Celebrating the skill of stunt performers on YouTube
Stunt performers are often the unsung heroes of Hollywood’s biggest productions, but on YouTube, they take center stage. Combining gymnastics, martial arts, and engineering, creators from a variety of disciplines use both long and short-form videos to show off their incredible skills. They invite audiences in to learn the tricks of the trade and understand how to execute them safely and correctly. (But, these are professionals. Please don’t try this at home without proper safety gear, training and supervision).
Audiences are undeniably captivated by this glimpse into the magic behind the action: Ronnie Street Stunts' video "Meet The Spider-Fam" has received more than 750M views.*
On the day of the 98th Academy Awards, keep an eye out for our unique YouTube logo (also known as the Yoodle), celebrating the relentless spirit of the stunt performer community. Ready to jump into the action? Explore the art of the stunt with this playlist.
