All the STUNT work I’ve done over 40 years of my career, they’ve all been great. But the one that really comes to my mind, as we are working in Spain in 1991. On a TV series called dark justice. I was double in the lead actor, and I had to drive a Norton 750 motorcycle underneath a tractor trailer, and the motorcycle I was driving was doing Top speed  of 45 miles an hour at that time the the tractor trailer cut me off in an intersection. And I had to slide the motorcycle underneath the tractor trailer we got it all three cameras and probably to this day that was one of the most exciting experiences I’ve ever had in this business.

Never give up on your dreams, Never stop believing.. All train at your craft…
