Kevin Rego
Born in Fall River, Massachusetts to immigrant parents from São Miguel in the Azores, Portugal, I was raised at the crossroads of Portuguese culture and the American dream. Portuguese was my first language; I learned English through school-and reruns of the Adam West Batman series. Drawn early to physical discipline and adrenaline, I gravitated toward extreme sports like surfing and skateboarding, spending my off-hours either skating, in the gym, or training in the dojo. Everything clicked after witnessing a live stunt show in Orlando. I packed my bags, moved to Florida, and committed to pursuing a career as a stuntman, starting where I believed the foundation was strongest: theme parks. That path led to touring internationally with Feld Entertainment and ultimately to a career spanning over 50 countries. Today, I split my time between Florida and Massachusetts while continuing to work across film, television, live events, and themed entertainment worldwide. I am the founder of K2 Second Unit Stunts-K2 standing for Kim and Kevin, in honor of my mentor Kim Kahana Sr. As I like to say: fire, wire, water, high falls-if it’s dangerous and needs to be done right, I’ll do it all.
