Who is SMG’s stand-in for the gymnastics sequences? We just watched Season 2 Episode 1 (almost the return of the Master) and when she does a hand-stand on the rail in the library, both my wife and I said: “Look at those shoulders!!!”
I’d just like to know who we’re yelling at.
She’s had several; the current one is significantly heftier than SMG (go figure). One of the recent episodes, when Sunndale High students were being taken over by the first, featured a bunch of fight scenes in and below the high schools were we got to see the main characters beating up on their own stunt doubles. Neat!
The IMDB lists:
Noby Arden … stunt double: Buffy #2
Melissa Barker … stunt double: Buffy
Sophia Crawford … stunt double: Buffy (1996-2000)
Diana Lee Inosanto … martial arts stunt double: Sarah Michelle Gellar
duh…never thought of the IMDB because…well…it’s not a movie, it’s TV!
Cool! Diana Inosanto is, I believe, the daughter of Dan Inosanto. (Who’s that?) Inosanto was one of the first students of Bruce Lee, way back when, and one of the top martial artists of our time. Way, way cool that they got her on the show.
