Hannah Montana Saves Ferris

No children were harmed in the making of this film. Barely.
During filming on Hannah Montana: The Movie Tuesday, wind blew a projection screen into a Ferris wheel full of passengers, resulting in minor injuries for a few extras and crew members.
No serious injuries were reported and neither emergency personnel nor law enforcement was dispatched to the scene. The kids who were on the ride at the time were examined as a precaution.
"When the wind caught it, all the cables were loose. It started [flying]," extra Brenda Blackford told Nashville station WKRN-TV. “I was watching to see which corner of it was gonna hit the Ferris wheel, because it was unavoidable."
Miley Cyrus and dad Billy Ray Cyrus were not on the Greenbrier, Tenn., set when the incident took place.
"During a break in the filming of Hannah Montana: The Movie, a minor accident occurred involving a piece of production equipment,” read the official statement from Disney. “Fortunately, there were only a few minor injuries. Medical personnel have treated the extras and crew involved. None of the cast was on the set. Filming has resumed."
Production kicked off in the Nashville area last week. At some point, at least 2,000 lucky extras will stand in as the audience during a blowout concert sequence featuring Cyrus and Hannah Montana godmother Dolly Parton.
