Stuntman breaks record to encourage writing a will

The UK's oldest stuntman has performed a record-breaking feat to raise awareness of the importance of remembering charities when making a will.
 
64-year-old Rocky Taylor, who has worked on almost every James Bond film, smashed through the largest ever sheet of breakaway glass in a car at the O2 Arena last month, the Elmbridge Guardian has reported.
 
He is currently performing a series of stunts to raise awareness for Remember A Charity and the difference that making a will can have on people's lives.
 
The organisation's director, Rob Cope, said that the events will draw attention to this vital and often forgotten form of income for charities.

He said: "Rocky is the perfect ambassador for us as no-one knows the importance of writing a will more than a stuntman who puts their life on the line every day."
 
Among the celebrities backing the Remember A Charity campaign are Dame Judi Dench, Dame Vera Lynn, Sir Michael Parkinson, Richard Wilson and David Dimbleby.
