On December 9, 2007 there was the founding meeting of the eight stuntmen under the leadership of René Lay, who had three years of preparation. Almost a year later, on September 2, 2008, the Federal Association of German Stunt People was registered. V. in the Berlin-Charlottenburg register of associations.
