I don't respect any action star that doesn't do their own stunts, or at least most.

    I'm very much the opposite here. Doing your own stunts is dangerous and often just not very smart.

    There are people who have trained for yesrs to do stunts on movies safely, let them have the job and get paid.

    Not to sound crass but if a stunt guy gets injured then he gets medical care and they keep going. If the lead actor gets injured the entire crew is out of a job and all of the hard working film set just doesnt get paid until that actor is able to film again.
