In the show, Dunn and Jessica Chobot worked with experts, specialists and prop masters to re-create stunts seen in films, TV shows and video games to see whether they could work in the “real” world, the Washington Post reported.

The remaining episodes of the G4 Proving Ground are “dedicated to pop culture icons” such as the Goonies, Harry Potter and “Star Wars,” the network said.
