AICWA criticises the "gross negligence"

According to the AICWA, "gross negligence" may have contributed to this occurrence. The Association states that when filming sequences involving the sea or water bodies, it is essential to have robust safety measures in place, including a trained team, rescue workers, and emergency preparedness.

The Association said that the actor's life may have been spared if appropriate safety procedures had been followed. They have described this as a systemic breakdown and, "prima facie," an act of criminal negligence rather than just an accident.
