Stuntman David Holmes, known as Daniel Radcliffe's 'Harry Potter' stunt double, suffered a life-altering spinal injury on set in 2009. A documentary, 'David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived,' chronicles his accident and life. Radcliffe almost directed the documentary but asked Harry Potter crew member Dan Hartley to step in. The documentary is described as raw, heartbreaking, funny, and uplifting. Holmes finds it cathartic but cannot yet watch it. The story has gained attention and interviews with Radcliffe and Holmes have been conducted, including a special Q+A with Kate Lindsay.
