This is a normal post it was a widely shared story in Aus at the time that a stuntman was killed in the first mad max flick but Miller left the death scene in out of respect for the stuntman
took me all of 10 seconds just now to find out it was bullshit (imgur.com/gallery/wQ5niIx)
there was a bit of that about before the internet, like the urban myth we all fervently held that Sixto Rodriguez was blind. Anyway, guests are starting to arrive and me typing is looking increasingly antisocial. good new years to you and yours. may your 2021 be an endless orgasmic wonderland of eastern promise
