It's true. When I lived in Kentucky, my neighbor had a ferret. He was dangerous and spent time at the local bar. Nothing like a mean drunk ferret. :olduhh:

Actors and their stunt doubles
1660918792300.png


Coincidentally, I just read a short article about all the bones that Jackie Chan has broken over the years due to the fact that he does all his own stunts. It's a frightening list. Among other things he once broke his ankle and after being told he needed to stay completely off it for at least a week, he just painted the cast to look like a sock and then went right back and finished the movie.

He once jumped off the top of a 100 ft building to catch a rope hanging from a passing helicopter. He missed and fell to the ground. NO safety net or bounce pad. Broke numerous bones including a rib that punctured a lung. Guy is amazing.

One of the reasons why I respect Jackie over many other artists. He's a living legend.

Well, I sent this to my son and he had just happened to see a video recently that showed clearly that not only does Chan use stunt double but he as stated as much on many occasions. He has ALSO said, on late night talk shows, that he does all his own stunts. So there are two Chans ... the honest one and the one that promotes his career.

None of that detracts from the fact that he DOES do most of his own stunts and he HAS been severely injured multiple times.

A good one but unfortunately not true. If this weren't a science website who would care? Well maybe nobody cares anyways...

My sweetie and I love to put toasted pine nuts on our salads. When we are out of nuts are the salads as good? I suppose that would be a matter of a pinyon.
