[Paul Hudson]

How many thing can you find wrong with this! Did any one die?

his shirt, laptop, and the back of the softbox isn't closed. what idiots! did i win???

 

[Macville]

Lack of sandbags on both stands and improper use of sand bag on the one stand...

 

[thekeygun]

why is that tripod on wheels?

 

[David G. Smith]

Besides no water proofing on the stingers to the lights, horrible stand configuration and no sandbags on the Fresnel behind the actor, which is WAY too close to the pool edge. I don't think that the boomed soft box is properly weighed down. And the unattended jib arm is not very confidence inspiring. That monitor on the pool floor is dangerous also. Wow. Where did you get that pic?

 

[thekeygun]

whoa! what if one of the lights falls in the pool. aaaaaaaaaa!

 

[TimurCivan]

there is a unsealed stinger connection directly on the ground, and they arent propped up with Apple boxes.

The stands arent double bagged, and there isnt a PA standing by ready to break the connection in the event of a short. (ie light fallls in water)

 

[adamrahn]

I used to have that computer, they're heavy enough he could have used that to weigh down one of those lights. also, no bikinis anywhere to be seen

 

[slondon]

Wow! That scares the crap out of me. I can't see anything that's safe.

If I were on that set I would want GFI (ground-fault interrupters) on all the mains power lines. No PA, however quick and conscientious, is fast enough to keep anybody from possible electrocution in case of accident or failure.
