Caught up on some retro film & TV over Xmas, amazing to see a middle-aged Tony Curtis doing what looks like pretty dangerous stunt work himself! The shots where you can see his face are him, and this is pre-CGI so there aren't any safety wires or crash mats being hidden. Insurance etc would never allow this today 😱

Curtis wasn't particularly known as an action hero, but in his younger days he was in a film about a trapeze artist, perhaps he picked up some skills there and kept in shape?

(This clip is from a series called "The Persuaders" from 1971)
