i've been in the stunt world for about

0:15

38 years and when you don't find me on

0:17

camera working stunts or choreographing

0:19

action you can find me in my karate

0:20

school teaching martial arts

0:23

today i'll be breaking down the art and

0:24

science of stunt driving

0:27

the vehicle to demonstrate the making of

0:29

a good stunt vehicle i'll be using these

0:31

lego technic models just like the real

0:33

vehicles they're built tough

0:36

all stunt vehicles have reinforced

0:37

suspension frames and roofs hand brakes

0:40

are added and we have a six point roll

0:42

cage and a five point harness before a

0:44

big stunt my team will plan it out with

0:45

the use of concrete chalk and a

0:48

miniature vehicle

0:49

a good stunt man always plants his

0:51

stunts out on a smaller scale

0:53

the classic stunts

0:55

maybe we have a scene where our vehicle

0:57

has to fly up on two wheels and go down

0:59

an alleyway and miss people all right

1:01

when we do this we call that high skiing

1:03

it's very popular but it's very

1:05

difficult to do

1:06

one of my favorite stunts is going to be

1:08

the reverse j turn it's where we start

1:11

our vehicle back it up in reverse

1:13

approximately 35 miles an hour whip his

1:15

wheel to the left bringing that front

1:16

around drop and drive and accelerate

1:18

away

1:20

ramp jumping we have a stable ramp a

1:23

vehicle hits it mark flies in either

1:25

pancakes or crashes off that ramp

1:27

and now the most popular of all ramps is

1:29

the pipe ramp we insert the pipe ramp we

1:31

can adjust the height and angle our

1:33

vehicle backs up

1:35

hits the ramp

1:36

launches and twists and turns all

1:38

way over

1:40

at the end of the day it all comes down

1:42

to safety and preparation

1:44

well i really enjoy working with lego

1:46

technic

1:47

they're as close to the real thing as

1:48

possible for us not only are they built

1:50

rugged and strong and contain roll cages

1:53

that roll

1:54

tires of turn

1:55
