A stuntman is in a stable condition after crashing a car while making the new James Bond film, Quantum of Solace.

Aris Comninos suffered head injuries when he crashed an Alfa Romeo during a chase sequence on a notoriously winding road near Lake Garda in northern Italy.

"He is still in hospital in a stable condition and doing as well as can be expected," a film spokesman said.

The accident was the second on the Bond set in four days, after an Aston Martin skidded into a lake on Saturday.

I often wondered how they created so many dangerous scenes in movies without people getting killed but it seems that sometimes people do get injured. They would need to be paid quite a bit of danger money to carry out many of these stunts.

Would you like to be in a Bond movie? And would you take on these dangerous stunts or would you refuse. Personally I value my life too much and I wouldnt take the risk no matter how much I was being paid.

I hope the stuntman recovers from his injuries. I'm sure they do get paid good money for what they do. I think the type of person who decides to do a job like that must like the excitement of being in potentially dangerous situations.

James Bond movies are well known for their car chase sequences and I suppose they have to get more thrilling each time.

Yes some people do get a buzz from being in dangerous situations, and I agree that there is the scenes must get more dramatic each film to improve upon the previous film. It is the competition like this that is pushing actors to their limit and putting them in more and more danger, but it is their decision whether they decide to take on these roles.
