Well, the mini-series, not the actual unit: He was pretty cool!. He said that they actually had to go through 2 weeks of jump school and be trained under CAPT Dale Dye, USMC for the show. He did two static jumps from the tower and some work during filming in Switzerland too. Really interesting. v6, boNes

Nice, very much liked him in BoB and The Walking Dead.

I tried to get a reaction out of him by saying. "I can't believe they had Neegan kill off Abraham!!" and he didn't bat an eyelid. He just said, "[Sierra] happens."
Haha.

Heh, good work, he looks like a pretty big guy, shame he didn't fall for the Neegan quip :0)
Nice pic by the way.
That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead? Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick. Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake. No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.
