10: Paul Mantz\r
Paul Mantz was a legendary aerial stuntman in Hollywood, and was once a close friend and tutor to Amelia Earhart, the renowned female aviator who disappeared over the Pacific during her attempt to circumnavigate the globe. And like his mentor, Paul met his end flying a plane. During the production of the film “The Flight of the Phoenix” in 1965, Paul was tasked to fly the Tallmantz Phoenix P-1, an unusual aircraft specifically made for the show. Approved by the FAA, the plane was built with a steel framework covered in plywood, with bits and pieces from other aircrafts. After performing multiple touch-and-go landings, the plane ended up breaking apart after its fuselage buckled. As it continued to break up violently, Pauls body got pinned beneath the wreckage, skilling him instantly. His co-pilot was thrown off clear, and survived with broken bones.\r

9: Matthew Cranch\r
In new, 24-year-old thrill-seeking mechanic Matthew Cranch joined Scott Mays Daredevil Stunt Show, a UK-based touring group of stuntmen known for their signature pieces. In the new Kent County Show, barely a week into the job, Matthew was already performing as a human cannonball, where he was supposed to be fired into the air from a cannon into a safety net. As Matthew was launched, the safety net suddenly fell flat to the ground, while Matthew was still mid-air. He continued on a brief upwards, before unwarily hunching into a ball as he prepared for a non-existent net. In front of all the horrified spectators, he slammed hard onto the ground, sustaining catastrophic injuries. Paramedics were unable to do anything to save his life. Official investigations and inspections of the stunt equipment were made, with the inquest jury deciding the case as an accidental breath. The stunt firm boss however, pleaded guilty to a health and safety charge, and sentencing is still yet to be made.\r

8: Brandon Lee\r
Son of famous or and martial artist Bruce Lee, Brandon followed the steps of his father into the big screen. He started off with low budget ion films, before landing his breakthrough role in 1992 in The Crow as the lead charer Eric Draven, an undebt vigilante brought back from the debt. However, 8 days until the films completed production, Brandon received a gunshot wound while filming, and unlike the charer he portrayed, he stayed debt. In the scene which skilled Brandon, another or was supposed to fire a .44-caliber revolver containing dummy rounds at him. Due to an error caused by the films prop crew, the barrel of the gun had a bullet stuck partway into its barrel. This caused the bullet to be propelled when the blank was fired, hitting Brandon in the abdomen. He fell down as planned, spilling what was presumably fake blood, until he failed to get up. He was rushed to the hospital, and underwent 6 hours of surgery. However, doctors were unable to save him. Although the shooting was ruled an accident, many blamed the producers for not having weapon experts on set. Brandon Lee dyed on March 31, 1993, 20 years after his fathers breath. Some see the tragedy as a fulfillment of a family curse; both father and son dying young at the peak of their film careers.\r

7: Sailendra Nath Roy\r
In new, Sailendra Nath Roy slid 82.5 meters across a zip wire with only his hair attached to it, tied in a looped ponytail - thus registering his name in the Guinness Book of World Records for the farthest distance travelled on a zip wire using hair. Roy has set many other records with his hair in his lifetime, including pulling a 42 ton locomotive train for a distance of 2.5 meters at the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. But the Indian daredevil was not one to simply hold a record. In April new, Roy attempted to beat his previous zip line sliding record, this time travelling across the Teesta River in northeast India. However, his ponytail got stuck in the rope wheeler midway through the stunt. Thousands of onlookers watched as he attempted to continue the crossing with both his hands after failing to free his hair from the wheeler. However, after dangling for more nearly half an hour, the 49 year old mans heart gave out.
