- Hollywood has many tricks to make impossible and dangerous stunts into a reality. Movies like "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," "Baby Driver," and "Elf" used a Texas switch to allow an actor and their stunt double to switch places on screen without having to cut. "Avengers: Endgame" and "Men in Black: International" used wire rigs known as ratchet pulls to make it seem like characters were being hit by a serious blow. Meanwhile, a tuning fork can make characters like Maleficent and Captain Marvel look like they're flying, and a tarp known as a magic carpet gave characters in "Underworld" superspeed.

Stunt doubles should be able to get oscars
They actually used to
@@alexanderhuckbody3630 Really?
@@theswimmer4185 yup
@@theswimmer4185 but till now.. Only 3
Then they'd end up doing more wild stunts to win and end up hurting themselves too much.
The work that Stunt doubles do, is super underrated! And kudos to Actors that do it themselves, like Cruise, Chan, and others but Real props are to the stunt doubles! They really don’t get enough credit
I don't understand why there stunt doubles exist for to be honest with you. I mean the real actors get paid like 5-50 millions of US dollars fo couple of months - for that price we can expect them to perform the trick by themselves...
Man, those firefighters, rescuers actually save people and risk their life everyday for what a 60k per year - and they don't complain...
@@ShadKS18XL In case you are not trolling, the thing is, the stunts are dangerous and to perform them safely you need a lot of skill, training and experience. While I guess it's possible to train the actor to do it, it would take a lot of time to do so, not to mention there is still a risk of the actor getting hurt, which would at BEST delay the movie. So why not let the guys and gals who made it their carrier to do these stunts do them?
A, they are going to already have the skills and training the actor would need to get (I mean it takes years of training for example to be at the level of martial arts some of the movies are showing, that's not something you can learn in a few months)
B, they will have much more experience at it than the actor, and so there is much less chance of them actually hurting themselves
C, IF they do end up being hurt, then it's of course a bad thing, but they are aware of the risk, they do the stunts, knowing them might get hurt. And, form the bigger perspective, it's better for the stunt double to get injured, than the actor. You can always juggle the schedule, shoot scenes with actors which don't require stund doubles, let the double heal, and then you can finish the stunt shots. Or you know, use a different stunt double. You can't easily replace the actor.
@@D3emonic very well said.
@@ShadKS18XL bro acting is different from firefighters. Acting for entertainment and firefighters is for real world. There's a difference
@@ShadKS18XL Dude, you don't know how dangerous being a stuntman is. especially there's cases of some stuntman getting badly injured, like that one stuntman in Harry Potter. which is now in a wheelchair due to his body getting crippled and he cannot able to walk anymore. and some stuntman getting killed during the shootings. so it's understandable why some actors needed a stuntman.
"We could CGI the fire, but that is hella expensive. So we just set real people on fire instead - much cheaper!"
Yes
@Rata Gurney yep, that is a reasonable excuse to put a living human on fire...
@@ShadKS18XL seriously tho, after they slather your body with those fireproof gel stuff,
it gets really really cold and you really wanna be set on fire.
Harsh, but so true.
Well for Project Power they had to CG fire anyway but doing it for real on set takes a lot of work out for the VFX artists like adding in fake lighting, smoke, maybe some heat distortion that would be visible near a fire and all that practical stuff is used as reference as well so it’s usually better to do things practically anyway
Stunt doubles really should get oscars for their performances
It's one of those things where I both agree, and disagree with you about it.
I sort of agree because stunt people rarely get recognition in the entertainment industry as a whole. It has become better over time though I feel, because videos like this one, and loads of others, puts a spotlight on stunt people.
And I sort of disagree because what I envision might start to happen is that movie makers, and the stunt people them selves, might start doing crazier and crazier stunts to try and win that Stunt Oscars, and eventually someone is going to die due to it. I mean the job is dangerous enough as it is, with people trying to out do each others stunts... but if you add in an extra incentive to win an Oscar from it, that aspect of out doing each other might ramp up even more.
It's a double edged sword really.
@@Calistarius79 true we should give them recognition and make sure that we don't compare them to other stunt people
You've never heard of the Taurus World Stunt Awards?
Totally!
To be fair though, stuntman aren’t actors. They’re actually doing the thing are portraying
I really like the super speed one looks fun but a little bit scary lol
@Rata Gurney I love watching Gui talk about his stunts
I would definitely trip and eat it.
