But I never thought he would die.Īccording to the Telegraph, Gerald will not be moved from the Glen Africa Country Lodge following the incident. Carlos Carvalho, an award-winning filmmaker, has died after a fatal accident involving a giraffe while on location in South Africa. It came out of nowhere and Carlos didn't even see it coming. Then while Carlos was looking through the camera eyepiece Gerald swung his neck and hit him against his head. He was knocked out and taken to Milpark Hospital, where he died. Carvalho, began taking some close-up shots of the giraffe, when the animal became agitated and hit Carvalho in the head. The filmmaker was working with Drikus Van Der Merwe and others at the lodge when the giraffe, Gerald, began "chasing the boom swinger who joined the unit." At the time, no one seemed alarmed because the giraffe just seemed curious. Carlos Carvalho was filming at Glen Africa Country Lodge in the North West Province of South Africa on Wednesday evening.
