A scene went awry when a planned sequence of explosions went off simultaneously instead. Yu Hao Ming was more seriously burned with 3rd degree burns on 35 percent of his body affected. After emergency treatment in a Shanghai hospital, Selina was flown to Taiwan in a chartered medical airplane for skin graft surgery to her hands, feet and back.
