Louis Koo Tin Lok was scarred all over from the action scenes in INFERNO 3D (TOH CHOOK SUN TIN 3D), but he still insisted on continuing until the finish despite "seeing red". The director praised him for his professionalism!

Koo Tin Lok, Sean Lau Ching Wan and Angelica Lee Sinjie worked together on INFERNO 3D. Because they had to handle a lot of action stunts, Goo Jai and Ching Wan swam and ran on their free time during the shoot to stay in shape. Goo Jai even described that as a challenge to push his physical limits.

He said, "In the film I truly had many stunts, diving, flying, fire, all were rescue action films. With a little less energy they would be very hard to handle. Luckily during the shoot I didn't have any heat stroke of faint from the heat. Actually we shot inside, the temperature reached 40 degrees (Celsius) like a oven. Ching Wan was even worse, he had to wear a thick firefighter clothing. We both were covered in sweat, it was just like a sauna bath."

However Director Oxide Pang Shun praised Goo Jai's courage on and off screen because during the shoot he injured his palm and his old leg wound. In one window busting scene he was even bleeding. He still insisted on toughing out the shoot to the finish, as he did not want to hinder progress. He was very professional. He also revealed that the film's selling point was the first Chinese fire disaster 3D production, he even wanted to bring out a message of sacrificing yourself for others. He believed that after the film release Ching Wan and Goo Jai will be everyone's heroes. Although in the film Ching Wan was not a firefighter, he made some very professional suggestions from the firefighter angle. He obviously was a very sincere actor who did all his homework. He felt that as a part of this film, the on and off screen workers all had a fire that was quite a motivation.
