I loved this show growing up. The 1980’s had some of the best shows ever. Fall Guy, Duke’s of Hazard, Knight Rider, A-Team, Miami Vice and Airwolf were my favorite just to name a few. I also love how in any tv show like this the cars and trucks just miraculously jump up and over obstacles when they’re supposed to be driving on a flat road.
You seen the 2008 knight rider? It's better than the org other than the car changing into a truck that ws kinda stupid but the show is much better written.
Amazing how many random piles of dirt where just laid around. Amazing show although I haven’t watched it since the 80’s. Brings back very happy memories. I didn’t have the best childhood and shows like this, Airwolf, Dukes Of Hazard, Knightrider allowed me to escape. Born in 76.
Not many of the General Lee's jumps looked survivable but this old Chev just bounces and keeps going. This show was before my time but total respect to these folks.
I used to watch this show when I was a kid and never realized that they jumped this truck more than the Dukes of Hazzard & Knight Rider combined. What’s even funnier is that they jumped fences and gates that they could’ve easily drove through. Epic 80’s Shows. Thanks for the memorable upload.
Lawrence German No they most certainly didn't jump more than Dukes of Hazard. The jump truck, was a Mid engine truck, for balance. it didn't buckle and get destroyed like the Charger did, cause of the off road suspension, axle housing trusses, off road tires, etc, apples to oranges. The Dukes of Hazzard Still hold the World Record for the longest jump. Opening Credits.
Pretty sure Jack Gill from KR was part of the stunt team and he created a bungie harness that supported the stunt driver for back protection. Some of those jumps were absolutely stunning!
Had a lifted '86 Silverado back in the day with a similar paint combo and my military buddies use 2 call me The Fall guy. Sadly, no Heather Thomas riding shotgun tho! Lol
This is great trip back to my childhood. I adored this programme, and them old dukes of hazzard. At 46 I still climb in and out of the windows of my volvo
The stuntmen on Fall Guy had a fantastic safety record considering the dangerous stunts the performed. They did make it look easy, but they were anything but easy.
Dave, I read an interview several years ago on a stunt website in which Fall Guy stunt coordinator Mickey Gilbert said that - as far as doing the truck jumps were concerned - he himself was the one who performed 99 percent of these jumps. Other stuntmen were used for car stunts and human stunts. The safety record was good because Mickey Gilbert was using a bungee cord suspension system similar to the one used by the stunt driver who jumped the bus in 'Speed'. No broken spines, no damaged backs. This safety system was invented in the early 1980s.
I agree. Watch the driver, not the truck tou can see him reading the trucks movement, roll,speed etc.. Amd that was one hell of a jump in a box style long bed 4x4.
@@andrewbraverman4511 the laughable part is people like you can never reliably pick out the CG from the practical, you have little knowledge of either and an arbitrary opinion based entirely on nostalgia.
My youngest son asked me the other day what famous Hollywood vehicle would I pick if I could have one, and I instantly replied “the GMC truck from The Fall Guy”. He looked at me a little strange (he’s only 12) so I told him about it. He said ‘ why don’t you just build one then?’ Love it. This truly was my dream truck. Thanks for the great video!
Ben Schwipps id drive an old gmc that looked like that with pride and a smile on my face, my dad watched this show when he was a kid, and introduced it to me
@@tenorhowlermonkey3454 nah, got a different project going, besides, finding either one of those- and then making it real- puts me in the "spent way too much on this" pool! The project I do have, pretty much puts me there already....
Back in 1983 I stopped by my boss's home in the San Fernando Valley and saw a pick up truck painted just like a Fall Guy GMC in the neighbor's driveway. Turns out the neighbor was Mickey Gilbert the stunt coordinator of the show and the truck was mid engined. I remember him talking about getting car carriers full of GMC pick ups delivered every month.
Carroll Shelby i wonder if the trucks they used where sent to the crusher or if they where put into storage? It would be awesome to find some original screen used trucks even if they are wreaked!
It's interesting that they built the stunt truck as a mid engine, but in a way it makes sense because it makes it easier to balance the truck for the jumps.
Painted just like The Fall Guy truck with twigs & berries on the hood ? Aka The Stunt Man association logo Eagle. If you look close you can see the outline of dick & balls.
The mid engine!, was the only way to get the truck to land as flat as It did almost every shot, otherwise the truck would just dive the core support into the concrete and bend in half
The jump at 1:43 is epic!! The Fall Guy is the reason I bought my 79 Chevy 1/2 ton Stepside when I was 19 in 1989. 6 inch lift with 36 inch tires. Yes I jumped it every chance I could. Railroad tracks, sand dunes, sidewalks.
Its pretty amazing the torture that these old trucks and cars could handle back before CGI. They lasted much better than the poor dudes spine that was driving. This brings back some good memories. Thanks.
Damn I'm old . This took me way back when I was a kid. I would always love this series. I would get behind my pops k5 blazer and day dream I was colt seavers.
Wow! I watched this show as a kid and I had forgotten how big some of these jumps were. I love how you can see the axle trusses and upgraded suspension.
I'm 52 now an growing up in the 80s was pure gold ,every thing from riding ur bike to go find your friends to coming home when the streetlights came on to eat and watch shows like this til bed time ....
Between Kitt, The General Lee and the Fall guy truck their jumps are just AWESOME it's hard to pick who had the best jumps👍🏿👍🏿Man I miss the the 80's TV shows like the A-team Air wolf Simon and Simon Dallas and the list goes on and on
Yes I have the only mid engine stunt truck that was made from the show. The other trucks were normal front engine trucks.This video is all of the jumps my truck made on the show from season 2-5. I left out all the other jumps made with the front engine trucks.
@@kflash7269 Wow thats so cool, did your truck do the jump over the bus at night? think that was a mid engine truck, read that someone accidentally put too much weight in the back when the stunt men went for a coffee before the jump and it came down hard on the back end and the tail gate flew off...any chance of some vid of your truck? would love to see it now
scratch that, just watched the jump again and it's a regular truck that did that jump, one more question, would you ever jump it again? or let someone else like one of the stunt men?
These ...were the preancestors of BigFoot and all the other Stadion Monstertrucks. All that knowledge about axels, suspensions , tires, rims, hitblocks mid motor Geometrie, weight propotion went straight into them.
According to an interview with Fall Guy stunt coordinator Mickey Gilbert on a stunt website several years ago - most of these jumps were performed by him. The risk of injury when landing was greatly reduced because the stunt driver was partially suspended by a bungee cord system that was connected to his shoulders from the roll-cage. But yes - even with that safety equipment it is still not possible to have 100 percent control over a stunt - there's always an element of danger.
I remember when those trucks were at the dealership back in the days but I was lucky enough to buy a used one in good condition several years ago, I still have it.
Crazy to think how much suspension technology has evolved since this show, now a trophy/short course truck can do those jumps easy. loved that show when I was kid.
33 successfully filmed jumps. In another documentary out here about this show, a guy from Chevrolet says that's about how many trucks they sent the studio. And yes it sold a boatload of GM trucks.
Damn. Look at how stiff this car is! Nosedive in to the ground but no bend or no dent. How much work did they put in to this car?! Its absolutely amazing!
I loved All of the 80's shows Because of the Vehicles and Actual Vehicle Stunts. CGI has become so Advanced that you can't tell difference. Back in the day if it jumped or blew up, it Jumped Or Blew Up.
I loved to watch this show when I was a kid. I never knew it was a mid engine rig they were jumping but it makes total sense. That way they could have 36” of uptravel and keep the truck from nosediving off the jumps. Maybe they used the longbed bodies since the driveshaft had to be much shorter.
Boy those trussed axle really are strong, wish trucks were still built like these, the truck landed on the front end and didnt even bend the core support !! A++ like a rock baby
I remember this show well I was a senior in high school when it came out. I remember when they built the stunt truck for the show because they were destroying so many of the trucks in the jumps. I remember a magazine article I read on the building of the stunt truck, talk about highly modified, it was, but it made the truck survive most jumps relatively unharmed.
It's amazing they did all that for a TV show. They spent a lot of money on that custom designed mid engine jump truck, of which they probably had 2 or even 3. And then the hero versions driven by the actors of course. Not many shows can afford to spend budget on proper stunts anymore.
Very cool truck. Remember when I watched this as a kid. Had to walk to the tv and change the channel by hand. If u forgot u had to wait till rerun season to catch that episode

