He didn't pull the trigger, but he pulled the hammer and let it fall, which is what the trigger does.

I am curious why that was never covered in a gun safety briefing. Had Baldwin never used a revolver before in a movie?

George Clooney made this statement on the WTF with March Maron podcast:

"Every single time I'm handed a gun on the set, every time they hand me a gun I look at it, I open it," he told Maron on the November 15 episode. "I show it to the person I'm pointing it to, I show it to the crew. Every single take, you hand it back to the armorer when you're done."

"You do it again and part of it is because of what happened to Brandon, everyone does it," he continued, referring to his friend Brandon Lee, who died of an accidental shooting while making the 1993 movie "The Crow." "Everybody knows and maybe Alec did that, hopefully, he did do that."
