Statement From the Discovery Channel

SILVER SPRING, Md., April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by the Discovery Channel:

STUNT JUNKIES is commissioned by the Discovery Channel, produced by CBS Productions, and operates under the most stringent regulations to ensure the safety of the athletes participating as well as the production crew. The network requires its producers to obtain all the necessary permits and permissions from local authorities prior to filming. No one at the network had any knowledge of Jeb Corliss's activities at the Empire State Building. We are beyond disappointed at his serious lack of judgment and his reckless behavior. As such, Mr. Corliss will not be associated with any future Discovery Networks projects including future episodes of STUNT JUNKIES.
