"Special effects technician Conway Wickliffe was killed on set during the filming of The Dark Knight. A jury at Woking Cornoner&amp;#039;s Court was told that the father of two was leaning out of a moving Nissan 4x4 when the vehicle failed to take a turning correctly and hit a tree. Wickliffe was pronounced dead on the filming site in Longcross, Surrey. His movie credits included Batman Begins and Casino Royale. He was in the backseat of the car, which was driving alongside a stunt vehicle when the incident occurred. Another technician, Bruce Monroe-Armstrong, failed to make a 90 degree turn at the end of the road after being fired off a ramp. Armstrong, who had conducted three test runs prior to the crash, claimed he held control of the vehicle and wasn&amp;#039;t distracted from the road. PC Stuart Cameron, who examined the accident site, claimed the Nissan was travelling too fast at an average speed of 34mph. &amp;quot;The police car launched a little bit ahead of the Nissan,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;It is speculation on my part but I think the Nissan was trying to keep pace and that is why it went as a bit faster than planned and when it tried to take the bend it couldn&amp;#039;t.&amp;quot; Wickliffe&amp;#039;s partner Dee Chase told the court that the extreme sports enthusiast loved his job and loved life.
