From Martin Body
"I worked with Ivor Beddoes on Superman II. He was mostly known as a storyboard artist but did glass paintings from time to time. Ivor had been trained as a dancer and was a master of the 'trick fall'. At film premieres and such events he delighted in apparently crashing full length to the floor and getting up laughing when shocked bystanders rushed to help him."
