Safety on the set As the stunts that fill the cinema seats get better, so do the dangers of filming them. Yet 2009 recorded no major accidents, compared to the high-profile mishaps of years past. Egypt Today goes behind the scenes to find out what is going right in the world of stuntmen. Actors lead a dangerous life. In this summers controversial hit Ehky Ya Shahrzad (Tell Us, Scheherazade), Mona Zakis character was brutally beaten up and dragged by her hair across a room by her husband, played by Hassan El-Radad. Later in the year, the actress was hanging off the back of a car with actor Ahmed Helmy as they were dragged through a parking lot. She walked away from both scenes with barely a scratch.
