Rocketman Performance, Melbourne, Australia, 2005
Dan is a professional stunt actor and member of the Screen Actors Guild. He specialties include high falls, rappelling and precision driving!

However, Dan's greatest accomplishment to date is being one of only a handful of people to pilot a jet pack. Dan successfully completed his "Jet Pack" training in July of 2005 and performed performances throughout the world as the character "Rocketman".

Dan grew up in Valencia, California. He started his laundry list of stunt skills at age 4 when he began riding dirt bikes, shooting guns and rock climbing. He has been involved in theater and film since junior high school.

Dan has spent several years of his career performing, managing and producing live actions stunt shows around the world. Dan's outgoing personality and love of performance made him the perfect man to play Batman, Indiana Jones and a wide range of other funny and serious characters.

These years of playing various superhero's has prepared Dan for the excitement and responsibilities associated with The Rocketman. On location, Dan loves meeting the audience, sharing his Rocketbelt experiences and signing autographs.

In addition to Dan's vast stunt experience, Dan has worked as an EMT aboard ambulances running emergency 911 calls in the Los Angeles area and worked on numerous movies as a set medic.

Dan has been a licensed pyrotechnican since 1991 in California and recently obtained his special effects license in Texas. Dan has been an operator in charge of pyrotechnic displays both nationally and internationally, from yearly 4th of July fireworks shows to theatrical pyrotechnic effects for pop stars and celebrities. His attention to safety and quality are exceptional.

Dan is an accomplished rock climber, Advanced Scuba Diver and is working toward his Skydiving AFF certification and, of course, he still loves riding motorcycles and using firearms.
