No. Not the big budget movie that is in the works, but rather a web series actor.

To any artists out there, you are well award of the term, “suffer for your art.”  Those pain-staking nights spent huddled over your craft, sleep is but a far off dream, and you just can’t stop until you have reached a breaking point or finish the damn thing. WEell, here is the other meaning for the well-known term.  23-year-old Columbus man Sam Vestey was shot in the leg by accident while making an amateur Deadpool web series.

Vestey and friends, Casey May and Michael Galusick, were filming a scene for their fan-made Deadpool series in the basement of a house when a real gun they were using as a prop fired and struck Vestey in the leg.  Can we hear a Douche of the Week award coming?  The men had used the gun for previous projects, and had believed it to be unloaded.  Ah, and there it is.

No one is sure which of the men was holding the gun at the time of the incident, however it is generally believed to be an accident and not malicious. Said Vestey in an interview, “As he was holding it, it slipped from his hands and when he reached for it, it caught the trigger and it discharged into my leg.”

Vestey acknowledges that all things considered, he got off very easily. No criminal charges have been filed as a result of the incident, and Vestey appears to harbor no hard feelings. In fact, Vestey has said that he would be open to appearing in another episode of the series.

HOORAY!  Let’s hear it for continuity!

OK.  What did we learn today, boys and girls?  That’s right.  If you’re going to be making movies, professional or amateur, you ALWAYS FUCKING GET AN ARMORER ON YOUR FUCKING SET!  Even if the gun is fake, if you are serious about making movies, you get an armorer.  They are there for a fucking reason.  Jesus tap dancing on frog while eating a subway sammitch Christ!

In the meantime, here is an episode of the web show.

After watching this I am so happy someone came to their sense and shot someone.
