Radcliffe Speechless on Broken Stunt Double

Posted Jan 30th 2009 9:28AM by TMZ Staff

If a stuntman -- doing a stunt for YOU -- had a terrible accident on the set of YOUR movie -- and was so badly hurt, that his condition's been described as "critical" for several days ... wouldn't you wanna say something about the situation??

Not Daniel Radcliffe -- dude kept his magical trap shut in New York yesterday -- both times -- when we asked how stuntman David Holmes was doing.

FYI -- Holmes -- who was injured during an aerial stunt for the upcoming Harry Potter movie -- has just been transferred to a medical specialist in London who could further examine the damage to his back and legs.

3. Maybe the name of the stunt is Valdemort and he can´t say anything about it.

Give this guy a break TMZ.

5. He probably knows as much as we do and even if he did know more, he probably can't talk about it due to insurance reasons.

6. he is prolly just a tool and doesnt care since there is only 1 of him but lots of stunt doubles

7. You know there's going to be a lawsuit - prob the first thing that happened, even before ambulance showed up, is studio reps contacting all principles and telling them to keep their traps shut.

8. Why is the stuntman's medical condition of any concern to AOL/TIMEWARNER/LEVIN? Shouldn't that be a private matter?

9. Um - you guys are really arrogant/stupid if you think someone is going to talk about a coworker's critical condition with TMZ. It's not Daniel Radcliffe who has the problem - it's you for asking an inappropriate/non of your business question.

10. Why should he talk about it? A stunt double knows the dangers of the job so TMZ, get ovah it!!

11. Maybe his lawyer told him to not say anything. Duh.

12. Have you ever heard of HIPPA LAWS? It is illegal to discuss other people's medical conditions. He could be sued for it if he did. I suggest you "journalists" find something more newsworthy to harass people about.

13. The insane ignorance and stupidity of TMZ reporters use to amaze me....now I'm just amused. AS IF Daniel had anything to do with the injury? He's just an actor in the movie not the producer or director. It's not his money to be throwing around in lawsuits and anything he says could come back to haunt him.....I truly think sometimes TMZ is being run by a bunch of 15 year olds.

14. i'm sure at some point he will say something about it. but to legitimate press. not to you vultures. suck it!

15. maybe he didn't answer because he doesn't like being harrassed on the street into revealing private medical information.
