- Known for The Girl with the Needle (2024) and Copenhagen Cowboy (2022) Per Odin Thiim Thim (his full name) is a 6'2" Danish polymath/"renaissance man" who bridges the gap between elite technical expertise and high-status screen presence. With a background as a PhD in Medicine, a Special Forces Officer, years in high-level politics, and a Danish Astronaut candidate, he brings a rare, lived-in authority to complex roles-from clinical precision to tactical command. Per has full Scandinavian/viking heritage. After working with two Palm d'Or/Oscar winning/nominated directors in a row, he was recently tapped for a major upcoming production by an Academy Award-winning director. Per is currently expanding his footprint into the US and UK markets.

- Has academic degrees and university education in biochemistry, chemistry, biotechnology, medicine, game design, Artificial Neural Network, evolutionary robotics, Bio-business, E-business and holds over 20 Awards from this, and his work in cures for Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinsons and Alzheimers.
- For his part in "Lotto Tvillingerne" (Lotto Twins), Per had to be shaven bald, and get up at 3 a.m. for 4 hours of makeup. In most scenes he was tied closely to his co-actor with a tight corset, and Per had to carry the shorter 70 kilo actor with his back. On top of this strain Pers back was damaged in an accident a few years earlier, so physical therapy was administered to his back each night. In the same production Per was bitten by a race horse and had to run on a sprained foot. He was on crutches between takes. A camera man broke his arm during shooting of the race boat scene, where a camera boat hit the race boat with the actors.
- Has "cheated death" many times, including but not limited to: 3 times revived as a child before the age of 7. Around the age of 10 he almost drowned in a 12" (4 meter) deep well with liquid manure, and had to pull himself up by nettles and thorn-bushes. Was narrowly missed by a speeding tank during a military exercise. Was unconscious in -21 degrees Celcius (minus 6 F) after an accident, but luckily woke up long enough to get inside before passing out again for 17 hours. He was very close to death from Cholera in a jungle-hospital on Xmas between Thailand and Laos. And he was one of the several dozens of people who got poisoned at Copenhell in 2023, where mixtures of drugs had been put into drinks. He flat-lined briefly in the hospital and was 33 degrees Celcius.
- Is biological father of more than 50 children.
- Is former commando platoon leader with 8 years of experience in the army including anti-terrorism.
- Funny how the Danish saying goes "don't sell the skin until you shot the bear". It makes sense not to spend money you haven't earned yet, or plan from a job you still didn't get, etc. But it would probably be better for the bear not to shoot it, until you know there is a buyer for the skin.
