A stunt performer or stuntman or daredevil is someone who performs dangerous stunts, often as a career. These stunts are sometimes rigged so that they look dangerous while still having safety mechanisms, but often they are as dangerous as they appear to be. There is an inherent risk in the performance of all stunt work in film, television and stage work. Daredevil performers are distinct from stunt performers and stunt doubles, as they perform their stunts purely for the sake of the stunt itself, often before an audience for their entertainment and personal monetary gain for the event, while a stunt performer, or stunt double typically performs stunts intended for use in a motion pictures or dramatized television (although one person could certainly be both, as was the case with Harry Houdini, Jackie Chan, Tony Jaa and others). Stunt performers and stunt doubles are generally skilled at performing physical action in character for film and television. Famous stunt performers

Q. In the town of Flagstaff, Arizona, there was a group of thrill seeking friends that go to major extremes to complete various stunts and activities. The group consisted of Mark the bike performer, Kyle the skydiver, Beth the snowboarder, and Chase the planer. Once Chase planned stunts to do, one of the other three performers would carry out the stunt if their abilities allowed them to. It didn t matter what the challenge was they were always fulfilling what the crowd yearned for. Mainly they just did shows for hire, but sometimes they just did it because they could, and if they couldn t well they just tried harder.I cant figure out what will happen next please help!! Please only serious answers! Asked by a ka - Thu Sep 18 18:12:57 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. And then one day... a mysterious stranger came into town and gave them their ultimate challenge. He kidnapped them all and dropped them into the lions cage at the zoo. He hung a ladder above them but it was too high from their reach. This was their ultimate challenge. How would they meet it.
