natural action flick can be wildly entertaining , but are the stunt in them wildly far - fetched?Betway Insiderasked scientist and industry experts to review 12 popular films released between 1997 and 2018 to notice out which films pass afact - baulk — and , looter alert , very few do .
It ’s perhaps no surprisal that movie maker tend to stretch the accuracy a little , but what about the decease - defying feat that are theoretically possible ? AsceneinSkyscraper(2018 ) where Will Sawyer ( played by The Rock ) climbs up a Grus , runs down the subdivision , and then leaps to the ledge of a nearby building is implausible but not insufferable . The fact that Sawyer has a prosthetic leg complicates matters a small , but NHS occupational healer Beth Williams tells Betway she does n’t think it would have affected his jump . The more unrealistic element , she notes , is the part where he endure across the crane “ because of how carefully he ’d have to place his feet . ”
as well , a scene inFast & Furious 7(2015 ) where Dominic Toretto and Brian O’Conner drive off of one skyscraper and land on another “ has practicable character , ” grant to stuntwoman Alice Ford . “ If the buildings were close enough together it is possible that the motorcar could make it from one to the other , ” she enunciate .
As for the altogether unrealistic scenes , count the part inIndiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull(2008 ) where the titular hero survive a nuclear blast by experience inside a lead - lined electric refrigerator . Not only is the material probably not strong enough to withstand the radiation therapy , but as physics academic James Beaumont put it , “ The military unit exerted on Indy and the electric refrigerator is just unsure of that required to send him to the moon . It ’s highly unlikely that Indy would make it being catapulted into the air , never mind set ashore safely on the ground ! ” So there you have it — Indiana Jones should have died long ago .
