Actually, stunt men and women were used in the initial scene where the car crashes into the balsa wood building. Some were even injured. The other crashes were, indeed, "dummies".
Only love, pads the film
You are correct on the injury of one of the stunt man. They did use dummies for the scene where the train topples off the track and lands upside down.
The scene where the train crashes through the station did use several stunt people. Watch carefully in slow motion where the one man is tossed from the train and hits the pavement below. He was supposed to hit some balsa wood but overshot it and hit the pavement, legitimately breaking his arm.
so? they used some dummies. Still a very good movie.
shareI luv it, some stunt where a guy breaks his arm and we have a troll complaining dummies were used. Jeez....why don't you go out and become a stuntman for us then.
I watched that scene thinking holy crap that dude had to have gotten hurt. He's prepared to launch off and he really goes flying far.
