Stunt coordinator for Predator (also 2nd unit director), The A-Team (and 2nd unit dir), The Warriors, Rollerball, Mr. Majestyk and Diamonds are Forever. Director of Action Jackson, I Come in Peace and Stone Cold I just put the pieces together today seeing his name on the poster for I Come in Peace. I knew Predator resembled an A-Team episode too much for it to be a coincidence. I have great respect for this man. I don't know if this belongs in Action Stars seeing as how he's not an actor but I think he's contributed much to the world of Tough Guy cinema and television. www.imdb.com/name/nm0062644/

Didn't he played the leader of the Punks in The Warriors? I'm pretty sure he did.
And I Come in Peace rules.

John McTiernan talks about this guy on the Predator SE commentary track. I forget the specifics, but I recall the gist is that he thought there should be less people getting blown over sandbag walls in slow motion bicycling their legs and going "woaaaaaaah". I wouldn't be surprised if he directed a lot of the stunt sequences. You also see him hiding under a piece a piece of carpet and getting twatted on the head by a piece of debris whilst filming an explosion in one of the DVD documentaries. I'm going to call up John McTiernan and ask if he taped any of their conversations

If there's one thing the Bax man loves, it's seeing guys get thrown over the camera by an explosion or Mr.T.
