(v) Derived from the time after the second era of Shemp with The Three Stooges; Shemp suffered a heart attack and they needed to replace him with someone that looked like him to finish shots from the sides and from behind.
- The act of replacing an actor/actress for picture shots when it is physically impossible to have the actor/actress
Using Martin Sheen's brother for over-the-shoulder shots in "Apocalypse Now!" was a stealthy example of shemping.
