New college classes are starting now, and if your course load looks like this…
- Run over by a car 101
- Kicked in the head 101
- Gut-shot 101
- Enveloped in flames 101
- Algebra 101
…then you must be a freshman at the “Hollywood Stunts” academy, I guess with a minor in math. If these sound like the sort of activities you’ve been doing for free all your life, you may want to attend the academy and turn them into a glamorous, if painful, career. Have a look at our photo slideshow:

Cool, dude!

…Or my husband and his brother running away from the fireworks that apparently had very fast burning fuses.
