Did Angelina do any of of her stunts?
I was wondering if Angie actually did any of her own stunts in either of the TR movies? I know she did the the one from the chandelier in the first one, but that is well it.

Depends on who you ask. She had stunt doubles, and there were pics of them too in action, but some rabid fans will tell you how she was better than the double, so she ended up doing them all blah blah blah
I remember the jet-ski flips were done by a male |

She did almost all of her own stunts. There were a few where doubles were needed to prevent any legal/insurance issues with Angie if injuries were to occur. If you watch the behind the scenes stunts for both the Tomb Raider movies, the directors and Angie herself explain this.

The best thing Angelina did was ride the beam in the first movie. Not very far off the ground mind you and she still had a safety harness on to ensure she could not fall off. Anything filmed further up would have been done by the stunt double. At first they would not even let her do that much but apparently the stunt double could not manage to get up from a prone position. The beam itself was moved automatically, All Angelina had to do was get up and look like she was actually doing something, which is why she is a good actress. They act, they pretend to do things, they do not do real stunts, the insurance people would never allow them to do anything dangerious. Still actors manage to hurt themselves even falling on nice soft surfaces, or walking into things, the film would never get done if the director actually allowed them to do anything dangerious. The star would be spending all their time in hospital! If Angelina did all the fancy trick riding in the shooting scene in the second movie it was not bad, but having had Angelina say once she did all her own stunts when it was obvious she did not, I no longer believed Angelina did any. She had fun doing the bungie ballet, but that was not really dangerious. Angelina went no where near the ground while doing it, the lower stuff was done another way. And it is easy to jump off a chandelier with safety ropes and guide wires, they never trusted her to jump onto the chandelier. She stood there for her close up, very dangerious that, standing around is not usually considered a stunt. Last edited by aussie500; 01-04-12 at 06:03. |

As well as the wingsuit base jump. Both of the jumpers in that scene are from a Swedish base jumping team, I forget the name of it. One of the guys runs the world base race now.
