Whats the US take on it? If only the camera crew had guns they could've defended the crew from the bullets?
Been a while since Brandon Lee died in a similar fashion but i remember watching something about how that supopsedly happened.
Apparantly when you shoot blanks, sometimes there is a bit left behind in the gun, so if you reload with another blank round, it fires what was left from the previous round and essentially makes it a bullet. In that case it was deemed an error from the stunt coordinator who failed to check properly.
Not sure if its the same with all guns/blanks but a relatively 'simple' mistake has ruined multiple lives.
