AMC’s The Walking Dead has halted season 8 production after stuntman John Bernecker was seriously injured. Bernecker was on the Alanta set on Wednesday according to Variety. Bernecker fell more than 20 feet onto a concrete floor sustaining severe head injuries and was rushed to the local hospital where he was in intensive care and eventually put on a ventilator. Bernecker had an impressive list of stunt credits including recent work on Black Panther, Logan, and Get Out to name a few. The Walking Dead cast and crew have been known to be a close knit group and John Becknecker was apart of that family as proof by the tweet sent out July 13th from Lauren Cohen:
