Most people have their own favourite action star, but did you know that the people you see doing most of the exciting things are not the movie stars? Most movie actors use stunt people (特技表演者) for action scenes with fights, fires, falls and other dangerous activities.

Who are stuntmen or stuntwomen? They are well-trained people. They have studied sports like gymnastics or kung fu, and they are in excellent physical condition. They have also learned to use special equipment (設(shè)備) to help them with the stunts. One example of this is the Russian swing (秋千跳水). It can help a stunt person fly over a house.

There are, however, some actors who do their own stunts and who have done stunts for other actors. One of these actors is Jackie Chan. In 1971, he was a stuntman for Bruce Lee. He can do stunts and act because he has studied music, drama and kung fu since he was six. Since 1980, Jackie has often used kung fu and his comedy into his movies, and has achieved his own special style. Jackie even won an award at the World Stunt Awards show in 2002.

So the next time when you watch an action movie, be sure to look carefully at the actor doing the dangerous scenes. It might not be the star.
