Richard Ditlevsen, HOF,  AKA Ricky D has the record for being the stuntman most featured in the National Enquirer's centerfolds. Here he is on one of his gags for the National Enquirer 1987. He will set many world marks while under the employ of the #1,  world's largest print syndication. After nearly a decade he will amass many records and with little irony he will set two records that are still his today. He sold 4.2 million magazines in one week,  which is a record but he did that twice in his career. Of all his world marks, Richard is most proud of these two accomplishments today.More than you know.

What member of No Fire Technology was a racer, general contractor, banker, and worked for the National Enquirer ?

He is the Inventor of the digital media product, V-Pix a product advertised in full-page ads in Automotive News worldwide for many years.

The chairman of Global Media building one of the most reputable Ad Agencies Consulting Firms in America and the Founder of a National Television Network, ESN on Dish 230. His companies have generated millions of dollars for his clients. 

He is considered as one of the greatest stuntmen in history setting 33 world records many of which he still holds today. He also has the second longest running world record in history when in 1984 he leaped over 10 boats with a jet ski, dubbed Evil Ski-Nevel by the media. Second only by a few months to the incredibly frighting blast of over a 310 mph run on water in a hydroplane by Ken Warby. A truly admirable person to be second too when considering 85% of all who attempted that world record were killed trying. World records are not inexpensive.
