Legend Gone: It is with great sadness that we share the news of this loss

Mad Max stuntman Grant Page, 85, dies in a horrific car crash Many people worship the figure of the “legend”.

The Australian celebrity was driving alone when the accident happened, so paramedics quickly arrived at the scene.

Police and paramedics arrived within minutes, but the movie star died very sadly.

His 49-year-old son Leroy said his father was a “legend” who is now making new movies.

“He died in very good spirits and very motivated,” he told Daily Mail Australia. It brought him great joy.

No further details of the incident, which happened in New South Wales on Thursday, have been confirmed.

 Deathcheaters, Roadgames, Stunt Rock, and The Man from Hong Kong are some of Page’s best-known action films.

His latest projects are Three Thousand Years of Longing and Furiosa, a prequel to Mad Max, which will be released later this year.

The stuntman began performing in the 1970s and was revered by his admirers.

According to his former manager Brian Trenchard-Smith, “I’ve known Gibson Page for 52 years; he was Australia’s first stuntman.”

“I will miss her terribly. His manly life served as an inspiration to others.

“Most people know that aging makes us heavier, that gravity pulls us down, and that death awaits us if we test our limits.” Granted, he could change probability and physics, so it wasn’t necessary.

Trenchard-Smith claims to have “extraordinary ability” in stunt driving.

“He’s the guy you dodge cars, slide off a burning cliff, jump into the water, and fight a shark.”

Jamie Blanks, an Australian director, wrote on his website: “I have just heard the devastating news that my dear friend and legendary Australian stuntman Grant Page has passed away.”

“Grant was one of the most amazing, kindest, and bravest men I have ever met.

I am devastated to hear of the passing of this Australian legend today. Rest in peace, Grant.

Australian film critic Dr. Luke Buckmaster described him as “brave, brilliant, and devilishly cheeky” and said his legacy is “written in tire stripes and burn marks”.

Among his most famous maneuvers was the “transfer” technique.

They were speeding down the road when he jumped from one car window to another in a matter of seconds.

In addition to his four sons Leroy, 52-year-old Adrian, 51-year-old Jeremy, and 47-year-old Gulliver, Page is survived by his ex-wife Joy and ex-lover Ulli.
