A couple years after I saw this, that is what really stands out in my mind, still. The rest of the movie is hazy, but the look of that scene is etched into my memory.

Just rewatched this, and that was my thought exacty - I have to watch it again to try to work out how they did it.
The whole movie was brilliant.
Let me know if you figure it out! 😃

Uh, a helicopter-cam I would imagine.

As per the YouTube link upthread, it was that, then a crane, then handheld--with a hefty dose of CGI.

I suspected CGI but it was very well done. I had a hard time seeing where it went from reality to CGI.

I can't tell at all, even looking for it.

They had to merge the helicopter footage into the handheld sequence. That's what really impressed me.
