History

Scott May’s Daredevil Stunt show has been touring in the UK since 1991 and thrills thousands of people, of all age groups, in a touring season between March and November.

It all started with Scott’s motorcycle stunts being performed to raise money for local charities.

After years of hard work, passion and dedication, Scott’s local fundraising events have turned into the world’s largest independent touring stunt show, providing fantastic and affordable entertainment to an ever growing loyal fan base.

What originally started out as a very expensive hobby has become a well established, successful business venture.
