During the filming of Vikingdom I received A torn Left Bicep Tendon , In the Scene I was Sword Fighting Dominique Purcell We were going very hard , He broke the Choreography and hit me in front knocking the wind out of Me , At the end of the scene I noticed My left Bicep was Torn and bunched up on My Arm , I was taken to the Hospital where I was diagnosed with a Torn Biceps Tendon , The Doctor made an appointment the next Day for a CT scan to properly access the damage .

The next day no one from the studio came to get Me , A friend who was also a lead Character threatened not to go to set until I was taken care of , So the next Day KRU Studios picked Me up at the Hotel and took Me to a Different Doctor , He diagnosed Me with a Ripped Bicep Tendon and put me in a sling , Telling Me to stay very still on bed for 10 Days and then return for a check up and possible surgery . When we left the Office I received a Phone call From Shireen Halim Producer for KRU and was told I was being flown out that Day in the evening  I told Her I was ordered to stay in active and I need to stay in My room and let it heal , it was very painful injury , She said No, I was driven to the hotel and to the Airport and put on a International Flight with My arm in a sling , It was very difficult to travel with one arm immobilized  and Painful

After repeated e-mails I was denied the Insurance company's name to file a injury claim , I have also missed many acting jobs as a result of being incapacitated by this injury . This is a International Hollywood Movie with Many big name stars , They could not have made the Movie with out insurance . 2 Other people were severely injured on the same set that day , A broken leg and broken back , These other people received insurance coverage . I have been denied .
