	Stunt double - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A stunt double is a type of body double, specifically a skilled replacement used for dangerous film or video sequences, in movies and television (such as jumping out of a building, jumping from vehicle to vehicle, or other similar actions), and for other sophisticated stunts (especially fight scenes).
		Stunt doubles should be distinguished from stunt performers, who perform stunts for the sake of the stunt alone, often as a career.
		"Stunt double" is not the exclusive province of humans; several dog actors are used as doubles, for example Enzo was the stunt double for his aging sire Moose on the sitcom Frasier.

	Sarah Michelle Gellar Fan Page - Michele Waitman (SMG Stunt Double) Interview
		I have been a stunt double for many different girls, women, and boys, but I also do non descriptive (ND) stunts.
		I would say that probably the worst part about being a stunt dble is having to wear high heels or very little clothing while stunting an actress.
		The best part about being a stunt double, of course doing the stunt itself, but also meeting so many talented people that I would have never met.
