Which stunts did the actors perform themselves?

Many actors, also the Bond actors, say they like to do their own stunts. Do you know of any stunts in the Bond movies that were performed by the actors and not by stuntmen?

I belive the jump onto the bus in Sienna (QoS) was done by Craig.

    Lazenby tried to do his own stunts during the skiing scenes and it cost him dearly. he ended up injuring his arm

    Dalton supposedly did almost all of the stunts seen in the PTS of TLD and put the fear of God into the film crew.

    Also I heard Sir Rog. done almost all his own stunts in AVTAK...oh no wait that's not right. :))
    ....and the best he ever managed was a sermon on the mount.

    I belive he crossed a room in one scene without using a stunt-double ... :))

    Na I think that's just a rumour :)) , I'm get to see a full scene without him being replaced by a stunt double unnecessarily

    Dis Connery perform any of his stunts? I think he would be able to if he wanted.

    I think most Bond actors did plenty of action scenes and physical acting. Although
    I do think Connery and Moore left plenty for the stunt team, as they are " old school "
    actors. :))

    After making so much fun of Roger Moore, I have to make up for it a little bit. I belive he learnt to breathe the air out of the valve of the tire and did the underwater scene himself..

    I'll make up for it too. He was driving the double decker bus & speed boat for the majority of scenes in LALD

    I watched the extras on SF, (see my dvd extras thread) and was supprised at the stunts DC did ,not that he is not capable
    far from it, its I just thought the insurance company wouldn't have allowed it
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    Hardy vanishes from Harry Potter... because it's too expensive to insure him at 85, an old story but shows
    how insurance has become a huge issue. Of course these days they can just CGI an actors face on to the
    stunt man. :))
