I guess I was living in a different bubble this summer, I had no idea that there was another accident on Spider-Man. Its amazing to me that such harm can happen and all they can say is it was human error. I do wonder what safeguards have been put in place to prevent this from happening again. You would think that where there can be human error in a mechanical situation there would also be computerized safeguards. Although you can't always guarantee the safety of artists whether it be by humans or computers, I would hope that I should not hear of another injury again on Spider-Man for some time now. Working on a high stakes show this summer it still amazes me about how many injuries I have heard of and that happen at Spider-Man. Hopefully all of these injuries will be in the past and it won't be remembered as a show that hurt so many.
