| | |  Dan Radcliffe & Tom Felton visit injured stuntman in London hospital
Actors Daniel Radcliffe (who had returned back to the UK on Monday after the run of his Broadway production of Equus had completed) and Tom Felton visited recovering Harry Potter stuntman David Holmes yesterday at the National Orthopaedic Hospital in London.
David, who has played Dan's stunt double throughout the entire Harry Potter series, was injured late last month on set during pre-production of Deathly Hallows, suffering from spinal injuries.
It was stated that both actors "appeared shaken upon leaving the hospital, and with due cause." | |

This was Dan's double, correct? And has he been through all the movies so far?
Yes, and yes. I'll add both facts to the post in case anyone else was wondering.  | |

Wow, that was so sweet of them. see, you learn something new everyday; I didn't know it was his stunt double guess I should read the news more often.
I hope he gets better soon, poor guy.
I'm also curious as to why they appeared "shaken" I hope the injury isn't too too serious.

Dan and Tom are nice guys. It's nice to see the fame hasn't completely gone to their heads.

These guys are the unsung heroes of movies with a fairly big "action" quotient. And it's obvious they're deservedly appreciated by their extended family here. I read Tom's girlfriend was sobbing when they left.

I'm so glad Dan and Tom went to see David. I know it had to brighten his day to see them both.  I hope David continues to recover well.

hey!! no double or triple posting!!
I hope he is not paralyzed....however, both Tom and Dan coming out shaken and Tom's girlfriend was sobbing (read the Daily Mail article about this) tells me that the injury is very severe & paralysis comes to mind based on the earlier info provided.

I always think the same thing whenever I hear "back injury" used.

I'm also glad they visited David. Frankly, it's the least they could do, especially since he has been Daniel's double since the very beginning. I also wonder what part of the movie he was doing the stunt for. Just curious.

One of the reports about the incident mentioned that he was on a broomstick, so it's either the flight battle or the Room of Requirement scene (unless an originally-created scene in which Harry needs to fly has been added in).
