Larson, Gail Jensen, and David Somerville, and performed by Lee Majors.

The show's theme song, ' Unknown Stuntman', was written by Glen A.

This greatly reduced the number of trucks scrapped during the show's production.Р”Р„t the end of the series, the remaining trucks were either auctioned or given away in a contest. It had a reinforced frame and heavy duty axleР’В trusses, dual shocks all around, suspension limiting straps, lift blocks, and a steel weight box in the bed (which was loaded with up to 800Р’В lbs of lead for a jump) and a mid-mounted engineР’В that actually sat in the middle of the cab. After destroying several trucks due to the huge jumps, a custom built jump truck was built as a solution. The truck was powered by a stock 350 V8 and Turbo 350 automatic transmission. The truck usually appeared to be a long bed model, but sometimes a short bed model was used. For the remainder of the series, it almost always had the quad headlight configuration of the 1981-1987 models, with a dark brown interior. For instance, in the pilot episode the truck (a 1980 model) has two square headlights and a light tan interior. As a result, there are some inconsistencies in the episodes. As a result, it became very popular, especially with children, and numerous toy and model versions were produced.Р”Вuring the show's run, the stunts took their toll on the trucks (for example, one clip that appears in the opening credits clearly shows an axle breaking after a jump), so several different years, make (Chevy/GMC) and model trucks are used during the show's initial run. The truck was very often involved in high-speed chases and huge jumps. The vehicle was painted brown and tan two-tone it had an eagle painted on the hood with the phrase 'Fall Guy Stuntman Association' underneath.

One unusual characteristic was a secret compartment in the truck's bed, which was used to stash away villains or to hide weapons. The truck also had a custom-made chrome roll barР’В mounted with 4 off-road lights, and a custom chrome grilleР’В guard mounted with 2 off-road lights and a Warn winch. It had a 4-inch lift (Burbank Suspension seven leaf front and nine leaf rear) and 36x16.5x15 inch Dick CepekР’В Fun Country off-roadР’В tires mounted on a 15x10-inch chrome wagon style wheel. A Rounded-LineР’В 1980 GMC K-25 Wideside with the High SierraР’В equipment level package was also used. The truck Р”В¬olt's truck was a Rounded-LineР’В 1982 GMC K-2500 WidesideР’В with the Sierra GrandeР’В equipment level package.

The series is known for its frequent cameos by Hollywood celebrities and the occasional in-joke referring to Majors' previous starring role in the series The Six Million Dollar ManР’В (the pilot featured a cameo appearance by his ex-wife Farrah Fawcett). Colt's voice-over narration was dropped from the second season onward. In the course of dealing with the villains, Seavers performs a stunt similar to the one shown at the beginning of the show. His case turns out to be more complicated than it first seemed.

After the voice-over introduction, the crew is seen performing a stunt for a film or TV series when Seavers is then assigned to finding, for example, a man who has skipped bail.

This is intercut with actual Hollywood stock footage, from various eras, of dangerous movie stunts, such as an exploding plane plunging straight into the ground, or a motorcycle jumping through a flaming hoop. Typically, an episode begins with a voice-over introduction from Majors (as Seavers) explaining the precarious life of a Hollywood stuntman, and how he, Colt, is unable to make a full-time living from stunt work and must moonlight as a bounty hunter. He is accompanied by his cousin and stuntman-in-training Howie Munson (Barr), whom Colt frequently calls 'Kid', and occasionally by fellow stunt performer Jody Banks (Thomas). He uses his physical skills and knowledge of stunt effects (especially stunts involving cars or his large GMC pickup truck) to capture fugitives and criminals. Lee Majors plays Colt Seavers, a Hollywood stunt manР’В who moonlights as a bounty hunter.
