There are no retired stunt people without lifelong injuries. These people sacrifice their bodies to make stars look good and do it for not a lot of pay and for very little recognition. I was always in awe of the list of stunt people in James Bond movies. Thanks for making action movies great!

@evenkeel6131 2 года назад

@@geza1014 It's been a handful years since I've been on a movie set (I moved to television) but the last one I was on the stunt men got $950/day as their daily rate plus $200 and up per stunt depending on what it was. If I remember correctly, simple falls were $200, stair falls were $350 and falls over a certain height (I can't remember the increments) were $450 and up depending on how high. Per take. If the simple fall took three takes to get, that was $600 on top of their daily rate of $950. That's damned good pay. Not suggesting for a second that it isn't earned.

I’m a massage therapist and I massage some of the biggest stud performers in New York City. I massage the girl who is the double in the matrix for Trinity I am massage one of the guys who is the double for Bruce Willis in his last action movie… And let me tell you those are some severely underpaid underappreciated people. I have this one guy who came to see me one day he was in that harness that Yanks you back when there’s a big explosion scene to make it mimic like you’re flying away from the explosion… Yeah that rig nearly broke his hips his right leg and his back I was working on him for three days straight trying to get him out of pain. He also had a very severe injury on his lower left leg-I believe from an explosion on a movie set. There are the real heroes that we should be touting when we watch the stupid Marvel movies 🤘🏿

7:15 I understand they are just doing this to make the movie dramatic but this breaks the laws of physics. The force of a bullet impact physically cannot be greater than the recoil on the shooter, infact it will be less due to drag, so the shooter should also be pulled back on a wire.

@bphoxx 2 года назад

It is for movies so it need to be more dramatic than reality. Same with grenade explosion. In the movies the grenade usually make a big fireball just for the sake of dramatization.

It depends on the scene nowadays they have stunt people but a lot of that is done with computer generated imagery because it avoids a lot of liability insurance requirements when you with stunt performers because if they get injured the recovery periods are extremely lengthy and these people have to have income while they're laid up on the hospital recuperating

Connected with Storror Parkour on a project several years ago, and our production team was blown away not only by their stunts but also by the composition of their cinemagraphy. Everyone should keep in mind that for many of these stunts, there's another person performing the same stunt along with the stunt actor but while also holding a camera.

@Wolfinger1935 2 года назад

125 foot high fall is plenty high and requires a skilled performer to do safely. Kudos to Damien Walters. However, there have been much higher free falls into airbags. A.J. Bakunus did 220+ feet from a Helicopter in the movie Hooper. Dar Robinson has done 320+ feet. (not for a movie... but still) He also did over a thousand feet from the CN Tower in Toronto... with a parachute though. And once on a descender rig. I have a couple of buddies in the biz who have done over 200 feet free falls into airbags. I have done 60 feet... and that was high enough!! Anything over that is crazy high. Nowadays for most high falls they will use descender rigs or decelerators. Very often these don't look realistic though. There is something about an untethered free fall into an airbag that is hard to duplicate. I believe Sean Connery did a 90 foot fall into a Box Rig on The Man Who Would Be King. Stunt performers do some amazing things.

When I was at high school , i was playing Trazan from a 🌳 tree branch from a slide during break which must at 10 feet height. The branch which we were using had worn out, it was my bad day the branch broke I fell into gutter passage below land me on my buttock the impact was so hard my friend had to pull me out of gutter remove all the branch covered on me , I had lie straight for some minutes till break bell 🔔 rang. I couldn't walk properly my friends carried me on their shoulder till the class room couldn't tell at home would even get more beating 🙃 for nothing . Afterwards couldn't take part in any sports event for longer distance after certain time the muscles used to cramped up or get jammed........ I had always imagination for stunts afterwards I used to watch RU-vid and other videos thanks to Jackie Chan, Tony jaa, Damien Walter's, Cyril Raphelie, David Belle.
