London
(ANI):
After
a
series
of
mysterious
mishaps,
including
a
stuntman
sustaining
serious
head
injuries
during
the
shoot,
rumours
are
abuzz
that
the
latest
Bond
film
has
been
hit
by
a
jinx.
The
shooting
of
Quantum
of
Solace
by
Lake
Garda,
in
northern
Italy,
has
been
suspended
following
the
series
of
near-fatal
accidents
to
a
driver
and
two
stuntmen.
The
first
occurred
early
on
April
19
when
Jonathan
Dunn
Fraser,
an
employee
of
Aston
Martin,
was
delivering
the
DBS
sports
car
to
the
film
set.
As
he
was
driving
along
the
gently
winding
lakeside
road
he
inexplicably
lost
control
of
the
car,
which
smashed
through
a
guardrail
and
into
the
lake.
In
a
second
accident,
on
April
21
during
shooting
of
a
car
chase,
a
stuntman
was
injured.
The
driver
of
the
car
is
currently
in
a
critical
condition
at
a
hospital
in
Verona.
Shooting
was
immediately
suspended
and
it
was
decided
to
stop
filming
on
April
24
as
well,
to
allow
police
to
investigate
the
accident.
A
week
ago
there
was
another
calamity
when
a
man
on
a
bicycle
who
had
stopped
by
the
set
to
watch
filming
suffered
a
heart
attack
and
died.
