How a Stuntman Became a Real-Life Ninja

Ever get your ass kicked by a superhero? Kevin Cassidy has — multiple times. Cassidy is a legendary stuntman whose rough-and-tumble work can be seen in Black Panther, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Captain America: Civil War and many, many other flicks. After 18 years in the movie biz, Cassidy traded crashing through plate glass windows for another potentially bruising line of work: running his own business. Specifically, he owns and operates a Ninja Nation obstacle course arena for kids and adults in Huntersville, North Carolina. Listen in to hear his incredible career journey, the fulfillment he's found in running a business that gets kids' faces out of digital devices, and find out if it actually hurts to get hit by a speeding car in a movie. (Spoiler alert: it does.)

The Struggle Climbing Show's Ryan Devlin

How do you get to the top? Grab some rock and start pulling.

Whether or not you enjoy the fight against gravity, as Ryan likes to say, many of the principles these athletes share can be applied to almost any business or creative endeavor. Sure, if you lose grip of your business, you’re not left dangling off the side of a cliff from a rope — but it can certainly feel like that sometimes. An expert climber himself, Ryan is able to pull incredible tactics for overcoming obstacles and regaining your footing when you’re feeling like it is game over. Ryan’s career has spanned life as an actor to co-founding the social impact brand This Saves Lives with Kristen Bell, Ravi Patel and Todd Grinnell.
