Morphology
The noun phrase is transparently compositional: 'stunt' denotes a risky, attention‑seeking act and 'daring' simply qualifies it as bold or courageous. An average B1 learner who knows both words can derive the meaning without prior exposure, since adjective + noun modification is a standard, cross‑linguistic pattern.
Etymology
The phrase daring stunt comes from performers who did dangerous acts to get attention. A stunt is a planned trick and daring means brave, so the phrase now means a bold, risky action often done 'to impress' or for entertainment.
