Todd Jones has crashed into walls, been punched in the face, flown through the air, tumbled down stairs, and fallen off high buildings, numerous times--willingly. He is a professional stuntman for movies and television shows. Todd also is a strongman: among other things, he holds a Guinness World Record for "hearting" horseshoes (bending steel with his hands). Think all of this sounds almost impossible? Todd says he's not superhuman--he has simply worked hard and not given up: the secret to his success is perseverance.
