  1. Hi James ,

    Had a perforated disk or bulging disk as some Doctors say, that was in 1999.

    Had three weeks of intense physio and was able to heal the problem .

    I'm still going today but I'm weary of lifting and exerting any pressure on my lower back that is not in keeping with what we do,ie lifting heavy weights above my shoulder or too far out front of my body, over reaching to pick up or drop off heavy objects.

    Pilates (stretching with resistance ) got me back up and healthy again.

    I'm not a big fan of invasive surgery unless as a last resort.

    Anyhow just wanted to share my story, i know it's it might not apply to your situation but I wish you all the best for a speedy recovery.

    Cheers as always

  2. Just wanted to put the record straight,

    Jacques Jouffret operated the "Flightplan" shot with Jodi Fisher running down the stairs, I was credited with Steadicam on the film but only because I day played more than anyone else.

    I had rehearsed that particular shot but never got to do it .

    Jacques was the operator on the day.

    Just wanted to clear the air with that....

    Cheers as always and congratulations to Jacques on his award from the SOC on Saturday night for outstanding operating on "Into the Wild".

    It was a great night with so many fellow operators there
