#BTS This was one of the most challenging and exciting jobs I’ve ever been on. On day one, after five hours, we successfully placed the truck on top of Castle Rock. Our pilot precisely long‑lined it on a 200‑foot line, placing the truck exactly on the mark. The front tires were only four to six inches off—pretty incredible considering 200 foot line.
On the second day, we were dropped off early in the morning before sunrise to get everything ready for the crew to come up. It was freezing cold, and the winds were already strong. I expected the conditions to improve once the sun came up, but the opposite happened. We were hit with rain lightning, and heavy winds and stayed up there for five hours before realizing we had to get down too windy for the helicopters to pick us up getting cold and wet.
With no other option, we rappelled more than 400 feet to the bottom and then hiked out to the main road. On the third day, everything finally came together. We made it back up, shot all day, and absolutely nailed it. Huge thanks to an outstanding team of climbers and pilots, and to our incredible artist, who never showed fear for a single second. Overall, it was an intense, demanding experience that demonstrated what’s possible with precision, trust, and an exceptional team.

PAT ROMANO

Pat Romano is a stunt coordinator, rigger and performer with over 30 years of experience. He is the founder and owner of the stunt rigging company Romano Stunt Rentals, leading the industry with cutting edge equipment, innovative techniques, and a team of trusted professionals seen in over 2000 commercials and more than 400 television shows and features.

Pat got his start in the industry with his bicycle riding expertise as a member of the BMX Action Trick Team, the first and most famous of all the freestyle teams that would spring up across the globe in the 1980’s performing many shows across North America and their Summer tours. Romano introduced the fixed gear and fork pegs to BMX and pioneered tricks such as “the boomerang”.

After a few years or working as a stuntman, Hal Needham gave Pat his big break as stunt coordinator on the film Rad (1986) about a BMX racing star. Pat has since gone on to coordinate hundreds of films, television shows, commercials and music videos.

In 2009 Pat won a Screen Actors Guild Award in the category Outstanding Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Television Series for his work on Heroes. The same year he received a SAG Award nomination in the same category for his work on Prison Break.

Pat has been the president of Romano Rentals for over 30 years and served a six year term as president of Stunts Unlimited from 2012-2018.
