According to director George Roy Hill, during the filming of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969), a stuntman balked at some of the bicycle tricks he was asked to perform. Just then, Newman himself went rolling by, balanced on one foot on the bicycle’s seat. Hill turned to the stuntman and said, “You’re fired.”
