On Episode 142 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, the second
part of the three-part series remembering Vision Quest talks with
Frank Jasper, the actor who played the role of Brian Shute.
Vision Quest, originally a book by Terry Davis written in 1979, was
released in theaters on February 15, 1985. This series honors the
30-year anniversary of the movie by talking to some of the notable
names behind the film and the story itself.
Jasper, currently a holistic medicine professional in Santa Monica,
California, made a re-appearance to the wrestling world a few years
back when he was highlighted at the annual Beat The Streets Battle
on Broadway. Japser talks about what he's doing now and some of the
things he remembers about shooting the role. Japser was a high
school wrestler and was an athletic trainer at Eastern Washington
University when he was encouraged to audition for a role of a
wrestler -- he never thought it would be as iconic as it's
become.
