Emilie Sannom

Emilie Kirstine Valborg Sannom (29 September 1886 – 30 August 1931) was a Danish silent film actress and aerial acrobat.

Throwing herself into the castle moat in Nordisk Film's Hamlet (1911), she became the first stunt woman in Danish cinema.

Sannon retired from the cinema in 1923 but continued to perform on the stage, in circuses or making risky parachute jumps.

[2] After appearing on stage and perhaps taking minor parts in earlier films, in 1909 she performed in Biorama's Gøngehøvdingen (The Partisan Chieftain).

Her last film was the Italian La fanciulla dell'aria (Mistress of the Sky) directed by Alfred Lind, in which, wearing only a swimsuit, she performed daredevil stunts on a flying plane.
