Episode 5: Silent films are often remembered for their physical gags--always good for a laugh, over in a second. But behind these gags lay planning, courage and skill. Stuntmen took the risks while the stars took the credit--and it was a firm rule that no stuntman could reveal the tricks of his trade. They have kept silent-until now. Here at last, legendary stuntmen Yakima Canutt, Harvey Parry, Bob Rose and Paul Malvern tell the hair-raising stories behind their greatest stunts.

Includes rare footage and excerpts from PLAY SAFE (1923), THE BLACK PIRATE (1926) and LILAC TIME (1928); also interviewed are Colleen More, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Leatrice Joy, and more.