@@irjake it looks like if you tripped you'd end up just floating forward with your feet sliding across the ground since you cannot fall to the ground. if you use the wire rig.
I kinda want to try it, but I know I'd somehow end up losing a leg or something.
@@arthurpendragon8192 I was thinking about the carpet, not the wire. Wouldn't you be dragged along the rough road on a thin mat get thrashed? Maybe I don't understand how it works.
What’s crazy is that stunt performers use wires to run at superhuman speeds like 24mph. Usain Bolt runs at over 27mph.
For 10 seconds on special running tracks with special sprinting shoes
@@pallavrajpatra7227 can you?
@@Marijuana-Johnson The reason I can't get with women is I can't come up with off the cuff three worded quip to something like this to keep it rolling.
Just hire usain bolt simple!
@@Marijuana-Johnson If he dedicated his entire life on sprinting like bolt did then he definately could. And stop saying "cAn y0U?" when someone "criticizes" a professional, it sounds super dumb
Would love to have a 30 minute interview with a stunt person looking back over their favourite moments from their career. Would be fascinating!
If you haven't seen it already, you should check out the "Stuntmen React" series from Corridor Crew, here on TH-cam.
Corridor Crew, as noted, do a bunch of good vids. Another one is Scott Adkins' series, The Art of Action, where he does long form interviews with other martial artists and stunt people about their work.
That ^ and also The Art of Action where Scott Adkins interviews stunt men and other famous martial artist from awesome movies
The best one is definitely stunt woman reacts. She annotates the scenes and itś a really high production video, I think by Vanity Fair. I believe they did a marshal arts guy too but can remember his as well.
Yeah, I remember when I could see and breathe through my nose, those were the good old days....wheeze, gasp, cough, snort, wheezle. They ran out of extinguisher by the time they got to me so I burned for another 25 seconds. In hospital for 20 months and now I breath through this pipe that ends up near my butt and I got gas "Pharttttttt" Oh that was a ripe one." Nurse, I said I am allergic to milk as it gives me gas. Dammit!
Stunt doubles are the criminally under-rated heroes of the movie industry. They put their bodies through so much, spend significant time being filmed and "on-screen" and yet most people don't even know their name. The movie industry should do way more to make sure they get the "props" they deserve.
The best stunt performances from last year were in TENET where the actor and their stunt performers performed all their actions both forwards and backwards for each individual take dozens of times...!
Jdw would have a better career as a stunt double
@@jothishprabu8 Snide point noted. So I will not bother watching his movies again - since you feel he is not a good actor...Damn!
that was pretty wild
@@Yman83464z it was completely false and unnecessary. He's solid. Ballers is worth watching.
@@jothishprabu8 he's perfectly fine in TENET. It's an absurdly silly script that no-one could have possibly done anything remotely good with
the academy should include a new category for these guys! they do half of the actor's work!
More like 70%
if they wanted to be famous then they would’ve chose acting
Academy doesn’t even really honor action films so doubt they’d go into stunt doubles
@@lonewolfking4274 you must be very ignorant to think that a stunt double does 70% of an actor's work
Because they can't wait to spend more money on people who are already underpaid and willing to cooperate
The Hargrave family's contribution to Hollywood is actually massive.
@Neil Deep if your looking for a story yes it's not that good and have seen it a million times...but in terms of how to direct and choreograph action and flow of the camera...then I must say it's pretty good.
@Neil Deep did you enjoy Avengers Endgame or Infinity War? Cause Sam was a second unit director on those? Also stunt coordinators and fight coordinators both Daniel and Sam. How about John Wick? Suicide Squad? Wolverine? Any of those movies? The Hargrave brothers not only doubled in those but they doubled main characters like Keanu, Hugh Jackman. Endgame highest grossing film in the first release (not rereleased like Avator had to do). All the respect for these two
Probably the best video on explaining movie shots I have watched. Straight to the point, no time wasted, informative yet simple visuals to understand. Thank you !
“Is Scott here?”
**scott jumps out window**
“Uh no he just left”
@Vincent Meyer oh did u? i missed that
A classic moment from a classic movie.
whats the movie called
@@nooneleftbehide scott pilgrim vs the world
Iconic
Woah that Texas switch was awsome
It's so obvious when they point it out, but I never notice it in the movies.
