CHUCK NORRIS TRIBUTE 1940-2026
Mar 2000:07:02Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailWe learn today via social media of the passing of a huge action icon.CHUCK NORRIS was part of a stunt family. Not just in his films but in his actual family. AARON, and ERIC were both stuntmen who moved into the world of stunt coordination and directing.A Norris production was always a fun ride according g to those who worked with him. He was alway there to take advice, give it with his huge martial arts experience and be prepared to stand back and let the stunt double take over when it was deemed appropriate, not only for the actor but also for the film.He will be sorely missed.....thank you for everything you did sir.Support the showIf you've enjoyed this episode then why not follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook using the following linkhttps://linktr.ee/behindthestunts
