Stuntman Injured on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Set
The 25-year-old stuntman was rehearsing a flying stunt on a harness when he was sent through the air after an explosion, a planned part of the stunt. It was thought that perhaps the stuntman, who was not named, might have caught part of that blast. While he was conscious after hitting the ground, he said, "I can't feel my legs."
"He told crew members who went to help him he couldn't feel anything from the waist down," a source said. "Everyone is just hoping he makes a good recovery. It has come as a terrible shock."
While a spokesperson for the studio confirmed that a member of the production was injured, they wouldn't reveal further details.
"Out of respect for the family we are unable to comment further."
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is currently scheduled for release on November 10, 2010.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 was released November 19th, 2010 and stars Bill Nighy, Emma Watson, Richard Griffiths, Harry Melling, Daniel Radcliffe, Julie Walters, Bonnie Wright, Rupert Grint. The film is directed by David Yates.

i don't think things usually go wrong, if that were the case i don't think there would be as many stunt people. i think things can go wrong and they know that.

Meh read about this in the paper, apparently they reckon the stuntmen is now paralysis from the waistdown.
But they'll probably be updates within the weeks.