I will definitely forget about acting if there is fire all over me, no matter how many layers of fire protecting clothes i put on.
It would certainly be a realistic performance
Good think you aren't acting then
Then acting isn't meant for you.
@@pepega3344 ?
@@leoanthonybiaco1940 ???
The tuning fork is super interesting. Even with the wires I reckon it still takes a massive amount of athleticism on the actor’s behalf. Would love to see Monique Ganderton on a “How Real Is It” episode.
The core strength is unbelievable
Thank you for confirming that was Daniel Hargrave in the harness in the bts video. So many fans are convinced it's Chris Evans. Daniel you rock
Yes exactly there was that whole thing about how Chris has this perfect hard to copy running form and so he had to run.
This has literally just given me the answer to a dolly shot I need for a short film project. Thank you so much.
This is incredible. Idk how much stunt doubles get paid, but I think they should be paid more
"We could CG the fire but it's easier to set someone alight for real"
Spiderman Far From Home: CG's flowers in a field
Literally not the same thing
If you learn CGI, you'll know how far the difference between thousands of "static" flowers vs fire that "dance in the air"
And the Oscar Awards never have an award category for Stunts
Director : You are next
Jacky Chan : I wont be needing all that
"Jacky"
The fact that stunt doubles do the risky job and don't even get a recognition 🤷
I’m sure they wouldn’t want it
@@burekking1960 Im sure they would want the pay though
How long is the stuntmen on screen vs the actual actors?
The stuntmen do far more work for less pay and less recognition
dinoblacklane of course they’d want the pay but the recognition is actually a benefit to em. They have privacy and aren’t bothered by paparazzi
They do get the recognition
I've worked on set
Everyone in the industry knows who they are and what they do and who is good at their job and who is not
beyond that... they are in the credits (they are credited with the performance)
in saying that, Part of being a stunt person or Choreographer is that you understand that YOUR ROLE IS TO MIMIC THE TALENT
"THE TALENT" in the industry is a term that is used to say "The Actors or Actresses" Your role is to be seen without been seen
you are there for insurance reasons so the talent doesn't potentially hurt themselves and thereby cost the Exec Producers more money in the future
but they certainly do get the recognition and they certainly do get paid well.
Let's not forget the Wire rigs can give you a concussion like Football because the brain is like Jell-O in that skull. And you'd be amazed how bouncy glass is after you wake up.
Dead man rigs especially. No.matter how good an athlete is, the human body just isn't made to stop that suddenly. My inner voice kept going "OW! " every time I saw a poor stunt guy get slammed to a stop like hitting a wall. It's actually worse seeing the behind the scenes, since we recognize when we're watching the film that it's an effect, and camera movement and other action cushion the blow, visually.
@@markdoldon8852 The videos of Jackie Chan and his stunt crew by "Every Frame a Painting" and "Accented Cinema" really hammer it home too how much stunts "back in the day" were literally the stuntpeople getting injured outright. There's a shot where a crewmember has to fall out of a double-decker bus onto the pavement below, and their solution for it was to...literally just fall out of the bus onto the ground below, and hope for the best
@@BirdmanDeuce26 Don't forget the scene where a man was dragged underneath a stagecoach after being run over by horses. Sorry for forgetting the movie's name.
This was incredibly fascinating. I’d love to learn more about underwater stunts and how those are performed.
Huge respect for stunt doubles
Fun fact..a ratchet pull was used in the opening scene of Jaws, but it was manual. A man on each side pulled back and forth to make it look like she was being attacked by a shark.
At one point, the 2 guys accidentally pulled at the same time, breaking the actresses ribs, resulting in a very real scream which was kept in the movie.
😮
was the actress ok?
That's horrifying
Leaving the "accidental method acting" in seems to be a movie tradition. The first Ben Hur film (b&w and silent) had an accident during the shooting of the race seen: a chariot crashing into a stone wall, one unholy mess of wood, panicky horses and wounded people.
Looked amazing in the finished movie.
And of course Viggo Mortensen breaking a couple of toes on Two Towers ...
I suspect that actors would feel more insulted if the shot was _not_ kept in: "hey, that scene looked perfect and also I broke my foot/ribs/bones for that, WTH?"
