The comical British tumbler Damien Walters was always one of the most favorite athletes to watch compete because of his speed, power and huge tricks. Now, he’s a YouTube sensation, and known for his impressive stunts on the big screen.
In 2008, Damien received a phone call from Jackie Chan’s lead stunt coordinator asking him to be a part of the movie, ‘Hellboy II: The Golden Army’. Other movies he has been a part of include Kick-Ass, Ninja Assassin, The Eagle, I Am Number Four, Captain America: The First Avenger and the upcoming Sherlock Holmes film.
Damien also had the opportunity to coach Will Smith’s son, Jayden Smith, gymnastics as well as receive the 2010 Taurus World Stunt Award for ‘best fight scene’ in Ninja Assassin.
Check out his showreel below, as well as a short interview clip of him talking about his life as a stuntman, including the injuries he sustained making the video.
Enjoy – but DON’T try these at home!
