   New Interview with Zoe Bell about Death Proof

   Bell: So my instinct as a stuntwoman is to avoid the camera seeing [my face], because if the camera sees me then we can’t use the shot. For example, when we first started shooting that sequence in Death Proof, I had to consciously not hide my face.

   Wired.com: Really?

   -

   Bell: Quentin pulled me over one time and was like, “Zoë, I want you to watch this shot.” And he was like, “What’s wrong with this?” My response was: “Nothing, that’s fucking cool, I look like I’m going to die!” He said, “Yes, but what don’t we see?” And I was like, “I don’t know.” He said, “Your face, we only see your face once in the whole four minutes.” So my reply was, “Oh my god, I’m really good at being a stuntwoman!” [Laughs] So, I had to consciously learn to open up to the camera. Once I got past that, it was all right.

   -

   Wired.com: But I’m still curious, is Ship’s Mast something that anyone had ever done before? Is that something that stunt people do for fun?

   -

   Bell: That was definitely the madness of Quentin’s genius mind. I’m sure people have done similar things. I know I’d done similar stunts. But nothing like what Ship’s Mast was. I’m sure there were people who had done it before and then they turned into stunt people. That wouldn’t be totally shocking. But people now have definitely done it and it’s a little bit terrifying. You go on YouTube and there’s footage of people doing Ship’s Mast, and I’m like: “Oh my god, I’m going to be responsible for people dying.”
