Posted

Legendary stuntman, actor, and Old Tucson icon Jack N. Young died on Thursday.

He was 91 years old. Young worked as a gunfighter at Old Tucson in its early days. His friends tell us he came up with the idea to start live reenactments. 

He later moved on to open "Young Film productions", and once worked as a Clark Gables stunt double.
