“When you're still playing, you're lifting, you're conditioning and you're still young. You can stunt the onset of some of these disabilities. But as time goes on, particularly for African-American players, things like diabetes become more pronounced. Obesity is an issue for people in general ... and the NFL can take the forefront on this by stressing good nutrition.”
Angelo Wright
“They stunt and blitz a lot, so it's a matter of shutting down some of those stunts up front. I think if we can stop some of the stunts there should be some holes to run in.”
Dan Kreider
“When you hear actors say, 'Oh, I did all my own stunts,' it is usually crap! It's one thing jumping into water or whatever, but the real stunts are more properly done by stunt men. And it is too financially risky to have actors risk their necks, isn't it?”
Sam Neill
“Well one of the times I did a stunt was in the devil's snare room and they lifted me up on a harness and a safety rope really, really high, and they just dropped me down into the devil's snare.”
Rupert Grint
“Myself and Kelvin both had stunt doubles. And Charlie Kemp who plays Max had a dummy. They had shots of us driving the cars but at a safe distance from each other. And then the crash ends in tragedy, which is very exciting.”
Karl Davies
“All of our stunts guys, too. Rich Taylor, David Pingry, Dave Castillo, Jimmy Roberts, our stunt coordinator, these guys all came off the pro circuit and at 28, 29 years old they're retired from the sport because their bodies had taken such a beating at that point I've gone out riding with those guys a lot since the film, and it's cool because you don't get that kind of training every day.”
Mike Vogel
“When you think something can't be done, that's when he pulls off another stunt.”
Vince Carter
