In an article in Naluda Magazine talks a about the difficulties of performing stunts[7] stating “You’re ok get back up and run it again.” Obviously sometimes you are not ok, and you need to admit that. But this quote helped me be as a stuntman because we get hurt a lot and face tricky situations so when something happens, I take a breather and saying that quote calms me." In 2015 he began directing independent films such as Ellsworth[8][9] and Rumplestilskin[10]

Career
Corbell has been in the film industry for over 20 years something he talks about in Authority Magazine in depth[13] stating "My career has been full of adventure, danger, pain and learning how to constantly push myself. One story that sticks out was towards the end of my career I was doing a car stunt, something I’ve done many of times before but this time I snapped my finger on the windshield and the bone was sticking out. The worst part was getting it surgically repaired. It took 5 sessions to close the skin fully because the skin kept dying around the injury. It was so painful each time without pain medicine and using only a tourniquet." Corbell has worked as a stuntman[14] double[15] and actor[16] steadily since 2002 on major productions.[17] He also appears regularly as a celebrity guest at comic conventions[18][19]
