Dead Man’s Shuttle, is a small shuttle that takes riders along the deadly curve located at Sunset Boulevard and N. Whittier Drive, known as “Dead Man’s Curve.” Riders are given a brief history on the curve and its influence upon Hollywood celebrities, Los Angeles, and popular culture, before they climb into Dead Man’s Shuttle and ride along the deadly curve. Throwing caution to the wind with each ride and playing the odds with the hope that the fury of Sunset Boulevard’s Dead Man’s Curve will not strike.
This project was staged as part of the, LA Road Concert on Sunset Blvd, which was a series of site specific art works and performances, by over 100 artists along the 24 mile stretch that is Sunset Blvd. More info on the LA Road Concerts can be found here http://www.laroadconcerts.co.cc/
