Professional stuntman and martial artist Jeddy Odiboh, popularly known as Tough Bone, has recently shared captivating behind-the-scenes moments from his breathtaking stunts in the highly acclaimed movie Oloture: The Journey.
The 5th degree black-belt master took to his Instagram account to post a behind-the-scenes video, offering fans and followers an insider’s look at the meticulous planning and execution of the stunts.

“Flipping a bus or any type of vehicle is a dangerous stunt that can lead to severe injury or death,” he explained in the video. “Don’t try this at home or anywhere.
