Stunt doubles are people hired to perform stunts for an actor. The stunts they perform are usually deemed too dangerous for the actor or require certain abilities. The double must look similar to his counterpart so the audience doesn't spot the substitution. They are often shot from behind, so only the hair has to be similar.
