Ask any fan of Assassin’s Creed the first thing they when they boot up the game, and more often than not the answer is, “go to the top of the tallest building and jump off it”. The breath taking Leap of Faith has been a staple of the game series since the the beginning (the latest, Victorian London set iteration, Syndicate, lets you leap off Big Ben), and if you watch the trailer for the upcoming, Michael Fassbender starring adaption you would have seen it made the cut for the game’s jump to the big screen. But instead of the leap been done in CG, director Justin Kurzel wanted it to feel real as possible, which leads us to this amazing behind the scenes video where stuntman Damien Walters recreates the 125 feet dive in real life, pulling off one of the highest free falls preformed by a stuntman in over thirty years.
