Help identifying a 1980s TV series

Resolved

I'm trying to identify a 1980s or early 1990s TV series. It featured a lot of car stunts and Remy Julienne was a regular contributer. He peformed the "Dangerous Crossroads" stunt on this series. http://agency.incrediblefeatures.com/event/en/1/110/28-02-1991/MOTORCYCLE,+CAR,+PLANE+PYRAMID+JUMP Others I remember (not by Julienne) were a motorcyle jumping a train lengthways as it came towards the rider; the train crashed through the ramp. The same rider jumped two semis driving nose to tail - there was a ramp on the tail of the second semi and he jumped both lemgthways. There was also a jump of a truck over a canyon. This truck looked like a cement mixer, but I think the mixer part might have been a jet engine. Thanks! --TrogWoolley (talk) 20:32, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

You can see all of Rémy Julienne's credits listed here: Rémy Julienne. Maybe that will help. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 03:01, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Looking at the photos you linked... The woman in the red beret is Anna Lisia (I'm not sure how her name is spelled). I remember seeing that during Desert Storm, so that would be 1991. The location of the stunt was France. I remember that clearly as well. If anyone knows how to spell Anna Lisia's name, it should be possible to work out which show Remi Julienne and Anna Lisia were on in 1991. 209.149.113.4 (talk) 19:47, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

It appears to be The World's Greatest Stunts III (1991), which lists Ana-Alicia and the Remy Julienne stunt team as part of the cast and includes "a simultaneous triple vault involving an airplane, car and motorcycle". Clarityfiend (talk) 01:23, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Yes that certainly looks like it thank you. IMDB gives very little detail on these programs. I remember watching them in Australia pre 1993 (when I left) so you've cracked it! --TrogWoolley (talk) 17:36, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

You're welcome. Luckily, nobody got julienned in that stunt. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:47, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Do any of you have suggestions for historical figures who could be characters in my book series?

We don't do this

Hi, it`s me again just wondering if any of you had suggestions for historical figures that could be characters in my book series. Which is set in the 1960`s and is like the league of extraordinary gentlemen only with historical figures instead of fictional characters. Many i`m looking for six historical figures to be part of the justice league type organization and one notorious historical figure of the 60`s to be the villian. THANKS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.12.226.211 (talk) 21:20, 6 July 2016 (UTC) Deleted duplicate Rojomoke (talk) 21:27, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
