Ryan Gosling And Emily Blunt Present ‘The Fall Guy’ Stuntman With Guinness World Record

Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt are honoring the man who made their latest film possible.

The “Fall Guy” (2024) stars attended a special screening of the action comedy Wednesday in Los Angeles. Mere days after delivering a tribute to stunt performers at the Oscars, they presented “Fall Guy” stuntman Logan Holladay with a Guinness World Record.

His death-defying feat? Doing eight and a half cannon rolls in a car for the first time ever.

Universal Pictures noted in a press release that the cannon roll is “a classic stunt dating back to the early days of cinema” and involves “fitting a cannon-like apparatus” under a car — which “shoots toward the ground” while driving — to propel it “into a series of rolls.”

Holladay pulled that stunt off in a Jeep Grand Cherokee and dethroned previous record-holder Adam Kirley, who completed seven cannon rolls for the James Bond film “Casino Royale” (2006), and said Wednesday “it was a surreal moment” he’s “incredibly proud of.”

He added in a statement: “After two practice runs and one real take, we had one car and one shot left. I had a pretty good feeling that I had broken the record [after hitting eight and a half rolls] because it felt like the spinning was never going to stop.”

Guinness said the stunt was filmed in Australia in 2021 but “kept under wraps until now.”

The David Leitch movie follows stuntman Colt Seavers (Gosling) as he doubles for action star Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) for a film directed by his ex-girlfriend (Blunt). When Ryder ominously vanishes, Seavers embarks on a high-octane rescue mission.

For Gosling and Blunt, who respectively said in their tribute Sunday that stunt performers have “been such a cubical part of our industry since the beginning of cinema” and
