Peter Armstrong's dive off the cliff


Is amazing! Just saying.

I heard that when asked if he would ever do it again he just said "NO WAY!"

I've been to that cliff. It is just as high in real life as it looks in the film. And it's very rocky at the base. I'm amazed that he pulled the jump off. It's a really cool classic stunt.

I agree. That particular stunt was very exciting and impressive indeed.

I saw various interviews with the man about this dive...There also is an interview taken from The Danger Freaks documentaries in "Not Quite Hollywood".
Sounds (and looks) it was a pretty pain full landing a bit similar to Grant Page's stunt in Mad Dog Morgan.
