Reveal Your Inner Stuntman with John Davis

Spina Bifida Diagnosis, Bruce Lee Inspiration, Stunt Career

At age 22, John Davis was diagnosed with spina bifida occulta after a back injury while lifting clay, leading doctors to claim he would never have a physical career. Inspired by Bruce Lee’s book "The Tao of Jeet Kune Do," written while Lee was in traction, Davis refused surgical pins in his back to maintain the flexibility required for stunts and high falls.
