“We have seven cars falling from the parking structure,” said special effects supervisor, J.D Schwalm. “And each one of them is aiming at a motorcade here. We have to pull these cars at an exact speed, and we’re doing that using a winch on the crane… each car comes out in succession, then land on the vehicles on the road, here.”
“Obviously there’s no-one in them, because they’re about to be impaled…”
This is insane.
