And so, when switching from horizontal to vertical format, a small handling error, the camera, with the lens, fell on her foot, on her big toe, and it's heavy. It's a heavy camera, which has a glass lens etc. So it fell on her foot, then on the ground, and so the camera, 'well the lens came off. There were 10 pieces on the ground, everything was broken and Céline was in a lot of pain in fact, because once again it's a heavy object that fell from a height I don't know, maybe 1.50 meters from the ground.
And so, obviously, it's not a nice story. We were at the very beginning of filming, we had maybe shot two or three videos and so I had to take her to the hospital immediately. We thought her toe was broken, because it swelled up right away, it was very blue, and I've already broken my toe and it did exactly the same thing. So we thought it was broken, I took her to the hospital, we did X-rays etc. And the luck we had was that it wasn't broken and we were able to go home. Well, she's still in a lot of pain, it's still a story that lasted a long time, but it wasn't broken. The lens, it was indeed exploded, broken on the ground.
And I'm going to tell you now what, what is poland whatsapp number data the link in fact between the story that I just told you and optimism, being positive, because I think I handled this situation well.
when the camera fell, I supported her immediately, obviously, she's my wife. When she's in pain, it's like I'm in pain too, so I supported her immediately. But there was, of course... I have to be honest... a part of my brain, behind me, there was an emotional part, there was my chimpanzee who was screaming: "Oh my, the camera. It's a super expensive object. But what's going to happen? How are we going to do it for the next shoots? We're in a hurry. Ah, it's a disaster."
So I had this part, in the back of my brain, my chimpanzee who was screaming all these things. But I managed, of course, to support Céline, to breathe well and to focus on her. In fact, my interest, my only concern, was her condition and I really wanted her to be well. So, for that, I needed to have a positive mindset. So I reassured her, I said: "But no, it's going to be okay, don't worry". She was: "Ah, I broke the camera, it's a disaster"; I told her: "It's not serious. That's equipment", so really having a completely positive mindset and telling her: "You're in pain, but don't worry, we're going to take care of it. Everything will be fine", so reassuring her as much as possible. Positive mindset.
And so we went to the hospital, and when the doctor told us "it's not broken", they did an X-ray, they said "the bone is not broken, there's just a big... finally a big shock, so it's going to take a little time, but there won't be any problem", well we were very happy in the end and I focused on that. I was optimistic, I told him: "OK, you're in a lot of pain. OK, it's annoying, but it's not broken, so it's great, you have to be positive".
Then, when we were coming back, when we were in the car, Céline started talking to me about the camera. "You realize, it's a big investment, it's true that these devices are very, very expensive, especially if you want professional quality." But I said: "Listen, it doesn't matter. The camera itself, already, I don't think it's broken, there's only the lens, which is the least expensive part of the whole thing."
So I was also trying to see the positive, and that's important. It may seem trivial, but it allows you to have the right frame of mind and to be in a really good mood. If you start to reject everything that is negative and focus on the positive, well that feels good. So I told him: "It's not a big deal. Oh well. We'll buy a new lens. Of course it's expensive, but it's part of life. And I'd rather buy a new lens than have to... see you suffer or have a broken toe etc." So once again, the positive, the camera is intact. You can imagine, it's the most expensive camera, we'll buy a new lens. It's not a big deal.
