Found this on the net about the kids doing most of their own stunts:
The Boudelaire kids find themselves in many precarious situations thanks to Count Olaf, including stuck in a car on train tracks and dangling from a house hanging off a cliff. Browning said she and costar Liam Aiken did most of their own stunts.
“There wasn’t anything too extreme. It was really not too much. We didn’t actually jump from one half of the house to the other. We couldn’t do that, but there was a lot of stuff where we’re on the house with harnesses and it was on hydraulics and it was moving around. So yeah, most of the stuff was up. There were a couple things we didn’t do. I think the jump was probably all that they wouldn’t let us do. The only other time there were doubles was just like we were far away and you couldn’t tell it was us, they would use just a photo double because we were working all the time. So I guess they’d use the photo doubles in wide shots so we could get some school work in. But no, really we pretty much did everything.”
