3. I live in New Zealand, how do I break into the film/TV industry as a stunt person?
In New Zealand there is currently no legal requirement for a stunt person to have specific skills, but to join the NZ Stunt Guild you must pass certain high levels in four or more areas out of fighting, horses, motorcycles, gymnastics,  cars, rock climbing, swimming, high diving, sub aqua, white water, and parachuting. Realistically, any untested, new stunt talent would not be hired by reputable directors or producers. I urge anybody in New Zealand with an interest in becoming a stuntperson to gain the necessary qualifications and join the Guild. Full details are at the NZ Stunt Guild website.
