I have worked in the film business for 20 years - love this channel. I have seen a lot of stunts go wrong over these past two decades, and more unplanned stuff than I can even count at this point. Best one i saw was the stunt and spfx teams were trying to do a side hit. Suv gets pulled by a cable attached to pulleys attached to the truck that was supposed to drive into it (stunt driver) well they miscalculated the length of cable - had a quick release latch on the tow cable and didn't have anchor cables to keep the suv from getting out of hand when it gets crashed into. First take the truck misses the pulled SUV and it keeps going (no driver) the quick release latch unlatches and the suv is just rolling down a residential street - nearly took out a couple of PA's and it finally stopped after crashing into a persons house.

I remember when you told the Durango story on VinWiki and it STILL makes me laugh even today. The fact you guys pretty much totalled that SUV then fixed it and brought it back to the rental companys.

Come to think about it, wasn't there a scene in the movie where a Silver Durango smashed into some cop cars?

Ejecto Seato is a Roman classic. The Duke of Hazzard s**t as Roman described it, it was just an overstretch for me but I'll accept it cus it's toward the end of the movie and I enjoyed the majority of the movie anyway.

The art of making cars fly with our modern suspensions has to be a work of art! I remember the suspension jumps used in the old days to create a Dukes of Hazard feel, that Myth Busters could never copy. Stunts have gotten to the point where the driver is not expected to live, and the fans have no idea. These fans have never driver a car or had a wreck at 60 MPH! Hitting a deer at 150 MPH is the same as hitting a power pole. Then the movie shows how the actors are loosely belted into the car, and we are not supposed to run inertia equations to determine if the driver lived...

It's a shame to know those legendary cars actually has to be destoyed for some scenes in the movie. A super rare to own in todays world. Fast&furious recent sequels is more like a joke. With planes, drones, submarines all brought to land and race against time. Even a bank vault amazingly racing with the police cars.
