LotR: FotR LE - Hobbit Scale Doubles UPDATED

[@elbowsbuns1896]

The masks are uncanny. Also, props to the actors. It must have been so uncomfortable filming for so long in hot weather

[@xl000]

they are getting paid good money for that though.....

[@jackhughes7637]

@@xl000 Okay, but it would still be uncomfortable???

[@cloudstrifejen]

Legolas taking pictures of the prosthetic masks was priceless!

Sometimes I forget that the actors are really full-sized people.

[@ghostpiratelechuck2259]

I wouldn’t go that far.

[@XmatineeX]

Thank the world we have little people who can make a movie like this happen

[@Wendipops]

How I recognise one of the scale doubles from being an oompa loompa...!

[@thenerddirector]

yeah deep roy

[@daredfoxchick889]

@@thenerddirector actually this is Kieran Shah who is often confused with Deep Roy as they look similar.

[@EmmaKnickerbocker]

It would be so cool to meet the actors and the stunt doubles.

[@vibraphonics]

Wow - I never thought of the difficulties they'd have with getting scale doubles to act!

[@seaton125]

It must be strange looking at a smaller double of yourself in the mask.

[@234daydreamer]

With the scale doubles running around looking afraid, how convenient for that noisy airplane to fly by. Hobbits would probably be like "Wtf is that?!"

[@BaronessVonHizen]

Peter's laugh at 2:50! xD "And then, when I say mingle, you mingle! But don't cross the line, 'cause you'll lose points!" He's cute. ;) lol

[@najlaa8675]

His laugh 😂😂😂

[@roisinphelan5187]

"Martin you look just like him" ....."Lucky, Lucky man" hahahaha

[@lety04]

It's so strange to see the stunt doubles near the actors😂❤

[@ivanlourencao3259]

Wow... the level of commitment to get things well (brillantly, excellently) done in those movies... LOTR trilogy is the best, forever.

[@Blubbenn]

I almost shat my pants when I saw the heads in the box, haha

[@oo-de-loo]

3:48 “what up, *bitch”*

[@SashaSasha127]

I cracked up laughing when the mingle part started somehow 0_0

[@kenllacer]

4:34 Legolas, what do your elf eyes see?

[@lotrfan5905]

Orlando takes pictures. XD

[@TheDrugOfTheNation]

No. Deep Roy was in CATHCF and two small roles in Doctor Who. Kiran Shah was Elijah Wood's scale double.

[@angiefife2430]

some of these comments are seriously silly, okay so, 3 of them are adults. ONE of them is a kid from NZ, his name is Martin. He was 14 when this was filmed and has a spinal defect which caused him to be much smaller than everyone else his age..he is 31 now and still short as hell but not a midget or a circus freak or an Indian cripple or whatever else was said

[@GChris134]

omg it must be siffocating wearing these masks!

[@becademarques]

They are made with breathing holes so your breathing won't be affected, but the real challenge is to make the mold for them. That one is terrifying and might take over an hour to dry, depending on the material you're using.

[@Mrreowmeowmrreowmrowmeow]

What if one of them had claustrophobia?

[@becademarques]

@@Mrreowmeowmrreowmrowmeow It's not like there's a choice haha. But depending on the material used to make the mould, it can be quicker. It all depends on how much money you have available in the team. When I do it, I use gauze soaked in plaster - same thing you do if someone breaks a bone - and it takes a good while for the mould to harden.

[@okerhrh4139]

Cool job!! Respect

[@teresag3265]

The scale doubles have such high pitched voices! SO FUNNY!!!!!

[@ravenvalkyrie7725]

OMG job well done for these cute lil hobbits 👏👏👏

[@YodatheHobbit]

It great thinking about how Kiran was trained by Darth Vader.

[@Monster-gr8on]

Ok those mask are just terrifying. Thanks!

[@shan4883]

You don't want to wake up to those masks next to you :D so creepy... pretty cool how all this was done! I love how funny the cast is with eachother. Just like any normal day. "Whats up mate! Whats up bitch!" xD

[@HushtheMag]

Those masks..... The Shire must be next to Uncanny Valley.

[@sephiroth4857]

I bet you could make like a bootleg version of the Lord of the Ring using only footage from the body and stunt doubles.

[@fitzii_00]

Omg Viggo and Kiran are halarious! Anyone know the time with Viggo fishing and Kiran's curry comment XD and the red wine thing with 'I take my bishwop and take his king!'

[@roninelenion4805]

Yes! I love that video: "The Fellowship of the Cast". Who cares if it's over half an hour long?

[@fitzii_00]

Ronin Kassaiken Totally, totally. I watched the extended lotr with directors comments instead of sound or whatev, it payed off

[@roninelenion4805]

gisella89 derp I love it in that part of the video where Elijah and Dom are imitating BK. I always laugh!

[@fitzii_00]

Ronin Kassaiken XD I know... the bishwop just made me dissolve into giggles.

[@roninelenion4805]

gisella89 derp Those videos are _all_ too funny. I watch them and my mom starts wondering why I burst into giggles or smile like an idiot for ten minutes.

[@CuddlyHawk]

I have been looking ALL OVER MY BLU-RAY, EXTENDED VERSION EXTRA DVDS, BUT I HAVEN'T FOUND THIS! Where is it?!?!

do stunt doubles have double doubles?

[@myeramimclerie7869]

Is there an interview with the scale doubles anywhere?

[@isaroax]

Ohhh I though they used both at one point. I need a slap in the face omg.

[@emilbrandwyne5747]

still shameful thought

[@xl000]

Maybe s stupid question ... but if they actually got access to hobbit sized actors, why not use them instead of Wood and that mediocre actor from Lost ?

[@NichtNameee]

Umpa lumpa

[@georgia4616]

So are they children or people with dwarfism?

doubles would have been better for the ral characters.. seriously..

[@adamnelson4859]

Ridonculous

[@Lulu4Presidente]

oompa loompas?0_o

[@mountainfolks]

Why use real "hobbits" when you can discriminate and use them as doubles.

[@highgroundproductions8590]

How are there people so small yet perfectly healthy, looking like mini-adults? How is this biologically possible? Also, they could've used children.

[@MMadesen]

There are two main types of small people. Proportional ones, basically normal people, who are just small. And unproportional ones, with almost normal sizes heads, hands, and other body parts, but stunted small bodies.

[@Iheartdgd]

Lmfao that masks are creepy as fuck

[@isaroax]

OH MY GOD. I never realized they used KIDS!! Shows how genius I am. Wow

[@aswadsheikh8051]

They were midgets so

[@animelover5076]

this video is really creepy lol

They're doing whiteface! Take "The Hobbit" down! I'm a SJW and I want justice!!

[@ilovenycsomuch]

Omg This is the Creepiest Fucking Thing I've Ever Seen!!! Lol

[@Shinisoup]

Actually I think they might, some of the smallest people record breakers are from India I think. I think there's a lot of birth defects and mutation in India because of dirty water or inbreeding, I'm not sure.

[@Firstriver333]

This is so fucked up

[@Amateurstrongman]

Omg who said "what up B?"
