The Santa Pod Terry Grant Stunt Academy The Man Terry Grant is a globally respected stunt car driver. With 19 World Records, its little wonder that Santa Pod and Terry Grant have teamed up. Having started riding a motor bike at the age of five Terry graduated to car driving on farms and wasteland at the grand old age of six, it wasn’t long before everybody realised that this young lad was going to be something special behind the wheel.

After casually participating in a banger race, which he just happened to win outright, Terry rocketed through the ranks of Hot Rods and various saloon racing series both here and in the US, where he flew the flag for Britain against the best of the U.S in their “Legends” Racing Series. After storming to the front of the pack, Terry's now infamous victory do-nut did little to appease the disgruntled locals and Terry was police- escorted to the State Line and asked to leave!

Fast forward to 1995 and Terry dips his toes in the pool of stunt performing by promising the producer of BBC's “Children in Need” that he could perform a TV friendly spectacle with F1 ace Johnny Herbert. The hook was the part where Terry promised to leap from the moving car, and get back in. Something no one had ever attempted before... and certainly not on live TV.

As the tapes show, the stunt went flawlessly and the rest as the cliché goes, is history. Now, an incredible 19 World Records later, Terry is widely regarded as one of the greatest performers in the business. Constantly changing both his act and cars to keep audiences flocking back for more.

Travelling all over the World, Terry has performed at some of the most prestigious events on the Global calendar. From the Race of Champions in Paris, to the London Motorshow and the TV studio of Guinness World Records in Madrid and China. Whatever the challenge, Terry gives 110% to every fan, producer and promoter to ensure that whoever's watching gets blown away with what they see.

Having worked for the cream of manufacturers including General Motors, Saab, Vauxhall, Nissan and TVR to drop but a few names, Terry often consults as stunt co-ordinator to show organisers looking to provide jaw-dropping action in a completely safe environment. 2009 finds Terry creating an impressive team of hugely experienced professionals to bring the Top Gear Live Roadshow to life.

As Santa Pod’s very own resident stunt supremo, he has been a regular fixture at the best Pod events for very many years. So don’t just watch him!. Join him!

Although Terry makes every effort to personally attend each academy day, please note that diary commitments and top secret filming days mean that he may not be instructing on the day of your booking.
