Daniel Craig's Rail Stunt

Post by The Sweeney »

Daniel Craig performed a few of his own stunts on the set of Skyfall this week, when he jumped off a moving container then hauled himself back on with only a couple of knee pads to protect him.

But a stunt double was on hand in Adana, Turkey, to take over when things got more serious, as we can see from the photos below.

Daniel Craig's stunt double Kenny Baker is doing a great job by all accounts.

Yes however Kenny gets more action.

Makes sense really Daniel is a glorified stunt man, a shame what the series has fallen to. Most TV actors in the UK do more of their own stunk work than Daniel has even dreamed of. Harold Lloyd he is not.
