Patrick Stephens, well known in the motorcycle tricks circle as ‘Hucklebuck,’ is slated to do a commercial for Verizon Yellow Pages.
While the commercial is still under production, he does ‘appear’ in a video to help launch a keynote speech for Verizon Yellow Pages. Patrick does some really cool stunts on a specially designed motorcycle (unfortunately you never see Patrick’s face since he’s working as a stunt double).
There is also a movie in the works that Patrick Stephens stars in, and more info will be available once the movie goes into production.
