After the kind-hearted but clumsy Super Dave Osborne survives a near-fatal accident, he discovers his manager Murray Schneiderman has embezzled from him. This forces him into bankruptcy and causes him to lose his house. Super Dave decides to retire from stunt work, but ends up meeting a single mother named Sandy. When Super Dave learns that Sandy's son, Timmy needs an expensive heart surgery, Super Dave comes out of retirement to raise the money. In the process, he must face off against his arch-enemy, Gil Ruston.
