STUNTMAN-ON-STAND-BY BLUES

Nothing much happening at the moment... kind of running idle... in between shoots... still ailing from a torn adductor tendon... oh gee, sounds just like the ol' Stuntman-On-Stand-By Blues...

Yesterday, a bunch of guys from our wushu posse went to do a little Sunday exercise in our much frequented local gymnastics hall. We usually go there to practise our tumbling & acro & stuff.

I couldn't do a lot because of my injury, but just to kill time I whipped myself through a few basic flips until the pain got a little too much (oh Christ, what a wimp)!

Seems that I'll be limited to pompin' arn for a while.

Stunt buddy Thommy is still working on his self-inflicted stuntwork task schedule (check out his page on AnD). So, I tried to make myself useful, struttin' (or limpin', rather) around the hall and giving advice to everyone who didn't ask for it.

Later that afternoon we were joined by Li Yanlong , my honorable wushu teacher, friend & business partner... so I summoned everyone for YET ANOTHER thrilling group photo. From left to right: Gramps Joost (our old gymnastics coach), Thommy, his galpal Nina, my humble self, Master Li, and Mathieu (check out that  six pack, girls!).

I'll be back on the set in about a week's time, so I reckon dopamine will be flowing freely again soon... HOORAY!!!
