In the movies and on TV the explosion is visually very exciting, but its even more exciting when a body is seen flyinhg through the air because of that explosion. How was it done? Over time the industry has adopted a number of ways to get stunt performers flying through the air...here is a look at the top 3.

Here, we have a look at the art of high falling. A most magnificent discipline that looks fabulous on screen, but takes a great deal of work to accomplish and maintain at a high level.

Lets explore some of those great memories I have of classic falls and see how technology has pushed the envelope.

Turning a car over isn't just hope for the best and give it the beans you know.

There is a science and an engineering masterclass about getting a car off its four wheels. Cars are designed for safety, stuntmen are the scientists who push the vehicles to their limits.

Let me tell you more

An odd title but an essential part of any stunt performers repertoire. I have some experience of this as I'm still dealing with an injury sustained in a stair fall 2yrs ago, but this got me thinking about what is expected of a performer and how a performer gets to practice a fall down a flight of stairs whilst going about their everyday duties.

Enjoy

Back in May this year I hosted a Q & A with PAUL WESTON after a screening of LICENCE TO KILL at the Prince Charles Cinema in London.
Great Bond film, which has many fans. It was a great thrill to have Paul there and the audience weren't disapointed as you'll now hear.

Without question, Kimberly is one of the finest stunt professionals in the business.
Her ability to perform and create amazing action on the big and small screen is indeed a gift.

But it wasn't always a bed of roses you know. Kimberly tells me about how she started and we look at some of the action she's performed, finding out more about them and how they were done.

A great chat and I hope you enjoy it.

Highlander: 
is as good as a film gets in my opinion. Good cast, well directed and a score to die for. But its action scenes rule supreme. PETER DIAMOND is stunt coordinator in the UK and VIC MAGNOTTA is the coordinator in the US. We try to explore a bit more about this movie by talking to another big name that was part of the shoot. 2nd Unit Director ANDY ARMSTRONG who explains how he got the job and what it meant to him.

Highlander 2 The Quickening:
is a sequel that could have done without being made. The success of the first film begged for a follow up but the script didn't allow for a great deal of fluidity when it came to story. Action is coordinated by ERNIE ORSATTI who brings in stuntmen like TOMMY HUFF to double Lambert and ROCKY TAYLOR to double Connery. We also chat to villain Michael Ironside about his role in the stunts on the picture.

A big budget belter from Michael Bay.

Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage fight Ed Harris and some very nasty gas that could kill everyone in the 'Bay Area' in THE ROCK

Stunt Coordinator KENNY BATES provides first class action and plenty of doubling opportunities for over 50 stunt professionals.

We also have a contribution from stuntman CARL CIAFARLIO who worked on the picture back in 95.

This episode does contain two adult swear words....just so you know right?
