Template:Realworld Vincent "Vince" Paul Deadrick, also known as Vince Deadrick, Sr. (born 18 August 1932; age 91), is a stuntman, stunt actor, and stunt coordinator who appeared in several episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series and made an uncredited "cameo" appearance in an episode of Star Trek: Enterprise.

Deadrick is the father of stuntman and Enterprise stunt coordinator Vince Deadrick, Jr.. In 2004 he visited his son on the set of Star Trek: Enterprise. It was a highlight on the set because he was among the few performers (along with Joseph Ruskin and Jack Donner) who appeared on both the original series and Enterprise. Deadrick, Jr. asked his father to do a stunt in the episode being filmed and his father performed a small stunt part as an alien slave trader in "Borderland".

In his over 40 years stunt career he has doubled for stars such as Steve McQueen, Jack Warden, and Lee Majors.

Deadrick has performed in films such as The Enemy Below (1957, with Theodore Bikel, Biff Elliot and Lou Elias), Love with the Proper Stranger (1963), Dirty Harry (1971, starring Andrew Robinson), Beyond the Poseidon Adventure (1979), The Lady in Red (1979, with Louise Fletcher, Christopher Lloyd, and Dick Miller), The Beastmaster (1982), Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (1983, with stunts by Tony Cecere, Ann Chatterton, Phil Chong, Joyce McNeal, and Beth Nufer), Beverly Hills Cop (1984), Commando (1985), The Golden Child (1986), Throw Momma from the Train (1987, with Kate Mulgrew, Raye Birk, and stunts by Dana Dru Evenson and Donna Garrett), The Dead Pool (1988, with stunts by Patricia Tallman), Ghostbusters II (1989), Total Recall (1990), Broken Arrow (1996), For Better or Worse (1996, starring Jason Alexander), Lethal Weapon 4 (1998), and Bedazzled (2000, with Aaron Lustig, Rudolf Martin, Baron Jay, and stunts by Brian Avery, Eddie Braun, Shawn Crowder, Phil Culotta, Robert Herron, Pat Romano, George Wilbur, Mark Chadwick, Anita Hart, and Tom Morga).

He has also performed in television series such as Batman, The Six Million Dollar Man, The Fall Guy, Mannix, Mission: Impossible (1969, with Leonard Nimoy, Lee Meriwether, Torin Thatcher, and stunts by Dick Dial), Gunsmoke, North & South, MacGyver (1991, with John Hostetter, Clynell Jackson III, Adrian Sparks, and coordinated by his son), CSI: Miami (2004, with David Lee Smith and Edward Conna), and Numb3rs (2005, with Mel Winkler, David Figlioli, and stunt coordinated by Peewee Piemonte).
