About This Episode
Marine coordinator Jimmy O’Connell has seen his fair share of major underwater films. From Waterworld (remember that movie?) to the award-winning Life of Pi to All is Lost, this is the perspective of a guy you don’t hear from often.
It’s people like Jimmy who make magic happen. Those crazy stunts that you take for granted, Jimmy has spent months figuring out how to get it done.
What you see in an instant on screen is the result of major planning. And when it comes to underwater stunts, there’s all the more planning and caution that goes into working with water as a backdrop. You need a great team and time to execute.
