Action star Matt Damon has attacked actors that brag about the stunts they do.

The Bourne Supremacy star points out that no director would allow their star to do anything risky - for fear of losing them for the rest of the film.

And Matt is tired of listening to other A-listers saying they are risking all in the name of art, insisting that all the work that involves any real risk is invariably left to professional stuntmen.

"It's so f***ing lame," Damon complained, adding: "I did a bunch of stunts but they were safe. They're never going to ask you to do something that's not safe."
