People have read the Harry Potter books and/or watched the 8 Harry Potter movies, but there is a special movie out there that Daniel Radcliffe decided to created for his paralyzed stuntman David Holmes called: "David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived".
David Holmes got himself injured doing a stunt for the scene in Deathly Hallows Part 1, which left him paralyzed from the weights down.
The movie summary is:
The film is a coming-of-age story of stuntman David Holmes, a prodigious teenage gymnast from Essex, England, who is selected to play Daniel Radcliffe's stunt double in the first 'Harry Potter' film, when Daniel is just 11. Over the next 10 years, the two form an inextricable bond, but on the penultimate film a tragic accident on set leaves David paralyzed with a debilitating spinal injury, turning his world upside down. As Daniel and his closest stunt colleagues rally to support David and his family in their moment of need, it is David's extraordinary spirit of resilience that becomes their greatest source of strength and inspiration.

Daniel Radcliffe is exec producing with Holmes, director Dan Hartley, Sue Latimer, Sarah Spahovic, Nancy Abraham, Lisa Heller, Tina Nguyen and Poppy Dixon.

Daniel Radcliffe's team and Tom Felton shared this on social media to support the stuntman who did stunt roles for them.
David's family came to visit and to watch the movie as well.
Matthew Lewis who played the role of Neville Longbottom showed up to watch the movie and told people to watch it.

Thank you to David Holmes's hard work so we got to see the scenes in the movie that Daniel Radcliffe couldn't do himself.
