Two months after suffering her injury on the final season of Game of Thrones, Casey Michaels was one of 80 performers asked to contribute £300 towards a gift for Irlam for keeping the team safe. Although they were told the collection, which potentially raised £24,000, was voluntary and would “not impact any future employment,” Michaels believes the opposite is true. “Everybody knew there would be repercussions for not paying,” she says.

This Rowley Irlam comes across like a corrupt, arrogant arsehole.

Michaels and a group of other performers were asked to drop approximately 12 feet into a landing rig of cardboard boxes and crash mats

they were not allowed to spot their landings because they were zombies.

changes were made to the landing rig between takes ... thick crash mats were swapped for thinner alternatives, while two other performers recalled that the landing rig felt less secure on the second take.

As she walked off the ledge for the second take, Michaels claims that she fell blind into a landing rig that had been changed without warning. Michaels was the last performer to step off the ledge. Twenty-six others fell before her, meaning the adapted rig had been impacted repeatedly before she dropped.

“I hit the floor and heard my bones breaking underneath me,”

9.4m, including legal fees. Hope there was a good chunk left after that. Utter gross negligence, horrible the coordinator thinks he did nothing wrong and there isn't more recourse, no license to remove no firing.

This is terrifying, that your life could be destroyed by a colleagues indefensible negligence.

Very informative article 👍
