    A career stuntman is excited about making the Bay of Islands his new home. Eric Bryson recently stopped in to have a chat with Bayfm’s Lenny Benoit. Bryson has been involved in over 300 productions, as a stuntman for 16 years and then 17 years as a stunt coordinator. The Kitchener, Ontario native says he practiced taekwondo as a child and eventually got involved with boxing. Bryson  has worked along side stars like Super Dave Osborne, Tom Arnold, Jackie Chan, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ben Affleck, Bruce Willis, and so many more. Bryson has a stepson who will be a resident of Xavier House and offered to help anyway possible. He says that’s when the house director Donna Luther asked him about being part of Corner Brook Winter Carnival. Eric Bryson will host a meet and greet on February 23rd at the Corner Brook Plaza starting at 3 pm. Bryson bought a piece of land on the north shore of the Bay of Islands many years ago and says  he’s honoured to be a wannabe Newfoundlander.
