19. Grace Kelly Does Her Own Stunts - To Catch A Thief
Grace Kelly was not given a stunt double for her driving scenes in To Catch a Thief, including during the high-speed chase. She was not a particularly confident driver either, putting her co-star Cary Grant on edge.
Tragically, Grace Kelly would be killed at age 52 in an automobile accident in Monaco, allegedly on the same road as her famous chase scene from To Catch a Thief. The official story is that she lost control of the car after suffering a stroke while at the wheel, although some believe her daughter was driving the car recklessly and lost control.
