Science in the Movies is a live demonstration revealing how science is used to create spectacular movie stunts and special effects. The program was developed by stunt coordinator Steve Wolf who's done projects from "Crocodile Dundee" to "America's Most Wanted" to "Hustle and Flow". The program is now the basis of science education programs for students and teachers.
