The secret of insanely awesome stunts

How many episodes ahead do you think BamBam is when choreographing the fight sequences and how does he fit it all in the week? It had been bothering me for a while. If you think about it, he’s filming or rehearsing most days, when does he get time to plan?

I decided to go straight to the source and James explained the secret to insanely awesome stunts:

@imwebgurl Try to get my choreography sessions in a week before we shoot if possible, but it isn't always. How? We never sleep.

A week? OMG! If I had guessed I would have said maybe a month. I would never have guessed a week. The stunt team are such a well-oiled machine though. It’s incredible the work they do every week. They are redefining TV action. Hope he gets some sleep soon.
