David Holmes (born 1981) is a former British actor and stunt performer.
He was the stunt double for Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter in the first six films of the Harry Potter film series. Holmes was also credited as playing the role of Adrian Pucey in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001), the first of the film series, though this was an error in the credits: Pucey was actually played by Scott Fearn.
While test filming for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in January 2009, one of his stunts went wrong, injuring his spine. Although he initially hoped to return to work, it has since been reported that Holmes has been paralyzed and is now confined to a wheelchair. Holmes is credited as stuntman in The Deathly Hallows.
Despite being wheelchair bound, he has since taken up driving a specially-modified car around race tracks at 150 mph and has set up a production company, Ripple Productions, with two friends, who are also tetraplegic.
Everyone I see's
Diseased or broken
Holes in their arms
They got cocaine eyes
Self mutilation
Is self surveillance
Wanna get to heaven
You gotta die
Here she comes
Here she comes
She's crawled out of a garbage can
Here she comes
Here she comes
She's gonna waste another man
Ah sick city
Gonna be the death of me
Ah sick city
Gonna be my death, gonna be the death of me
Little Johnny Junk's
A subway pilot
He'll knife you in the head
For Chinese rock
Catch a falling spike
Ride a silver rocket
Score a body bag deal
From the Vietcong
Here she comes
Here she comes
She's crawled out of a garbage can
Here she comes
Here she comes
She's gonna waste another man
Ah sick city
Gonna be the death of me
Ah sick city
Gonna be my death, gonna be the death of me
Your meat on a hook
In your own snuff movie
Tortue loop hallucination
Nerves spliced
No innoculation
From the viral programme
There's spiders in your mouth
Shoot insecticide!
Here she comes
Here she comes
She's crawled out of a garbage can
Here she comes
Here she comes
Gonna waste another man
Ah sick city
Gonna be the death of me
Ah sick city
Gonna be my death, gonna be the death of me
