“There was an accident involving a truck and a car on the second unit set of ‘The Hangover Part II’ near Bangkok, Thailand, at approximately 3:00 a.m. on Friday, December 17, 2010 (Bangkok time),” Warners said. “A stuntman was injured during the filming of this sequence. The truck and car were both driven by stunt drivers. An ambulance immediately took the injured stuntman to the local hospital, and he has since been transported to a hospital in Bangkok where advanced care is being provided. We are awaiting further details concerning his condition.”

McLean is currently in a Thai hospital and has now been placed into a medically induced coma. This is to help speed up his recovery.

McLean has performed stunts in such films as THE MATRIX and STAR WARS: EPISODE II- ATTACK OF THE CLONES.
