B.J. Worth is currently The Chairman of the Board of the United States Parachute Association. (1)

He is also a movie stunt coordinator doing skydiving related stunts -- most notably in the James Bond series. (2)

He is also a very well known and well respected world record size big-way organizer (3) and has been instrumental in a number of other high-profile skydives. (4)

Is there something you're specifically looking for?

I admire B.J. Worth. Here comes my next question - how much money can he make from each James Bond movie. I am asking because that has to be a very lucky man. Traveling, doing what you love and then watching 'James Bond' movie with friends and be able to say - look - that's me!... :)

So how much can B.J. (or other stuntmen) make of let's say 'Golden Eye' or 'Moonraker'. I am sure these figures are not some kind of secret... I am simply looking for some industry rates, not B.J.'s personal financial data. I am also courios and jealous :P.

Not nearly enough to live off of for an extended period of time. They are only paid a small amount compared to the "stars". As to the actual rates -- it's all going to depend on exactly what they're doing and what they'll agree to do it for.

I think B.J. is planning another big way, record attempt in Thailand (this winter). I jump with a guy who get's invited to all these, so he keeps me posted. I remember jumping with B.J. (in the old days) when a ten-way was considered big......Steve1
