Besides going down in rock history for that album cover, he was a Hollywood stuntman with hundreds of films and television shows to his credit, including "How the West Was Won," "Ice Station Zebra," "Twister" and more.

His last credit was in "The Matrix Reloaded," where he worked on the epic car chase scene for which his son, R.A. Rondell, was the stunt coordinator. Ronnie Rondell Jr. was 88-years-old.
