A veteran stuntman who took blows for everyone from John Wayne to Sylvester Stallone, Bobby Bass could be seen getting crashed, smashed, and bashed in some of the most popular Hollywood features ever, including Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), Lethal Weapon (1987), and Scarface (1983). A Kentucky native, Bass also served as assistant director on such features as Thelma and Louise (1991), and turned up as an actor in features including Star 80 (1983) and Grosse Point Blank (1997). The stepfather to actress Bo Derek performed dangerous trickery for over 70 films, and received a Stunt Man Award in 1986. On November 7, 2001, Bass died of complications resulting from Parkinson's disease in Los Angeles, CA. He was 65.
