alright, we all know the supercommercial with diet pepsi, right? well if you don't, jackie chan is in a movie with diet pepsi, and diet pepsi is about to get attacked by the people and then they switch him out with his stunt double diet coke, who looks like he gets squshed.

anyways.

diet pepsi needs diet coke to do his stunts because diet pepsi's too much of a wimp to do his own stunts.

yea.

okay.

so the point of this thread is: do you think actors that use stunt doubles, like, the young ones, are wimpy?

the diet pepsi wasn't a wimp, he just didn't want to die. not wanting to die for a movie sequence isn't wimpy!!

anyway i think it depends. if the actor is old then yeah they definately should have a stunt double, old people are fragile. if they have a medical condition then they should also have a stunt double.

but if the person is young and fully capable of doing their own stunts then yes, opting for a stunt double is wimpy.
