Matt Mingay started stunt riding in the 90s, much to the confusion of the family, who thought he should get a real job.
The pursuit of making a motorcycle do things it was never meant to do, didn't seem like a sensible career choice.
Until of course, the producers of this little franchise called Mission: Impossible came to Australia looking for a stunt double for Tom Cruise.
In what became a life changing experience, Matt's life was catapulted into the world of stunt riding and entertainment.
None of it has come easy and to say that it's been a bumpy road is an understatement of the century.
Despite near life ending injuries and setbacks, Matt has persevered in way that is almost superhuman. This is a very special conversation with a man who has demonstrated what can be achieved with the most phenomenal belief and relentless work ethic.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
