Beyond the Beast: A Stuntman's Unconventional Theory of Violence

Veteran stuntman Eric Jacobus (God of War Ragnarök, Mortal Kombat 1, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II) explores the differences between human and animal violence. Drawing from his own experience in designing violence for a living, Eric presents the ROBA Hypothesis which challenges conventional wisdom on violence, language, and what it means to be human. Many thanks to Erik Buys, Tania Checchi, David Garcia-Ramos Gallego, and the Colloquium on Violence and Religion team. The project is produced by Adam Eccleshall. Be on the lookout for Eric's forthcoming book "If These Fists Could Talk: A Stuntman’s Odyssey into Violence, Language, and Humanity" available on Amazon.
