Jiri Stanek has been working in a show business for more than three decades. He started first as a Stunt performer and worked for a Stunt Agency in the Czech Republic, EU, but after several dangerous situations where his life was threatened and safety protocols wasn’t followed he decided to move to US. In Los Angeles he learned all aspects of Stunt work including the most important part of Stunt business “Safety” from the best, Stuntmen, Stunt coordinators and also 2nd Unit Directors in a film industry in Hollywood.

Jiri as a stunt double and a Stunt actor had to work closely with directors. He was inspired by them and that’s what motivated him to put Stunt career on hold and rather study directing and screenwriting. He returned to the Country and the place where it all started.
