While filming a segment for 'Twilight Zone: The Movie', a sequence involving a helicopter went disastrously wrong, resulting in the fatal injuries of actor Vic Morrow and two child actors, Myca Dinh Le and Rachel Crothers. The production was taking place in a remote area near Santa Clarita, California, where extensive pyrotechnic effects and special effects were incorporated into the scene. On that fateful day, as the helicopter flew low over the outdoor set, a sequence involving a dramatic rescue turned catastrophic. The helicopter's pilot attempted to evade a planned explosion on set, leading to the helicopter crashing and fatally striking the three individuals on the ground. The tragic accident raised immediate concerns about safety protocols in the film industry, especially regarding the involvement of child actors in high-risk situations. The incident was widely covered in the media, sparking public outcry and discussions concerning the regulations surrounding the usage of explosives and aviation near filming crews. While the movie continued to be released later, the tragedy overshadowed its production and led to a legal investigation into the circumstances that allowed such a dangerous situation to unfold.
