stunt performers
Professional risk takers
Stunt performers are professionals who execute dangerous or physically demanding actions in film, television, and live entertainment—falls, fights, car crashes, fire burns.
They often double for actors in scenes too risky for the stars themselves.
The stunt performers rehearsed the rooftop chase for three days before filming.
