Australian band makes tribute to stuntman killing in filming

(BBC)---Johann Ofner was accidentally killed in Brisbane in January by what the band said was a gun loaded with blanks.
Bliss n Eso has unveiled a new clip for the song, Friend Like You, replacing the original gangster-style theme with tributes from Mr Ofner's friends.
The death of the stuntman, 28, remains under investigation by a coroner.
  • How did a music video end in tragedy?
During the four-minute video, Mr Ofner's friends speak about what they will miss most about him.
"I would do anything to have him back," says one friend.
It ends with Mr Ofner's six-year-old daughter Kyarna looking into the camera and saying "I love you daddy".
Bliss n Eso said a recent fundraising show raised more than A$40,000 (£25,000; $30,000) for Kyarna.
"It was incredibly special to share the night with Johann's friends and family, it will have an important place in our hearts and minds forever," the band wrote on YouTube.
