RDJ à la rescousse d'un figurant sur Iron Man 2

Robert Downey Jr's robot rescue

Robert Downey Jr. saved a film extra from a rampaging robot. The 44-year-old actor halted shooting on 'Iron Man 2' and rushed to help the man, who had been injured during a scene. A source said: "Robert charged into a live scene yelling, 'Cut! Cut!' The extra was writhing on the ground in agony after a rampaging evil robot smashed him flat." The extra had been involved in a sequence which saw a group of people running away from a group of robotic villains. Although the man was accidentally hit by a stuntman in an iron costume, filming continued because no-one noticed he was in pain. The source added to the National Enquirer magazine: "Cameras kept cranking until Robert, who wasn't in the scene, suddenly noticed one extra twisting in pain and moaning, 'Help, I've broken something.' " Robert called for paramedics and comforted the man until they arrived. The injured extra was taken to hospital, where he was diagnosed with a broken hip.
