Here's a somewhat entertaining story about the the 'behind the scenes' look on the making of Hot Dog. Among those interviewed, Lynn Wieland (Banana Pants) and my buddies Dan Herby and Bob Legasa, all stunt skiers and former freestyle competitors and coaches. It's a somewhat raucous account of the story behind the story....and a good peek at ski-bumming in the early 80's. Somehow this movie lives on in infamy....

Some guy named Mark something told similar tales, said he used to be a freestyle coach, bumps at Squaw and worked as an extra in the movie. @Lynne Wieland would probably take the 5th hahahaha.

David Naughton. unlike Dan O'Callihan was not a nice guy. John Reiger, who was Rudi was a total class act.

He's a pepper. Wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?

I don't know any of these folks really though. Perhaps he/David was having a bad day? Who knows...

I can understand why its the unofficial oral history.

@Lynne Wieland and I had a moment to discuss the serious......yeah, the serious side of the movie. ;)
