An extremely uncommon piece of behind-the-scenes footage that shows Tobi Bakre’s stunt double falling from the third mainland bridge during the filming of Jade Osiberu’s Brotherhood has caused many people to be frightened.
Director Tough, a Nigerian stuntman, posted the video on his Instagram account and explained how he had to act as a stunt double for Tobi Bakre, a former housemate on Big Brother Naija. Director Tough is also an actress.
It would appear that the performance of Bakre’s character required him to dive into the lagoon after jumping off the third mainland bridge. This was done in an effort to make the action more convincing.
In the video that was posted, Tough had to go through some rigorous workouts and put on a full face of makeup in order to look exactly like Tobi Bakre’s persona.
As the members of the team watched in complete disbelief, he then changed into his costume and dove into the lagoon. The stuntman attempted to swim to shore after landing in the lagoon, but he was eventually hauled into a boat for safety. When asked about it, Director Tough shared the tape and stated that it was a terrifying time for him. Watch the video down below to see some responses:
