Camera Diaz is known for handling many of her own stunts but she also knows her limits. While Diaz and Tom Cruise performed select motorbike chase scenes with each other while filming “Knight and Day,” she also walked away from one intense scene that was left to her stunt double, Kimberly Shannon Murphy.

Cruise and Diaz have openly talked about spending weeks preparing to film sequences that included a chase scene involving bulls. When it came to the more acrobatic moves, Diaz and Cruise, both known for doing their own stunt work, decided to leave it to the pros for one wild scene. The photo above includes Murphy, on the left, and it’s pretty easy to see why Diaz decided not to film that scene on her own.
