STUNT

What stunt means

A deliberately difficult or dangerous feat performed for entertainment or to attract attention, or to hinder the normal growth or development of something.

Where the word comes from

Stunt likely comes from Old English "stunt," meaning to check the growth or development of something, possibly related to Old Norse "stuttr" (short). The sense shifted from "to dwarf or hinder" to "a daring feat or trick" in the early 1900s, probably influenced by the idea of something deliberately restricted or shortened in scope—like a bold, contained performance.
