13 Black Cats
Group of stunt performers
The 13 Black Cats, also known as the 13 Flying Black Cats or simply the Black Cats, was a 1920s group of Los Angeles–based performers who would do stunts, primarily using airplanes and also including motorcycles and automobiles, for a set price.[1][2][3] Examples included upside-down flying for $100 and blowing up an airplane in mid-air for $1500.[2] They performed at airshows and in movies and were featured in newsreels of the era.[1][4][5] The group's advertising used the tagline "If a Black Cat can't do it—It can't be done."[2]
