Found this picture when Scouting the internet today.  Thought I'd share.

That's a good photo to see how the riding patches sit and end above the knee. Good find!

Also confirms what we've been trying to tell folks about the height of the bund and the length of the codpiece!

Hmmm... Sadly I'm not blonde anymore, I've turned brown (and grey) over the years. He looks like he's ready to go surfing right after filming is done for the day.

That mane though! It's amazing! That should be a CRL requirement

Please No! I was able to pulled that off 30 years ago, but not today. Not sure my wife would want me to go back to that. She’s invested too much time and effort to get me where I’m at today .

I'm thinking it's the balaclava.  Since the balaclavas were part of a dickie the performer wore under everything else (yes even MORE layers) I imagine it would flare out like that when pulled down.

That's a great photo ... what's going on around his neck ? A pulled down balaclava, or a neck seal ? 

Could be a neck seal also... I know they were used. Unfortunately, not enough detail to tell 100%.

These are also shots of Larry Holt as the stunt Scout. You can see it's most likely just his balaclava. He also doesn't have the collar strap.

 

Also, check out those zip ties.

Looks like he’s wearing an unmodified racing suit collar too.

There are way more instances of an open collar in the film than there are neck seals.  Everybody calm down, we still aren't adding it to the CRL ;)

that’s funny ‘cause I’ve noticed since Jedi came out on VHS that this guy’s neck shows with his “Go for help, go!” line 


I always wondered why they didn’t use the comms in their high tech helmets to call it in, but then again where’s the drama in that .

Manoah, I choked on my morning coffee when I read your post.  That cracked me up.   Thanks for starting my day off with a good laugh.

And that's his chin there isn't it? Not a chin cup.

OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):

  • Optional: A white chin cup is present in the helmet.

We don't require it, not even for Level 2.
