This is what the stuntman's sister-in-law had to say of their anger towards the movie trailer, while others in his family are also furious of the footage, the stuntman's sister-in-law really does not seem to happy to hear that his accident was a stint to support the comedy. More below.



The family of a stuntman injured while filming The Hangover: Part II have blasted the movie’s bosses for allegedly allowing footage of the scene to be used in the film’s trailer.


Australian Scott McLean, whose film credits include The Matrix and Ghost Rider, was shooting a daring road stunt in Thailand as a body double for actor Ed Helms in December when a truck and a car collided.


He received treatment for a severe brain injury and was later moved to a hospital in Bangkok, where he was reportedly placed in a medically-induced coma

McLean is still recovering from the accident at a hospital in Sydney and his family has been left furious after the scene which left him fighting for his life was included in the promo footage.


His sister-in-law Michelle McLean tells Australian publication The Sun-Herald, “To have that scene used in the preview is a real kick in the face to all those who know Scott.


“It is sickening to watch, as we all know what happens next.”

[frick]ing Hollywood capitalists, I despise you. And you people here, who the [frick] you think you are for taking the rights not to defend social sensitivity. You, Americans, are one sick society. The guy could die and it would be at least [frick]ing polite not to show off his death to earn you movie money. Think about it, take your time

I have thought it through plenty, I am sadistic when it comes to thinking. This guy is a stunt man, danger is part of the job, you know how many movie stunts go horribly wrong, yet are still kept in the final product? Lots! and those stunt man and woman love it. This guy is being a baby about. If he cant handle the risks, its time he changed jobs.
