Redmond slipped off the building,
He slid slowly down the side of it,
He fell onto a large pile of sand,
He got up and walked away from it.
The nine lives of Redmond Fell,
Absurd tales you can truly tell.
The car was moving at a fast pace,
It looked like it was a car chase.
Redmond leaped out of the car,
He curled into a ball and rolled beside it.
He got up and walked away from it.
The nine lives of Redmond Fell,
Ridiculous tales you can truly tell.
Redmond slipped down the mountain slope,
He did not even need a secure rope.
He kept sliding down the mud and grit,
He got up and walked away from it.
The nine lives of Redmond Fell,
Fantastic tales you can truly tell.
Redmond came out of a burning building,
One that was well and truly torched,
He was going to get really scorched.
He walked out of it without a burn,
He shook himself and walked away from it,
From the flames and the burning embers in it.
The nine lives of Redmond Fell,
Fantastic tales you can truly tell.
Now, who on earth was Redmond Fell,
A cat with nine lives or a man, can you tell?
Redmond Fell was the fictional stuntman,
The man who never lived in life,
Yet, he was a man with nine lives,
As told in this verse about his blessing or curse.
That is the tale of Redmond Fell,
Fantastic stories are they true?
It is impossible to really tell,
In the case of Redmond Fell.
Author’s Note: This poem is a tribute to all the stuntmen and stuntwomen in movies who do the most daring stunts and do not receive the recognition they deserve in life.
