ENJOYING THE THRILL
Most people want a peaceful job, with no danger,
but not Simon Addlington. Simon is a film
stuntman. He does all the dangerous things that
the main actors dont want to do! Hes jumped off
a moving train, and hes driven a car into a deep
river. Hes also run into burning buildings and
swum in the sea with sharks. I dont really get
scared, Simon says. I just feel very excited when
Im going to do something dangerous. Im also
careful. I only take risks if theyre necessary.
Simon has had a lot of injuries in his job. Hes
broken one of his legs, and hes sprained his
shoulder five times. Hes also burnt his arms
twice, when he ran into a burning building for a
James Bond film. But he doesnt mind the injuries,
because he loves his job. Its more interesting
than working in an office! he says.

__________________!

animals.
4 He doesnt feel ________________ when hes working.
