How this Albanian became a stuntman in Switzerland

Rinhard Lleshaj (40) came to Switzerland from Albania as a baby and was fascinated by the film world even as a child. He finally turned this passion into a profession. Today he is a successful stuntman, as reported by “Albora”, a news site for the Albanian-speaking diaspora in Switzerland.

Lleshaj was a guest on the “Fol Shqip Show”, an Albanian TV show, and told there how he became a stuntman. “I’ve been interested in films since I was little. In the Swiss village where I lived, there was an electronics store where films cost 20 francs,” he says on the show. And whenever he had enough money, he would go into the shop and get a film, whatever it was.
