 During one of top mast shots, the cameramen Jerzy Lipman (qv) was  tied to the mast and hold a camera. Although the wind was not  strong, the mast swung and the camera was heavy, so it was very  difficult to take a good shot. All the time the director  Roman Polanski (qv) was very excited about the shot and kept  asking how it was going. Lipman got very angry and said "Fuck! It is  fucking beautiful!" and... dropped the camera to the water. He had  forgotten to attach it with the safety cable. The Arriflex camera  couldnt be found by the divers and still lies somewhere in the  lake.
