00:00 He's buckled in. Stunts are ready.
00:01 Godspeed, Colt.
00:03 Fall Guy is a reflection of my experience as a stunt performer.
00:07 Let's go. The shot's gonna be epic.
00:08 There really is a practical element to every stunt we do in the movie.
00:13 For David to have made this a love letter
00:15 to the traditional way of doing stunts, it was just beautiful.
00:19 A cannon roll?
00:21 It's time for you to start rolling cars again instead of parking them.
00:26 The day that we shot the cannon roll was definitely the most emotional day
00:30 I've ever had on a set,
00:32 and it might have been one of the most tense days of my life.
00:35 We're making a movie that's an homage to stunt performers.
00:38 Why don't we make sure that we're doing the best and biggest versions of those,
00:42 and maybe we can break some records.
00:44 Let's go.
00:45 The record-breaking cannon roll was done by Logan Holiday.
00:48 The previous record for rolls out of a cannon roll was seven rolls.
00:53 An incredible amount of things have to go right and be perfect
00:56 in order for this to work.
00:57 We did the first take. It was still an amazing roll,
01:02 but it wasn't what we were trying to achieve.
01:04 But we had one more car.
01:05 We finally came up with this calculation that gave us eight and a half rolls.
01:11 Action.

01:22 Logan's good.
01:32 [CHEERING]
01:33 Just eruption of cheers.
01:35 So exciting for Logan.
01:37 Eight and a half rolls, and it was perfect.
01:41 I knew I did a lot of rolls. I had no idea how many,
01:44 but I had a pretty good feeling that we did it.
01:46 Logan Holiday is being recognized by the Guinness World Record
01:50 for most cannon rolls in a car.
01:52 Eight and a half rolls!
