You may be looking for stunt performers in the real world.

A stuntman performed stunts on film sets, which were often safe but designed to look dangerous. Bruce Lee was known to have worked with stuntmen. (COMIC: The White Dragon)

Samson Ware worked as a stuntman in the 1960s, seeking the rush of adrenaline he missed from being a soldier. In August 1969, Samson was hired for the show BLIMEY. (PROSE: The Showstoppers)

Behind the scenes[]

Samson's career as a stuntman, as well as his surname, was a deliberate tribute to Derek Ware, who died shortly before work began on The Showstoppers.
