Nope. Given this was not been done to intentional cause harm (despite what the peanut gallery migt say) and certainly not for personal gain, it wouldn't apply. Combine this with the type of job which involves such risks, and there is no case.
Frankly, I'm disappointed in the responses of the general community (as in beyond this forum) to this incident. It only reinforces my view that people force upon the entertainment industry a very lopsided hypocritical moral standard.
