Just one day after stuntmen Ben Jenkin, Chris O’Hara, and Logan Holladay spoke with Inverse about The Fall Guy, O’Hara was given the first-ever “Stunt Designer” credit on a motion picture.

In a historic move and joint effort by SAG-AFTRA and the DGA, the decision was made to formally designate a position traditionally called “Stunt Coordinator” with something a little more concrete. This significant step has not only moved the former coordinators into something on par with that of a Set Designer or Costume Designer but also created a clear runway for the long-awaited Stunt Oscar.

For his part, it’s all in a day’s work for O’Hara.

“I'm not in it for awards or anything like that, but I am for inclusion; I am for bringing light to what we do,” he tells Inverse. “And I think it's important that the Academy does recognize us as stunt designers and we really are right up there with production designers, costume designers, all of these other people.”

This Saturday, 20 teenage-brained horses will race in the longest-existing sporting event in American history: the Kentucky Derby.

The contestants are all three years old and their teams have just one shot at winning the prestigious trophy. But for all the millions of dollars and months of nuanced training that go into the sport, racehorses remain a paradox.

Yes, thoroughbred horses are built for speed, and their cardiovascular systems go through intense training. And the horses that run the Kentucky Derby are all around three, when they’re at their physical prime, lingering juvenile mentality aside. But the alchemy of a champion is elusive. They shouldn’t be able to do what they do, one equine specialist tells Inverse.
