LIGHTWEIGHT DRY HIRE STUNT MANIKINS FOR FILM, TV & TRAINING

Lightweight Stunt Action Manikin for hire

Lightweight Dry Hire Stunt Manikins

Our lightweight Dry Hire Bodies provide a practical, realistic alternative to traditional foam-and-wire stunt dummies.

Fully articulated, poseable and easy to handle, they are designed for productions, training providers and specialist organisations that require a convincing human form without the additional detail or on-set support provided with our professional Stunt Action Manikins.

Their lightweight modular construction makes them particularly useful when a manikin needs to be carried, dressed, positioned, transported or used repeatedly during filming, rehearsals, training exercises and demonstrations.

What a Dry Hire Manikins Be Used For?

Dry Hire Bodies can be used for a wide range of film, television, training and simulation requirements, including:

Vehicle passengers and static vehicle occupants
Body representation for film and television
Rehearsals and stunt planning
MIPS and rescue training
Evacuation and casualty-handling exercises
Thermal-imaging and search exercises
Difficult-access locations
Situations requiring a lightweight human form
Static displays, demonstrations and installations

Every requirement is different, so we will always ask how and where the manikin will be used before confirming suitability.

Lightweight, Articulated and Poseable

Unlike basic foam-and-wire stunt dummies, our Dry Hire Bodies use the exclusive modular body design developed by Stunt Action Manikins (S.A.M.) Ltd.

The articulated joints allow the manikins to be positioned in natural human poses, helping them sit, lie or occupy a vehicle more convincingly than a rigid dummy. Their lightweight construction makes dressing, handling and repositioning easier, particularly when repeated takes or training scenarios are required.

The bodies can be dressed in ordinary clothing appropriate to the scene or exercise. Please speak to us in advance if you require a particular body size, weight configuration, head or level of finish.

How Dry Hire's Differ from Our Professional Manikins

Dry Hire Bodies are intended for situations where lightweight handling, articulation and general body representation are more important than close-up facial realism.

If you are unsure which option is right for your production or exercise, tell us what the manikin needs to do, how closely it will be filmed or observed, and whether it will experience an impact, fall, collision, water or other specialist action. We can then recommend the most suitable option.
