THE BRAVEST STUNTMAN IN THE WORLD
The Bravest Stuntman in the World exposes the harrowing truth behind John Taylor’s infamous motorcycle stunt in 1980s Liverpool. Known for attempting one of the world’s most dangerous and illegal jumps over two high-rise tower blocks, John’s motivations transcended everything. His stunt was a desperate cry for justice—an act of defiance born out of years of silence; it was his last hope to build a platform where he could be heard.
Today, he’s on a mission to lift the lid on an even bigger failure at the heart of the UK’s government, a mission that will stop his story ever being repeated.
Produced by Rory Rooney and Eight Trick Pony, with Archive Producer Dan Kilroy (Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story), The Bravest Stuntman in the World is the debut documentary feature film of Andrew Michael Carruthers.
This is not just a film—it’s a rallying cry, The Bravest Stuntman in the World shines a light on those fighting for change. It demands accountability from a government that continues to resist laws already in place in 90% of the world. This film will leave audiences moved, enraged, and ready to act.
