Worst Day on set like EVER!

[Wilbur Eddings]

So...
We start our day off with our DP having food poisoning.
Closely followed by me spraining my ankle so badly bloody badly! I'm at the hospital now getting a moon boot thingie.
Then our 'go pro unit' does a full two hours of work on a special scene and (drumroll) both go pros fail.

But wait... There's more!

AJA malfuntions on the F3 and we don't have P2 cards plus Ninja has not arrived yet.

Ended up trying to shoot a (static) shot or two on the Af100 and 7D.

All in all a really crap day!

Anyone else had similar fun recently?

I was at a friend's place drinking beer by the pool. I ran out of beer.

That's probably not what you were looking for, though.

What kind of drugs did they give you at the hospital?

We once inadvertently blew up a *very* expensive pyro miniature thanks to a board malfunction, before cameras were rolling on it. That was probably the worst day on set, for a number of the people involved...
