Brandon Bruce Lee (son of the great Bruce Lee) was an actor, fight choreographer, and martial artist. While filming the dark fantasy film 'The Crow' Lee was fatally wounded on the set by a prop gun on March 31st, 1993. Unbeknownst to cast and crew, the lead tip of a dummy bullet had been lodged into the barrel after its use in a prior scene. During the filming of a final scene, the prop gun was loaded with a 'blank' round and was fired. The bullet struck Lee in the head and was rushed to a hospital in Wilmington North Carolina where he was later pronounced dead.
