Fabio Testi, a renowned Italian film actor, born on August 2, 1941, in Peschiera del Garda, Italy, stands at an impressive 1.84m tall. Prior to his acting career, Testi began as a stuntman during his college years, and his most notable experience in this role was in Sergio Leone's iconic film, Once Upon a Time in the West, where he performed a daring stunt, falling from a rooftop and landing on his shoulder.
Testi's personal life is marked by a single marriage to Lola Navarro in 1979, with whom he shares three children. Unlike many of his peers, Testi deliberately chose to avoid international stardom, instead opting for a series of unconventional roles and remaining in Italy. He demonstrated his commitment to his craft by working with lesser-known directors, such as Miles Deem, who is often referred to as the "Ed Wood of Spaghetti Westerns."
In 1975, Testi was cast by acclaimed director Andrzej Żuławski in the film L'important c'est d'aimer, alongside a talented ensemble cast featuring Romy Schneider, Klaus Kinski, Jacques Dutronc, and Claude Dauphin.
