00:00 Roll camera.

00:01 And a scene.

00:02 Being a stuntman is the best job in the world.

00:06 Take one.

00:07 You're constantly being tested, just risking it all.

00:10 I used to fly.

00:12 Nothing's like it, man.

00:16 Roll camera.

00:18 Stay home, soon as stuntman hits your neck.

00:21 David went in for something, for the sheer fun of it.

00:25 Go David.

00:26 He had no concepts of fear.

00:28 I knew I was going to be a stuntman.

00:30 And I got the best job in the world.

00:33 Lead stunt double for Daniel on the Potter films.

00:36 David just seemed like a cool older brother.

00:40 He would do the most dangerous physical stuff.

00:43 We would do things no one thought was possible.

00:46 What was nice about it was that they all grew up together.

00:49 Ten years on every film.

00:51 It was brilliant.

00:52 Until it wasn't.

00:55 I remember straight after breaking my neck.

00:57 I said, "There's no chance of coming back."

00:59 Worst day in the film is this that I've ever had.

01:05 He shouldn't have had to do any of that.

01:07 In my mind, Dave's indestructible.

01:10 This terrible thing happened to Dave,

01:13 but I don't want to talk as if his life is a tragedy.

01:15 The way his life is affected the lives of people around him

01:18 means that it is the furthest thing from being a good thing.

01:21 The way his life is affected the lives of people around him

01:24 means that it is the furthest thing from that imaginable.

01:27 Three, two, one.

01:28 Sound message!

01:29 Before our accident, everything was about being cool and being a stuntman.

01:35 Now it's about being present.

01:38 I have so much love in my life.

01:41 We're running out of the 40s, right?

01:43 And...

01:44 You got your mum?

01:45 I have lots of great friends.

01:48 I'm so lucky.

01:50 Such a crazy life.

01:51 Cut!

01:53 Such highs and such lows,

01:55 but I was able to find light in the darkest of places.

02:00 And action!