Great video! So much respect for the Stunt Actors, they make it look so easy but the skill & guts involved is huge!
Me: Whoa look at that everybody's on fire, that looks very realistic.
Stuntman: _screaming_
I knew a lot of these techniques in general but it was great seeing them illustrated with particular films.
People really don’t understand how hard it is to animate fire. Stunt people need their own award shows as thank you for all their hard and dangerous work.
Seriously every single one of them are the true backbone of all your favorite scenes. If you ever recognize one at a coffee shop, buy them their drink and say thanks!
A lot of these make me appreciate the stunt doubles even more.
Corridor Crew’s: Stuntmen React is such a good awakening for the appreciation of stunt-people
Do Jackie chan stunt tricks. Oh yeah I forgot he just dose it for real. Boss level right there!
Just another video reminding me how good GoT use to be...
Shup up bro pls
Trash seasons of GoT.
It had potential to be one of the greats! The first 5 or 6 seasons were incredible!
Nice trolling
No one ever complained that GoT's CGI is bad. Heck even the Night King's battle in the dark is pretty dope. The story's what's turned sour
I love watching these videos. I didn't know a lot ... it was very interesting how filmmakers do such cool tricks)))
They're creative like a NASA engineer.
Stunt doubles are totally underrated. Wow
A massive respect to the these legends to bring us all of this!!! ❤️
Respect for all the stunt talent. the unsung heroes 👏🏻
these people are not paid enough. Underrated for sure
this video just shows you that without stunt performers, most movies just wouldn't even be possible.
*No wonder most people won’t be like action heroes....*
They’re all using tricks.
So true. Some (not all) of the super-buff body transformation some actors go thru are a bit of a trick as well. Some are doing it with a little chemical assistance if you know what I mean ☺️
Gosh, if only these people tried as hard to write actually believable scripts and dialogue, these movies would be amazing.
That's the point of a movie, it's not supposed to be real! If you don't like it, go watch a documentary but don't ruin it for the rest of us!
Props to these stunt doubles. Wow the fire stunt is really insane
Stahelski and Hargrave are truly gifted.
BIG SALUTE FOR THE FIRE STUNTMEN
I love episodes like this which makes us learn more about the filmmaking process! :D
These guys deserve a lot of credit.
This is why stunt people have my highest respect out of the entire crew.
Corridor crew bought the art of cinema and stunts with there stunt man reacts series and now everything has changed.
It's funny, I watch the Corridor Digital where they lit Clint on fire. He said because of the gel he was actually COLD most of the time!
Ugh... this should have been longer. I love these kind of videos. I could watch this all day
Nice to see one of these "behind the scenes" videos where I learned a bunch of stuff I actually didn't already know. Thanks!
That fire one is pretty scary
I love the note at 8:40 , "and it works for villains as well". Sorry dude, you're a villain in this movie so you HAVE to actually go through this real window
WOW! the cinematic work is so wonderful and magnificent with the making of such beautiful and complex stunts
these guys all deserve their oscars
that game of thrones scene is lit
Love this. More of these please. More of anything like this content please
I also think stunt double work needs to be more recognized
Thank you stuntpeople - for hurting your bodies for our insatiable and endless entertainment.
Fun fact: the camera lockoff was already used in 1928 by charlie chaplins film "the lion cage"
Yeah. But, oh well, this video’s researcher simply jotted down the first movies that came to his/her mind.
Man That Running One Stunt is soo
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
This video was amazing and I found out about so much cool stuff! Thanks for making it you guys!
6:30 We found a way to make this less painful for you
stunt man: So i don't have to get hit by a car?
Director: No one said, that..?! Oh and while you here.. 9:59 10:44
Stunt man: Oh, Come on'! I have a family!
This is so cool. Special effects is 90% of action films
So dope. What’s there not to love about film making and special effects. Shout out to the stuntmen and stuntwomen out here risking their lives for enjoyment. 👏🏾👏🏾💪🏾💯
Absolutely fascinating!!
Would like to know about the under-water stunts and anti-gravity effects done in movies(with and without harness)
The real danger of firestunts is actually hypothermia. The Gel and bodysuits act as crazy good heat conducters sucking up all your bodyheat faster than you can produce it, being on fire for too long can cause hypothermia, sounds weird i know
So a guy dipped in the gel who is waiting around for his scene to be filmed can literally die of hypothermia.
