“[To be honest] all of the last episode of season 2 was so much fun to film,” Riggs wrote on Twitter. “Coolest part was dropping the lighter to just obliterate a horde of zombies.”
In season 2, Carl and parents Rick and Lori Grimes found refuge on a rural Georgian farm after escaping the city. After Rick was forced to kill former best friend and partner Shane, a herd of walkers — alerted by a gunshot fired off by Shane during his confrontation with Rick — swarmed the Greene farm.
Rick and Carl fled into a barn on the outskirts of the property, Rick leading the pack inside in an attempt to incinerate them all with a single blow. Above on the perch, Carl ignited a lighter and dropped it, setting the walkers and the barn ablaze.
The 18-year-old actor was recently at the center of speculation that one-eyed, sheriff hat-wearing Carl will be the next to die on The Walking Dead, now midway through its eighth season.
