emily describe the word use the word unfathomable to describe what happened. given the job that you do, is it unfathomable that this kind of thing could have resulted in death, in this kind of injury? i mean, personally, i don t understand how live guns are even used on a set. i didn t think guns were live on movie sets, right? everything else can be fake. right. right. that s aer jo misconception that a lot of people have. as i have said before a lot of times you will go on set and weapons are handled as props, and they should never be handled as props. any of these firearms that are firing blanks are real firearms. they are, you know, the real thing. some of them, if they are modern, have been converted mechanically to be able to fire blanks. and some of the older ones that are used in period pieces require no conver. they are simply loaded with blanks and mechanically discharged through a mechanism.
