James Bond stuntman and SAS hero is killed in an abseil race after plunging 300ft from a helicopter in China

A James Bond stuntman and former SAS hero has been killed after falling 300 feet from a helicopter in an abseil race. Steve Truglia, from East London, died on Thursday after the abseil stunt in Chongqing, southwest China, went wrong. Friends said Mr Truglia and another stuntman were
meant to be abseiling from the helicopter at the same time. Hours before his death, he had raised concerns it might not be big enough to take their combined weight.