I like that.
this video was actually superb. thank you.
That fire one is crazy.
After seeing this , I have just one question . Why is there still no oscar category for best stunt performance ?
an incentive to have riskier stunts will result in riskier stunts and sooner or later more people will die.
Jackie Chan to stunt double: Hold my jacket 💪😤 “UNKO!”
Wow... Amazing... Waiting for more like these, ❤️
And all this work just to impress us, GOOD WORK
they should make Oscar nominations for stuntmans
The funniest Texas Switch gag is in Scary Movie 3 when George gets thrown out the window. It happens twice and it's hilarious each time.
Stunt doubles are legends.
This is incredible!!
In the very early days of Hollywood, a stuntman getting killed doing a bit film was common. E.E. Canutt was responsible for many of the inventions that made stunt work safer. You've probably seen him many times but never knew it. That wasn't Clark Gable that drove the wagon out of burning Atlanta in "Gone with the Wind", it was Enos Edward (Yakima) Canutt.
Yak was the lead in several silent films but felt his voice was right for the talkies, so he switch to strictly stunt work. He later became a second unit director for action sequences, doubled John Wayne many times and did the bit in the chariot race in Ben Hur (1950s). He did win an Oscar for his work.
Interesting. I enjoy learning about the beginnings of professions we take for granted.
Stunt men have to go through all these rigorous training to do stunt correctly
Jackie Chan: Hello, am I invisible?
It's not that Jackie is an actor who does his own stunts, it's more like Jackie is a stunt man who is also a first class actor.
Stunt doubles should be able to get awards ❤️😃😃😃
The fire stunt definitely deserves number 1.
Really cool video, if you could put in the metric system (like km/h) values as well somewhere under that would be super cool
Ahh look for this in the future! I'll bring it up :P
Those anti fire suits are design to keep heat away, but that also means taking away your own body heat. By the time you’re ready to pull the stunt, you’re soo cold, you probably want to be lit on fire 😂
Don't they keep heat from outside away?
They're thermal isolators right? That means those suits are hot af doesn't it?
that doesn t work like that at all... why would your body heat leave??
So basically Daniel Hargrave is in every movie.
Stunt doubles will forever have my respect, they really are the magic in movie magic
After watching this video, I really felt sorry for the stuntmen!!! I hope they get paid enough.
10:31 O_o They actually make them burn for 15 seconds ...
no, they actually don't. my friend was killed by a tank on the movie set
Kane Hodder burned for over 40 seconds as Jason Voorhees in Part 7 of Friday the 13th during the shoot.
Need a video on how celebrities do their own stunts and how many takes they had to do! Cool guys like Tom Cruise, Akshay Kumar and others
The fire trick Is AAWEESOMEEEE
The last is insane
❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Am I the only one who wants to try this carpet superunning thing?
how do you do the space , parachute aviation stunts?
That fire performance was the best!
The Captain America sprint is wow
It surprises me how "floaty" even the most well-resourced and expertly executed wire pulls often look. 6:39 is a great example. Not only does it look floaty but the direction he's pushed looks wrong and the way he stops rotating in mid-air looks bizarre too. Even just watching the scene casually at full-speed, it looks jarring and uncanny, as if he tripped and fell upwards.
That said, I'm not trying to be overly critical, I just find it interesting. There are trillions of microscopic details that filmmakers labor away to get perfect, and which I'll never know enough about film to appreciate, so it makes me wonder why this particular quirk is left in. Is it intentional? Or is it just too expensive or dangerous to do repeated takes for stunts like this?
I want to run fast like that. Imagine running at 45mph.
No clickbait at all ! Awesome !
Best video i have watched in a long time!!!
Would love it if these videos also spoke about how hard CGI is and how much VFX artists suffer from OT work and capped salaries :)
There’s a channel on TH-cam that actually talks about VFX in some movies. Corridor crew I believe is their name. They do some interesting stuff.
@@whodahellru8124 LOL corridor crew aren't exactly what we do in the industry
@@aroidpapa oh …. 🤔
Well I don’t do VFX, but they seemed to create CGI for movies, like they redid Luke Skywalker in the end of Mandolorian, again, I don’t know.
@@whodahellru8124 It's more about the fact that they're independent TH-camrs, not working under Hollywood constraints.
