The Boy Who Lived is an inspiring and brutally honest memoir by David Holmes, stunt double for Daniel Radcliffe in the Harry Potter films. As the first person to play Quidditch on screen and perform some of the most iconic stunts in the Wizarding World, Holmes’s life changed dramatically in 2009 during the filming of Deathly Hallows: Part 1 when a stunt gone wrong broke his neck, leaving him paralyzed from the chest down. This memoir chronicles his life before and after the accident, detailing his journey from a talented gymnast and Hollywood stuntman to facing paralytic injury with vulnerability, courage, and optimism. Holmes shares behind-the-scenes stories from the Harry Potter set, his struggles with addiction, mental health, and his ongoing adaptation to a new reality. The foreword by Daniel Radcliffe adds a personal touch from the lead actor he worked alongside.
