: I'm going to go ahead and nominate myself to play Indiana Jones if they ever decide to pass the hat. I WAS Indiana Jones for one month in the Stunt Spectacular Show. Tore some tendons in my knee at a weekend rodeo and wasn't able to do my job. They then set me up to be Stan Laurel at Universal in Orlando but it was to hard to go from playing IJ to Stan Laurel. But now with Harry getting older maybe I'll get that chance again. Ya think? Me neither, but KEEP HOPE ALIVE! I'm still good friends with the original stunt coordinater of the show, he lives in CA now and I've been trying to get him on here to talk about it.

Is it true that they had/have a definite height requirement due to some of the stunts? As I recall, the height limitation for Indy was around 5' 10", and Marion was around 5' 5", or some such number. Sounds like you have a pretty dull life, my friend! (grins) Regards. Michaelson
