A stuntman who worked on the Expendables 2 action movie is said to have died of heart attack in front of shocked revellers while hanging from a noose at a Halloween party.

Kassym Zhumaguzhin reportedly died of a heart attack while performing a trick at the TSB nightclub in Kazakhstan.

The 34-year-old was supposed to play the role of a mummy hanging from a rope, and was wearing a special vest designed to perform tricks.

He was seen dressed in a white suit and mask with a noose around his neck at the Halloween party.

The stuntman was hoisted into the air above the dance floor dressed in a mask and wearing a mummy costume at the TSB nightclub in Kazakhstan

Zhumaguzhin, who starred alongside Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jet Li and is also known in the industry as Kasim Jumagujin, was at an event in the city of Almaty in north-western Kazakhstan's Almaty region.

He was reportedly wearing a special stunt vest with safety belts and ropes, then was lifted up to the ceiling by the noose.

Zhumaguzhin could be seen hanging from the ceiling around ten feet (3 metres) above the dance floor while being filmed by partygoers.

The footage then showed the stuntman being freed from the noose and dragged away by one of his colleagues after losing consciousness.

Local media report that Zhumaguzhin was dragged into the street for fresh air while the nightclub staff called an ambulance.

Reportedly the paramedics arrived quickly and tried to resuscitate Zhumaguzhyn, but could not saved him and pronounced him dead.

According to spokeswoman Evgeniya Lee the stunt lasted about 15 minutes.

She said: 'Zhumaguzhyn was wearing special equipment used for such stunts.

'He was under constant observation from his colleagues. During the stunt he showed that he was okay.
