let me get this straight...Allen Haff wants to sell a "landing bag" for movie jump scenes, that he just got from a storage unit..so he climbs up an old building (he's gotta "prove" the bag works to score the agreed upon selling price)....,leaves on his SUNGLASSES...peers precariously over the ledge...stands up straight to commence his dive..then.."CUT , where's the stunt guy???"... insert stunt man,edit taping..and perfect flip to land on his back,sunglasses and all....BIG PROFIT,right?.... wait,wait... according to some internet research (ehow.com) on StuntMan wages. " TV Minimums.... Stuntmen and coordinators get $809 a day, or $1,081 daily for pilots in the studio, or $1,406 daily for pilots on location. Weekly rates for stunt performers, coordinators and pilots are $3,015, though pilots receive a $927 adjustment for flying"... hmmm did that get deducted from from the "profit" total at the end of the show?
