Disney Stuntman Documentary Clip Shows DeathDefying Rocket Jump [EXCLUSIVE]

Stunt performers are often Hollywood’s unsung heroes, but in the new Disney+ movie, Stuntman, one takes the spotlight and Screen Rant has two exclusive clips. The new Disney+ film follows professional stuntman Eddie Braun as he prepares and attempts the most dangerous stunt of his career – recreating the infamous Snake River Canyon rocket jump that almost killed the legendary Evel Knievel. The documentary film, executive produced by Dwanye Johnson, premieres on Disney+ on July 23.

Braun has had a long career in Hollywood, performing stunts on movies and shows such as Walker, Texas Ranger, Prison Break, the Transformers movies, and the Rush Hour series just to name a few. He was thinking about retiring and decided to finish out his career with a bang, performing the rocket jump, the most dangerous stunt of his career. Braun financed the project himself and worked with Knievel’s son and Scott Truax, the son of the NASA rocket scientist who built Evel’s original doomed rocket, on the project.

Check out the first exclusive clip below showing Braun completing this death-defying stunt. While it slightly gives away the documentary’s ending (Braun is still alive today), it does not make the video any less astonishing or heart-pounding. The real thing to watch here is the expertise, passion, and excitement of all involved. The project is clearly a labor of love, with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears poured into this outcome.

The second exclusive clip, above, shows Braun working on a stunt for the FX series Sons of Anarchy. It’s incredible to see the camera angle inside the car during the stunt and then watch the result as Braun’s car flips into the air and rolls down a cliff. He’s done this for over 30 years, surviving car crashes, explosions, and high-falls. With scenes like these, Stuntman looks more like an action film than a documentary. This combination creates a unique and electrifying film worthy of one of the biggest action stars in the industry.

Official synopsis: Millions have seen his work, but nobody has seen his face. From Director Kurt Mattila comes the visceral and inspirational film Stuntman. It follows professional Hollywood Stuntman Eddie Braun as he prepares and attempts the most dangerous stunt of his career. Contemplating retirement and having survived over three decades of hellacious car crashes, explosions, high falls, and death-defying leaps, Eddie Braun decides to finish out his career by recreating the infamous Snake River Canyon rocket jump, an audacious televised event that almost killed the man who inspired Eddie to become a professional stuntman: Evel Knievel. Eddie teams up with Scott Truax, the son of the NASA rocket scientist who built Evel’s original doomed rocket and together they hope to clear the canyon along with the Truax family name. With new music from rock icon Slash (featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators) and a mesmerizing score by Jeremy Zuckerman (Avatar: The Last Airbender), Stuntman straddles the line between documentary and non-fiction action film, offering a rare look into the entertainment industry’s most dangerous and anonymous profession through the eyes of one of its renowned veterans as he risks his life for some of the biggest action stars in the world.
