STUNTMEN TO HONOR ‘AH-NULD’

STUNTMEN TO HONOR ‘AH-NULD’

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) – Hollywood stunt performers are tripping over themselves to honor Arnold Schwarzenegger. It seems the World Stunt Academy will hold its first-ever awards show in May and “Ah-nuld” is scheduled to receive the group’s “Taurus Honorary Award.” Stunt member Billy Lucas – who has been Schwarzenegger’s stunt double for 10 years – says the action star deserves the honor because “a lot of the movies he does are action-orientated and employ a lot of people.” Lucas also says Schwarzenegger understands the risks of being a stuntman and treats stunt doubles with respect. Schwarzenegger is expected to accept the award in person, but Lucas jokes that if Ah-nuld hurts himself on the way to the podium, he’s willing to accept the honor on his behalf.
