- Stunt cock
A stunt cock is the term for a well-endowed penis that is used during the shooting of
pornographic films . The stunt cock is used in an extreme close up as to not identify its bearer, the goal being to deceive the viewer into thinking that the stunt cock is actually the penis of the main actor.

However, a stunt cock seldom performs dangerous acts on film. Though the term draws its name from this term, its practical application is more analogous to abody double .Industry role
Stunt cock work is a very common "workhorse" position in the pornography industry. The majority of prominent male pornographic actors have worked in this capacity at least once. Some actors work as stunt cocks specifically out of a desire for anonymity. [cite book|last=Jennings|first=David|title=Skinflicks|publisher=AuthorHouse|date=2000|pages=312|isbn=1-58721-184-X|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=3VCVm7sc5JsC&pg=PA312&dq=%22stunt+cock%22&lr=&sig=ACfU3U1QbDt5IRH2g3PwVjB1jFxmoe8XDQ|language=English] Work on a pornographic film can be very demanding, and it is often difficult for actors to perform on demand as needed. A common function of a stunt cock is to stand in for an actor who is unable to achieve erection or ejaculation, so that filming can continue on schedule.cite web|url=http://www.rawstory.com/exclusives/xero/xero4.html|title= How to shoot a 'live' adult video|last=Xero|first=Xanadu |publisher=The Raw Story|accessdate=2008-08-03] In some situations, a stunt cock might also stand in for an actor whose penis is considered too small or otherwise undesirable by the director.
