The set of ‘Quantum of Solace’ the latest Bond flick is proving to be a little unlucky for the films stunt drivers. Last weekend, one of the stunt drivers dropped an Aston Martin DBS into a lake in Italy and escaped with minor injuries – unfortunately the same cannot be said for the DBS. The video below shows that the DBS definitely came out the worst for wear in this little incident.

Following the ‘Aston incident’ comes news that there has been a second crash on set. This time though, the driver is in a serious condition and filming by the second unit has been suspended while the accident is investigated.

The accident occurred during the filming of a chase scene between an Alfa Romeo and Bond’s DBS. The film’s budget director while no-doubt concerned about the injured driver, is we suspect grateful that it was an Alfa Romeo that hit the wall and not another Aston Martin DBS.
