Vinnie Jones certainly lived up to his hard man image in his new movie, "Hell Ride," when he agreed to be set alight in his final scene. The film was written and directed by Larry Bishop.
"They were talking about who they were going to set on fire - we never had stunt men or anything like that - they were basically talking about one of the executive producers doing it," explains Jones. "So I went 'look, I'll do it' and they went 'what?' I said 'Larry I'll do this for you' and Larry says 'Vin, I wouldn't do this for me'."
But Vinnie, who plays Billy Wings in the film, was determined to go ahead with the scene. "If my manager, agent or insurance people knew, they wouldn't have let us do it, so I said 'well don't say nothing, nice and quiet," he explains.
"Went out there, filmed it, they set light to me. Then they said 'we've got to do it again'. The first one he lit, throws the lighter down and the lighter goes out and hits me straight in the nuts! We had three goes at it."
