Allen Robinson is a stuntman, stunt coordinator
 
                 “When the end credits role, will you have lived life to the fullest?”  -- AR


Living life to the fullest he has done.  He has over 175 feature films, television and commercial credits.  Allen has had the pleasure of working with some of Hollywood’s greatest actors, writers, directors and producers.

He is a two-time SAG Award nominee, as well as Taurus World Stunt award Nominee and has been indoctrinated  into the Hollywood Stuntmen’s Hall of Fame in 2016.   Allen appreciates recognition from his peers and yet he is most grateful to be able to thrive in an industry profession that he has enjoyed for so long.

Starting in the entertainment industry in 1985 with live shows, Allen Robinson has worked in productions across the globe and done it all from crashing cars, motorcycle stunts, fireburns, fights, high falls, and has even performed a record bungee jump from a hot air balloon and flown a rocket belt.  

His creativity, safe work practices, attention to detail and well-proven track record garner him respect in the business of Film and Television.

One of the first big feature films in Allen’s career turned out to be a forever classic and the first of many films where he stunt-doubled Tom Hanks.  In Forrest Gump, you’ve seen Allen run from a pickup truck, jump off a shrimp boat and get shot “in the Buh-tocks.”  More recently, Allen doubled Tom as a ship captain in Greyhound.

He has doubled other notable actors such as Clint Eastwood, Anthony Perkins, Timothy Olyphant (“Justified”), Tommy Flanagan (“Sons of Anarchy”) and Jim Carrey, just to name a few.

When coordinating feature films like State of Play, Get Smart, Blades of Glory, Poseidon, Memoirs of a Geisha and Polar Express, Allen assembles and manages a talented team of stunt professionals that bring a most realistic look to the production. As coordinator, he also supports actors to manage fear as they work through action scenes.

Allen Robinson is often the go-to guy when people all over the world need guidance through a risky sport like skydiving, hot air ballooning, bungee jumping, rappelling and zip line design.  He is a professional skydiver and parachute-rigger and has a pilot rating for flying hot air balloons.

Allen also shares his stories and techniques to change how we interpret fear in our lives though speaking to large and small groups.

When not filming or speaking, Allen volunteers as a Flood and Swift Water Rescue Technician with TEXSAR (Texas Search and Rescue) and is a volunteer firefighter.  He calls home his “slice of heaven’ in the Hill Country near Austin, Texas with his wife, dogs and horses.
