Part 4.
2
You will hear an interview with a man called Guy Reardon who works as a stuntman performing dangerous scenes in movies.
3
When you see a fight or a car chase in a movie,
4
it's often a stuntman or woman taking the risks, not a real actor.
5
Guy Reardon's a top stuntman.
6
Guy, do you usually work individually or in a team?
7
It depends.
8
In my first job I was part of a team of other stuntmen.
9
Several of us had to jump off a fourth floor rooftop together and get caught by the group on the ground.
10
That involved relying on everyone else to do things properly,
11
which wasn't something I enjoyed.
12
Despite that uncertainty, I hoped my strength and sense of timing would get me through.
13
Audiences rarely appreciate the lengths we go to to provide their entertainment.
14
Obviously it's dangerous, but what's the most challenging thing for you about the work?
15
It's a wonderful job, but like any career,
16
you have to have tools.
17
For a stuntman it's his or her body,
18
and if a stunt goes wrong you can end up badly hurt.
19
If I thought about that though,
20
I'd never do the job.
21
But it's the never-ending process to up your game,
22
to expand and extend what you're good at, that's the toughest bit.
23
Of course there's a lot of competition in the stunt world,
24
that makes it exciting.
25
What was it like working on the movie Raw Stuff?
26
It's based on a true story about soldiers in action,
27
so it was extremely important that the stunts didn't look like standard movie action sequences.
28
The mountains we were filming in were stunning,
29
which made up for having to hike up with 25 kilos of equipment on our backs.
30
You just didn't notice the weight.
31
The view from the top was sensational.
32
The tricky part was tumbling onto rocky mountain ledges so
33
that the camera could be as close as possible and the audiences would see and feel what those soldiers went through.
34
You've often acted as a stunt double for the actor Marty Walker.
35
Yeah, Marty and I get on.
36
He varies his size drastically from one movie to the next.
37
He can go from athletic action hero to skinny professor in some major body transformations.
38
His dedication to doing that's amazing.
39
It affects me as well.
40
I had to put on weight for his last movie.
41
Marty wanted to do the motorbike stunts himself,
42
but we persuaded him not to.
43
It involved jumping off at high speed.
44
Pretty silly for an untrained person to try and do,
45
or even a stuntman.
46
Which movie do you remember filming most?
47
Light at Dawn.
48
They wanted me to say some lines, real acting.
49
After a few attempts, I gave up and asked for someone else to do it.
50
The director, Peter Levine, was very ambitious.
51
Some things he asked for hadn't been tried before.
52
It was truly a pleasure when we got things right.
53
We filmed all over the world.
54
Everyone on what was a huge film crew was completely exhausted flying from one place to the next.
55
How long have you been in the movie industry?
56
Twenty years.
57
I've seen some changes.
58
There's more technology these days,
59
but there's just as great a need for stunt actors.
60
Some things can only be performed by a real human.
61
I've worked with some great people in some great locations and had a lot of laughs,
62
something that's increasingly missing these days because there's so much at stake.
63
But that does mean the financial rewards for those who get into the big movies are generally worth it.
64
I can't say I've been unlucky in that respect.
65
What would you advise someone wanting to do your job?
66
Stunt work's become highly specialised over the years.
67
There's high falls, fight scenes,
68
horse stunts, car chases, the list goes on.
69
There's no easy answer to the question of whether it's better to become skilled at one thing or be diverse.
70
I don't try and discourage people from getting into stunts,
71
but I do try to convince them to have another source of income to fall back on.
72
Most stuntmen I know also do things like construction,
73
security, web design, and though everyone has an agent to find them work,
74
it's so often about your own contact rather than anything else.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
