Stunts

A stunt is where a competent person, such as a professional stunt artist, simulates an apparently dangerous activity in a careful and controlled manner.
 
No member of the public may participate in a stunt or be put at risk of serious injury by the performance of a stunt. Children must not take part in any stunt.
 
Where a stunt involves an aircraft, special permission must be obtained from the Civil Aviation Authority. The British Parachute Association should be consulted for all stunts involving parachute jumps. NB Base jumps are not legal in the UK.
