Wow! What a blast. I spent three months in Turkey working as a stunt driver / stunt performer on the latest 007 film which is entitled 'Skyfall'. I met lots of great people including some of the top Hollywood stunt guys.
Here are some pictures.
Me and my best mate Ümit Demirbas who also worked on this film as a stuntman.

He has constantly been writing action movie scripts and is currently in production of his directorial debut, a martial arts tournament movie called 'Pehlivan' which is to be shot on-location in Jakarta and Istanbul.
