OPs screenshot makes me wonder where in his life he picked up this hold though. I don’t see any medical roles he’s played before. Thinking maybe he spent a good amount of time around stunt actors and their medical personnel. Seems like something that might be useful in that line of work to see if someone is actually standing on their own or not.
I could be wrong. He could’ve been specifically taught that, but seems like such an trivial thing to be taught for a single role though.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if he just found that himself while researching. He’s been known to really throw himself into content to read up about roles. When he’s passionate about something, and he usually is, he gives it his all. Dredd is a good example, Almost Human being another. I could easily see Karl pouring over a bunch of random medical stuff. Or even just seeing that he has to stop Kirk in the script and conferring with the on-site medics.
I’m still impressed with how perfectly he was cast as McCoy.
Dredd too. That fucking scowl of his made it.

I may be in love with him.
He strikes me as the type of guy who actually listens and asks questions of the on staff subject matter experts they tend to hire on sets.
