Up to then you would see people get up and leave as soon as a movie ended but here it seemed people were frozen in their seats, still processing what they had just seen or trying to recover from the experience.

The three bits I love the most from this scene 1. The fact the Harley survived that drop off the ledge, that shows that was a high quality bike he was riding. 2. The way Arnie tries to get in front of thE lorry but the t1000 is blocking him, he sees an opening doesn't hesitate and gets straight through. 3. single handedly lifting john off the dirt bike and planting him in front so he could protect him. Class film that can never be remade.

The bike was suspended on a zip line like mechanism using airplane wire, so when it hit the ground the bike bounced like it only weighed about 90 pounds, the spark effect was added to show how heavy the terminator was, giving some mass to the being riding it

[@Rutherford_Inchworm_III]

A 90s Harley Fatboy never would have survived that drop in one piece. I own one, it's got a heavy engine, a low profile and no suspension to speak of - a jump from that height would break it in half instantly. I believe in the movie they put it on a steel cable so it actually fell gently enough to LOOK like a hard impact.

Movies like Fast and the Furious and Gone in 60 Seconds (the remake) and other modern films famous for car chase scenes have some of the best cars involved in their scenes and they can be great.

[@TheBeastUnleashed87]

A couple of behind-the-scenes facts about this clip: 1. In Terminator 2's director's commentary, James Cameron described how Arnold Schwarzenegger had to practice the shotgun twirling move so many times that the skin on his fingers kept tearing. And to make matters worse, he had to do the stunt without gloves. During one day of filming, Schwarzenegger accidentally picked up the wrong prop shotgun. As he went to spin it like normal, the smaller lever caught his fingers, and the weight of the gun falling back almost broke his hand. While it caused a great deal of pain, Schwarzenegger luckily did not sustain any long-term damage, which easily would've halted production. He eventually managed to get the perfect take, although who knows how long it took to perfect. Not only did Schwarzenegger have to perfect the twirl, but he also had to keep a straight face throughout the pain, all while riding a motorcycle. 2. Since Edward Furlong, the actor who played John Connor, sat on the back of the bike, he was hit over and over by Schwarzenegger's gun twirl, almost knocking the young actor out.
