The not one but two bus jumps in the hey arnold movie luckily used ramps

The bus still wouldn't have reached the end so it's kinda pointless.

If only they made the gap in the road at a point where there was a downward slope. The bus making the jump at that point would be a lot more believable and not at a place where both ends of the road were at equal elevation. Anyway a great movie.

And the joint smoking security guard Fred in *The Relic*

Rip

How?

Cameraman: "Huh? Wait....wasn't this the rehearsal?"

Well, they used CG for the gap, but that's it.

No CG on those stunts, not mentioning the entire project of the movie. No where compares to the volume of today .

Okay, I’m going to need a bit more context here. You kind of buried the lead on this one, spending more time explaining why you shouldn’t attempt this yourself. Which yeah, you’re definitely right, tho I don’t think anyone really needed convincing of that either. Anyways, all of this just to ask, how exactly is this scene used to explain how fluorescent lights work? I mean maybe I’m just dumb, but I’m not really seeing the correlation between the two. I mean especially without more context of what aspect or behavior you’re specifically referring to within the scene. The act of the jump itself, the way the bus behaves while airborne, something to do with the logistics or even just the way it comes down with the bus pitched up, leading to the rear wheels touching down first or maybe even all of the above? Could also be none of the above and you’re referring to the actual real life production related to this behind the scenes vid. Anyways sorry to randomly ramble on like this, I’m just legitimately curious what the connection and or correlation between the two actually is. I mean hell, maybe I’m just way overthinking this and in reality this comment is just engagement bait. Hoping that because you mentioned such a random notion, only to completely gloss over it without any context. Never actually elaborating on how you explain the concept behind fluorescent bulbs behavior or what’s analogous about it. As I know many commenters or even more often content creators that will regularly say something controversial or intriguing, for the soul purpose of instigating engagement. Whether that be outrage or just constant comments looking for answers. In either case, I am still curious and would like to know if there is a legitimately good analogy between the two. As I’m at a bit of a loss, unable to figure out the connection.

Since it was damaged

I hate it when some complain its not realistic as in fact this never bothered me as at least movies back then were realistic with what humans could withstand as look for example how John Wick 3 ends with him falling off a building yet he somehow survives.

Very specific

It is! And from _The Relic_ too

He did the best action film of 1993 AND 1994. Sweet!

This is my kind of bus 🚌

He was rigged in a special suspension harness, dumbass.

No but he forgot his mouthpiece so bitten tongue #ow

@@michaelclentworth1283 why the name calling?

I watched it on HBO Max

@@jeidamartin5496 it's so good! I remember watching this all the time as a kid. I don't remember it being so cheesy but it's still so good!

The second one sucks bigtime

@@marioiacolucci too corney

because it was 1994 and the remote control can fail. A stuntman is much more reliable

It's also an insanely complex and costly thing for a single stunt, especially in 1993, not to mention the wireless range needed for the runup, and accuracy difficulty making it much less safe and less likely to succeed.

I'm guessing the seat has some sort of suspension/shock absorber kind of like the air ride seats in a semi truck.

They built a special seat suspended from the roof of the bus, in the center of it away from the windshield to protect him

It also looked like he was wearinh something that protected it.

Look what he's wearing around his chest, and he was sitting in a special seat.

i think they are (erroneusly) counting the front of the bus to the rump as total distance.. wich is wrong as even if the bus would had just droped dead down it would had counted as a bus lenght (probably 40feet?)

They'd still get destroyed all the same and why would we wanna jump some beautiful coaches anyway 😞

That’s why speed is an effective action film, the audience knows it would never work but it’s fun and exciting anyway. same way we know a man could never shoot webs out of his wrists and swing from building to building in New York City

You must be really fun at parties

Ever heard of "suspension of disbelief"?

We know this very well, we don't need to say much. Physically it is impossible for a bus to make this kind of jump. (apart from the other details, but anyway, it's a movie, so everything is valid). But it was quite interesting the way the scene was done and everything else, everything could go wrong, but thank God, everything turned out well. The rest was Hollywood magic, hahaha, and one of the best action scenes from one of the best action movies of all time ^.-.^ 😄

I’m watching the movie and I just saw this scene and watched this video to see if this could actually happen and your comment is exactly what I was thinking 😭😭😭

Pretty much they're worried about people now, not animals. No offense to them.