You seen the 2008 knight rider? It's better than the org other than the car changing into a truck that ws kinda stupid but the show is much better written.
@@PatrickBaptist nah no way. You cant beat the original. Thats like saying the Macgyver reboot was better than the original.....
Great car and truck choices back then
Dont forget Magnum pi...
Amazing how many random piles of dirt where just laid around.
Amazing show although I haven’t watched it since the 80’s. Brings back very happy memories.
I didn’t have the best childhood and shows like this, Airwolf, Dukes Of Hazard, Knightrider allowed me to escape. Born in 76.
I live in Hazard County and I would often drop off tons of dirt and sand for the locals to make ramps from😅🤠🤟
The crash through the power pole with transformer blowing was exceptionally cool!
Not many of the General Lee's jumps looked survivable but this old Chev just bounces and keeps going. This show was before my time but total respect to these folks.
It numerous times to get it right, most the times before the mid engine truck..the truck would fall aprt
The 80s were pure gold. As a young kid we had the BEST shows! Today kids get smartphones...so sad
Dont' forget knight rider, though the one they made in 2008 is better written though the car changing into a truck was kinda stupid.
Uh, they watch videos on smartphones now.
I’m only 15 and I’m glad my dad got me hooked on all these old shows
To be fair, as George Attard mentioned, now I can watch all the shows I grew up in the '80s with on my smartphone.
Yup
Ah, the days when their was a ramp shaped dirt pile in front of everything.
DJ Smith they did have an unusually high number of dirt piles hanging around in convenient places back then. 🤣
According to CHiPs a jump could be anything, a pickup with the gate down, a pile of leaves, an apple cart.
Lol.
No telling how many Chevy Trucks were destroyed in Fall Guy ?😉
@@richwiebe8084 😂😂

