Health And Safety

An oscar winning stunt coordinator's failure to check the safety of a stunt resulted in the death of a cameraman during the making of The Dark Knight. Conway Wickliffe died when the vehicle he was filming from struck a tree. The car failed to negotiate a bend while going 20mph. Conway was declared dead at the scene. He was also not strapped into the car and was using a handheld camera. This is the result of health and safety not being rigorously assessed.
Health and safety for the dark knight was not effective because if it was assessed more, then the crew would of been able to identify that the car crash would be a risk if precautions were not made then Conway may still be alive. Health And Safety is an obligation because it allows production companies to make sure that there are minimal risks while doing highly dangerous scenes or stunts..

The confidentiality agreement was not effective as he revealed outcomes that spoiled the show for all who watched the leaked footage. It was believed that he was on the plane with his mother however just because she is family that doesn't mean you can reveal private information as you signed an agreement that you should stick to. However that being said the cameraman also plays a part in this as he invaded Nick Viall's privacy by recording him and from what it appears to be Nick is unaware that he is being recorded. In this instance the agreement does not serve its purpose as information about the finale of the show that was supposed to be kept private was leaked due to the clumsiness of the actor.

Heil im home was a british sitcom in the 1990s and aired for only one episode before it was banned from tv because of its controversial content. it depicts hitler and his wife eva living like a typical american sitcom family. it is a parody of american sitcoms but this was bad as well as jewish neighbours that where portrayed as annoying characters. at the time and even now this would be considered very controversial and its not surprising that after one episode it was canceled.
