but that's not quite accurate. Here is the correct story, from Wikipedia: "Morrow, along with two young children, My-Ca Dinh Le (aged 7) and Renee Shin-Yi Chen (aged 6), died on the set of 'Twilight Zone: The Movie' (1982). At the time of his death, Morrow was playing the role of Bill Connor, a bigot who was taken back in time and placed in various situations where he would be a persecuted victim: a Jewish Holocaust victim, a black man about to be lynched by the Ku Klux Klan, and a Vietnamese man about to be killed by United States soldiers.Morrow, My-Ca Dinh Le, and Renee Shin-Yi Chen were shooting a scene for the Vietnam sequence; they were running from a pursuing helicopter. The helicopter was flying at a low level when pyrotechnic explosions caused the helicopter to lose control and crash on top of the three. Morrow and Le were both decapitated by the blades; Chen was also fatally injured. The helicopter crew received minor injuries."The deaths of the two children resulted in reformation of child labor laws in California.Vic Morrow, by the way, was Jennifer Jason Leigh's father.