General Lee was jumped 2x per show. They went they over 275 vehicles. Fact.
Lee Majors may have been top billed in the credits, but the truck was the real star of Fall Guy.
Pretty sure Jack Gill from KR was part of the stunt team and he created a bungie harness that supported the stunt driver for back protection. Some of those jumps were absolutely stunning!
Yes he was. Jack Gill was also Bo Duke's Stunt Double as well. He did some jumps on Dukes.
You can see the reenforced springs under the differentials. Great show, awesome truck, awesome driving.
Had a lifted '86 Silverado back in the day with a similar paint combo and my military buddies use 2 call me The Fall guy. Sadly, no Heather Thomas riding shotgun tho! Lol
She was a smokeshow even by today's standards!! I love this theme song
I miss the 80s, when you could just jump over your problems.
All while not even wearing a seatbelt
Or just hire the A-team.
@@daveybass655 : IF you can find them! 😉
I prefer to bury mine
Under a pile of empty beer cans

Stunt coordinator Mickey Gilbert did most if not all of these jumps.
I agree. Watch the driver, not the truck tou can see him reading the trucks movement, roll,speed etc..
Amd that was one hell of a jump in a box style long bed 4x4.
That was the best jump in the entire series of this show.
they did a lot of great stunts back then- much better scenes then in todays cinema!
I agree. Now, it would all be done with CGI bullshit.

