Our History

Early 1970, the Western Era in film and television had ended, and there was need for advancement in stunt performance and technology. Three prominent stuntmen, Hal Needham, Ronnie Rondell and Glenn Wilder banded together to create an elite organization comprised of Hollywood’s top A-list stunt performers where stunts would be UNLIMITED. They made it impossible to join, and only recruited new members through private and studied observations. Eleven top prospects were invited into their group, and STUNTS UNLIMITED was born.

STUNTS UNLIMITED became Hollywood’s best-kept secret and the most sought after action group. If you wanted the best, you came to STUNTS UNLIMITED. Its membership consists of the top motorcycle racers, car drivers, horsemen, pilots, aerial specialists, and fight choreographers, all with the innovative ideas and progressive thinking needed for the future of stunts in film and television.
