In a repeat of a stunt that nearly killed him 26 years ago, a daredevil has leapt from a tower of flames for charity.



Rocky Taylor, who has previously worked on the James Bond, Indiana Jones and Superman films, successfully completed the jump at London's Battersea Power Station.



In 1985 he was not so lucky. The 64-year-old stuntman broke his pelvis while filming Death Wish 3 after Taylor was forced to dive early from a burning building onto the concrete floor below.



Taylor, who suffered no injury in his latest jump, performed the stunt for the Remember A Charity In Your Will organisation.