Well done to stunt coordinator Mickey Gilbert for performing most of these jumps.
What a thrill revisiting one of my favorite shows as a kid ! Fantastic video ! Thanks for bringing back so many great memories !
One of the best intros to a tv show ever
One of the best opening songs of the 80s!! Loved it
I liked Greatest American Hero too
In the 80s We had an obsession with jumping cars on tv. Dukes, Knight Rider, Fall guy.. lol
4:01 Not only catches air, but clips off a utility pole and takes out a transformer! Yeah!!! Now you're talkin'!!!
you are concerned about the transformer? ppl were having unprotected sex left right and center in the 80s.
Yo did the axle snap at 4:20?
The 70's and 80's were such a simpler time... when so many of life's problems could be solved by jumping a pickup or car over things!
❤️Back when stunts were _real_ , done by real _stuntmen!_ none of this CGI 💩in today’s television.❤️ One of my all time favorite TV series!👍👍

Eagle. If you look close you can see
the outline of dick & balls.
The General Lee of trucks...
Aj M. I couldn’t said it better myself! It brought tears as soon as I heard the song.
Yeah but they didn’t destroy over 300 pickups. Once they made this mid engine stunt truck, they just jumped and fixed this up.
To me, second only to the Knight Industries 2000 (KITT) from Knight Rider.
Yes sir...
The general lee was only good for 1 jump, then they paint up another one for the next episode
Some of those jumps looked really wild! Tough old truck and the stuntmen were made of steel!
I loved this show as a kid! Never new they had a mid engine truck for the show!
The mid engine!, was the only way to get the truck to land as flat as It did almost every shot, otherwise the truck would just dive the core support into the concrete and bend in half

Watching Fall Guy with Heather Thomas.... the good old days!!!!! 😁😁😁
The more I hear the song, the more I think it's actually about the truck, not the driver...
Wow! I watched this show as a kid and I had forgotten how big some of these jumps were. I love how you can see the axle trusses and upgraded suspension.
Little bit more travel, some links instead of leafs and some coilovers and bypasses and that might not have had to build a hundred of this truck lol

Loved this show!! Full Guy was the best!!!!!
😂😂👍🏻
This show made me wanna become a stuntman. I became a UA-camr. Close enough.
😆
No shit when i was a kid i wanted to be a stuntman after this show too
Yeah, same here. Became an engineer. Good enough.
Great selection of jumps !!! I could see the mid engine relocation in some of the side shots. Great work. Thanks.
engine relocation and dummy front non driven axle.
Wow, that just took me back I loved that truck, but also loved the Simon and simon truck.
These
...were the preancestors of BigFoot and all the other Stadion Monstertrucks.
All that knowledge about axels, suspensions , tires, rims, hitblocks mid motor Geometrie, weight propotion went straight into them.
Double edge sword really, those stunt drivers having balls that heavy takes extra out of truck. 80's rule.
One of the best shows of the 80s if not ever
The landing of the jump at 2:47 looks like fun. You can see the roof wrinkle.
Ouch! The driver's spine probably wrinkled too
Always loved the way the Truck Bounced after the Jump. Dislike the way it tore the truck up. Great video
Great stunts! This show and the Dukes of Hazzard is what made me want to become a stuntman.
Those stunt drivers were nuts....

