You may not recognize professional stuntwoman Judit Sziva’s face in a crowd but you are likely familiar with her work as she has appeared in blockbuster movies like Dune: Part 2 and Ballerina.
When Sziva isn’t on set taking bumps and bruises while the A-list actors relax in their comfortable trailers, she has unique hobby that combines her love of crafting and adrenaline sports.
Suffice it to say just seeing the combination of DIY and Parachute in a sentence is alone a cause for concern but somehow Sziva managed to pull it off with a jerry-rigged canopy seemingly constructed from an oversized tarp and paracord.
The homemade rig worked perfectly at first but collapsed on itself mid-descent. Thankfully Sziva was wearing a backup parachute during this test run and managed to pull it in time to make a smooth landing. Sziva has fielded tons of requests for a tutorial on how recreate her DIY parachute but not going to produce any and discourages people following in her footsteps. Incredible to see how professional stuntwoman keeps herself occupied in her free time.
