Quote ROME, Italy -- Actor Jim Caviezel, who plays Jesus in Mel Gibson's controversial film "The Passion of Christ" was struck by lightning during shooting. Caviezel was uninjured, but a producer described how he saw smoke coming from the actor's ear. An assistant director on the film, Jan Michelini, was also hit -- for the second time in a few months. Talk about your divine intervention. :) Title: Re: Lightning strikes The Passion Post by: Thomas Mink on 2004-04-30, 16:44 I heard about that a long time ago... nothing new to me.

Title: Re: Lightning strikes The Passion Post by: l4mby on 2004-04-30, 19:31 Haha ... being struck by lightning is a rare occurance. Being stuck by it twice is, well, slim to none chances there.

Title: Re: Lightning strikes The Passion Post by: Phoenix on 2004-05-01, 05:18 Photos? Of a lightning strike? Surely you jest... if anyone could predict it well enough to get a camera shot then they need to play the lottery and not be taking pictures.
Caviezel was filming during the scene where he was on the cross when he got struck by lightning, and was completely unharmed. Quite fascinating that, no? Title: Re: Lightning strikes The Passion Post by: shambler on 2004-05-03, 17:23 If he was filming, then wheres the photos I say again.
PS. I uesd to do a lot of lightning shot, You just use a long exposure, and close the lens after the strike has been. You get about 3 shots per film, with exposers of about 4 minutes at f5.6, with a 28mm lens. :D |