Hence Lee Majors' hit song
I believe you have a typo there. It should be:
Those stunt drivers HAVE nuts.
This was one of my favorite shows as a kid. Im not a Chevy guy but this is still one of my favorite trucks.
I remember when those trucks were at the dealership back in the days but I was lucky enough to buy a used one in good condition several years ago, I still have it.
Frederick Martine
A Classic 😎👍
Man I could watch this for hours!
That one jump was brutal. 😬
Sad that truck flipped and caught fire
Great jumps and Heather Thomas! Win!
Wow, it’s almost like shocks didn’t even absorb anything back then!
Crazy to think how much suspension technology has evolved since this show, now a trophy/short course truck can do those jumps easy.
loved that show when I was kid.
I was thinking along those same lines. That old truck had solid axles and leaf springs. Those were brutal jumps for a vehicle like that!
I haven’t seen this SINCE the 80s. Childhood memories.
My God man yes.
What a throwback.
Another one of my favorites growing up 👍🏼
The Fall Guy, Knight Rider and Air Wolf.......Best childhood ever!
33 successfully filmed jumps. In another documentary out here about this show, a guy from Chevrolet says that's about how many trucks they sent the studio. And yes it sold a boatload of GM trucks.
This show was the absolute shit to me when I was young. Had the metal lunch box with matching thermos!! 80s and 90s were the absolute best
The Six Million Dollar Man kicked butt!
Damn. Look at how stiff this car is! Nosedive in to the ground but no bend or no dent. How much work did they put in to this car?! Its absolutely amazing!
its the bounce that really sells it. everybody is restoring squarebodys. one of you Rickys and Terrys needs to build this.
-What do you do for a living.?
Im a stunt man for a tv show about a stunt man who...
-Wait......What?
I watched this video when I was like 7 and I can not explain how happy I am to finally find it again
That SierraGrande GMC 2500 surely did take some beat up ....she’s a show stealer ❤️
I sure do miss great shows like this. Thanks for taking me back in time.
What I wouldnt give to be one of the stunt drivers. The fall guy, dukes, and Simon and Simon were my favorite shows.
I loved All of the 80's shows Because of the Vehicles and Actual Vehicle Stunts. CGI has become so Advanced that you can't tell difference. Back in the day if it jumped or blew up, it Jumped Or Blew Up.
Some of the best part of my childhood.
the best tv show, with no visual effects, no green cloth, no computer,, best GMC Sierra
KING OF JUMPS ! ! ! !
I'm 48 now and still want a Fall Guy Truck.
I loved to watch this show when I was a kid. I never knew it was a mid engine rig they were jumping but it makes total sense. That way they could have 36” of uptravel and keep the truck from nosediving off the jumps. Maybe they used the longbed bodies since the driveshaft had to be much shorter.
Andy Black -Also a much better weight distribution/balance. But damn, some of those had to hurt!
Lol that thing has 6” of uptravel at most. All of these jumps look like they destroyed the entire truck and a couple vertebra
i miss this show. thank you lee majors
In this series there was always a ramp on the street when you needed one.
Back when TV shows were cool. Thanks for sharing.
Im sittin here doing security on a movie set and i havent seen nothing as crazy as that. Gotta love the square body chevy
Boy those trussed axle really are strong, wish trucks were still built like these, the truck landed on the front end and didnt even bend the core support !! A++ like a rock baby
Watching those stunt drivers head bounce around upon landing never gets old
This show made me buy my 1st lifted chevy truck..1st jump I tried blew 2 shocks and i ended up in the passenger seat.tough ass trucks
I always adored teh round-eye Squarebodies...and this one the most
One my favorite shows when I was a kid I even had a fallguy lunch box
Genuinely impressive, 4 inch lift kit and some axle trussing and damn, did she hold up way better than it should
gives the general lee a run for it's money :-D
I remember this show well I was a senior in high school when it came out. I remember when they built the stunt truck for the show because they were destroying so many of the trucks in the jumps.

That truck needed to file flight plans w/ the FAA as many times as that thing was in the air.
My favorite show growing up and the reason why i never had a driver License until last year at the at age 44...
My gawddddd... I can’t imagine jumping a leaf sprung square like that !!!😦
And just think, these jumps are nothing to modern Rally Trucks. But those trucks wouldn't have existed without this one/ this show inspiring kids.
The team built an amazing stunt truck. Some of the landings were beautiful but even when it nosed over hard it didn't fold.
Very cool truck. Remember when I watched this as a kid. Had to walk to the tv and change the channel by hand. If u forgot u had to wait till rerun season to catch that episode
