Fabio Testi!?

[grandpa_chum]

I had no idea he was in the movie until I stumbled across it on his filmography, apparantly he is a member of franks gang at the auction... another great addition to the best cast a western has seen

[titoli]

apparently? You can spot him easily!

[Groggy]

I believe he's the guy who gets shot from above the painted clock and land's on his neck during the "Transgression" scene. . .

[titoli]

At the beginning of the auction scene he's in the background, wearing a black hat, behind a bearded blonde, while the hand of the first bidder offers 2 in the foreground. he has got a full close-up before Harmonica descends the staircase.

Can anybody point to me a good software to make scans?

[titoli]

He's also the killer crawling on the tile-roofs and who attempts to shoot Fonda from the terrace above the painted clock.

Wonder if he did the stunt himself. I seem to remember having read he actually did and was the worse for it.

Yeah, he did, at least according to Mickey Knox. If you watch that scene he was supposed to fall, roll off the subroof and onto a few bags of grain.  Instead, he just crashed through the roof and landed on his neck.  Ouch.  According to Knox's interview, he did a good amount of stunt work and was actually fired from a number of films for being so bad.

everytime i see that stunt fall, i develop nervous twitches for days from this old neck injury i receive from being "whip - lashed".  redneck in a pick - up truck, lol
fabio should have got the oscar from that fall. life's not fair 

[Juan Miranda]

Ouch!  One of the "giant stagecoach" guards in GIU LA TESTA also does a flip fall from a hight and lands right on his neck, one of the most painful looking things I've seen in a western.

There is a very abrupt cut on his landing. Hope the poor guy was able to walk away from it (or even walk at all!).

I know he's easy to spot... i just never recognized him for some reason.

[KERMIT]
