I love your work! Thanks for doing this AMA. How is it being famous? When did you first get into films?

u/vernetroyer replied

got started in 93. A movie called Baby's Day Out. I was the stunt double for a baby. John Hughes produced it.

I read that you were a stuntman in the smash hit holiday classic "Jingle All the Way"? How was Arnold like behind the scenes? Is Sinbad really crazy?

u/vernetroyer replied

Sinbad is hilarious. Arnold was HUUGGEE. I suggested he run for Governor one day. For better or worse he took my advice.

Verne! Thanks for doing this. Was wondering, when filming Austin Powers , how difficult was it to not talk at all? Did you slip up often?

It was difficult because Mike improves constantly and so you have to just react, but I liked the challenge of not being able to say anything but still having to get my point across. Ruined many scenes because we couldn't keep a straight face. The scene with the cat where I'm trying to bite it, I was smirking the whole time
