I heard about this and another incident where the photographer fell off the cliff and later died or something. My second shooter told me about them so that I will be more cautious when I shoot.

The photographer was only there as a favor to the original photographer. He was filling in because the booking photographer got sick.

Why does the word Mafia immediately pop up in my mind when I read about a shooting accident in Palermo, Sicily?
