Trisha Lane

Trisha Lane jumped off a dock milliseconds before 20 pounds of TNT exploded behind her. No problem. Lane, a stuntwoman, also drove the car that ran over the evil heartthrob character of Michael Mancini in the 1994 season finale of "Melrose Place." No sweat. No sweaty palms, either. There's really only one way to increase Lane's pulse: let her ride the angriest bronco available. "Stunt work will give you an adrenaline rush," Lane said.

A woman killed in an explosion and fire in her La Mirada home was identified Tuesday as Eleanor Peel, 66. The fire on Trisha Lane broke out just after 1 a.m. Monday, said supervising fire dispatcher Andrea Hawkins. The cause of the blast is being investigated, although natural gas or Peel's oxygen cylinder are suspected.
