Stunt Men Injured: Two stunt men have been seriously injured in Australia while working on the new Francis Ford Coppola film “Wind.” Scenes involving up to four 12-meter yachts and chase craft are being shot off Fremantle, in southwestern Australia, in waters used for the 1987 America’s Cup yacht race. Stunt man Trevor Hellier, 36, and stunt coordinator Christopher Anderson, 34, were hospitalized after being thrown overboard from a chase boat. The accident occurred when two yachts practicing maneuvers collided with a stationary chase boat.
