<p>INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, DEADLY, AND FUN. Incredible Stunts is like Fear Factor on steroids. Famed action photographer Jeffery R. Werner has assembled an amazing collection of images from his exclusive archive of photos taken over the past two decades of daredevils and stuntmen pushing themselves to the limit. This is the first full-length, extensive photo book of stunts, extreme sports, and daredevil mayhem created for both kids and adults alike. Daredevils inhabit an adrenaline-drenched world where motorcycles fly, people dive through flaming infernos, airplanes hug the ground, and bodies are shattered more often than records. New faces come and go so fast that the only 'regulars' are the paramedics who pick up the pieces... and photojournalist Jeffery R. Werner. Daredevils are an extreme form of stuntmen who, like Evel Knievel, do increasingly dangerous stunts, searching for that elusive combination of fame, fortune, and glory. This concept made Evel Knievel millions as he gambled his life on jumping ever further on his motorcycle, setting a Guinness World Record for the most broken bones from over a dozen major crashes during his career. A near-fatal crash while attempting to jump the fountains at Caesar s Palace in Las Vegas left him in a month-long coma. Heavy media coverage speculating when, and if, he'd regain consciousness made him a household name. This is the sort of legacy on which legions of daredevils stake their lives and their livelihoods. No one knows this bizarre world better than Jeffery R. Werner who, at times, has had to risk his own life to capture these death-defying images. Werner has spent nearly three decades traveling to over 60 countries to cover the high-velocity drama and mayhem captured for posterity in this book. Dubbed 'the da Vinci of Daredevil Photography', he has carved his niche as the best action photographer in the business. Werner's ability to capture what Cartier-Bresson called 'the decisive moment' in this dynamic collection of daredevils and other eccentrics is unmatched by anyone, anywhere. Incredible Stunts also explores the world of film and TV stunts, as well as the stunt masters whose innovative skills inject an air of impossibility into every action sequence they create and choreograph. For his spectacular body of work, Werner was inducted into The Stuntworld Hall of Fame, an honor never before bestowed on a still photographer.</p>
