooky goings on as it was also reported by Deadline that a stuntman was killed on the set of the sequel to Expendables 2...Oogy boogy boogy!
