Injured Harry Potter stuntman unlikely to walk again
Sad news, but in case anyone was wondering what was going on:

(quote from the Mirror, linked at ONTD)

Harry Potter stuntman David Holmes has been told it is likely he will never walk again.

David, 28, damaged his spine when a stunt for new film The Deathly Hallows went horribly wrong.

He has been unable to move his legs, hands or arms in the past two months.

A friend said: "Doctors have told him he only has a five per cent chance of recovering movement in his arms and legs. He's devastated but if there is a chance of him walking again I'm sure he will."

David's grandad Charles Case added: "It's right David has been told he has little chance of walking again. It's very upsetting."

David, from Southend, Essex, was the stunt double for star Daniel Radcliffe, who has visited him in hospital.

That's so terrible. As someone else mentioned, here's hoping he's one of the lucky 5%!
