  • Fast and the Furious movies push the envelope in so many different ways. With each new installment they get faster, and even more furious. But in Fast 5, they take their practical stunts. to a whole new level. Dragging an actual bank vault through the streets!

      7:05 In the inside view there is a person, but the chain is not atached to something solid so there is no risk, and the next scene where the roof is cut (it was pre-cut, that's why seats hang over the cutting height), you see a remote controlled vehicle.
      4:58 Also here, even if it had gone the worst possible way, that scene had near no risk at all, the vault was stationary and the cop cars were remote controled.

    It truly is one of the greatest action scenes in history. Not just that it was almost all practical, but that many people were in extreme danger. I can't believe they allowed extras to run around the building as the vault destroyed it. And I really cannot believe an actual person was in the cop car on the bridge and actually had to duck under the wire to avoid being decapitated. That is insanity. I've seen Fast Five probably 6 or 7 times and the sequence never gets old.
    I love the whole series. It has so many different atmosphere's and even genres. From pure street race/car culture in the beginning to cheesy 80's drug film to the higher quality heist films later on. 5 is probably the best. Followed by 6 and 7. 8 was not my favorite. It was a dip in quality and suffered greatly from Paul being gone. Looking forward to seeing how 9 turned out. It's also amazing how the series revived itself. They did well with the 1st, nothing special but enjoyable. Then 2 got pretty bad and Tokyo Drift is just awful in my opinion. Then in 4 they finally started to right the ship, perfected it in 5 and grew it from there.

      Also the one at 7 mins where he's like "not even an inch" overhyping the 180. It's not a hard move to pull out. The vault has no play on the physics as the cable isn't fully extended when the charger hits the brakes and the vault is moving in a straight line so it's just the driver having to make a simple handbrake turn at 20-40 mph to get out of the way and has more than enough room with 3 lanes to not run into the opposite wall.

    The stunt work on this movie was definitely amazing -b ut there was also a fair amount of CG involved in these shots.. for various reasons.
    They had different version of the vault for different purposes.
    Most of the times you see them pull the vault through the city it was the "drivable version" with a driver inside, looking out a small grid window. The pulling cables were much thicker and were later in postproduction painted out and replaced by the shiny cg-wires we see.
    Another version of the vault had wheels under it as it would otherwise scratch up the whole road. Those wheels were also removed in post and a section added to remove the gap.
    Sure, they crashed that vault into that building, but there were never people inside. It was a double take and composed together, adding effects.
    A lot of savety measures on set that were set up like barriers, extra cables and so on were removed later.
    So of course, many things were done "for real", but that does not mean that someone pulled a real vault thru the Streets of Rio.. oh btw, thses scenes were not filmed in Rio either.
    But all of that does not take away from the fact that the scenes were well choreographed, planned, and executed with a huge amount of amazing people. The result is an emersive action movie that is just as fun to watch as it was to make. The fact they shot it "In Camera" instead of overly using CG is why it looks so good.

      From Puerto Rico here, alot of scenes in the movie were definetely recorded there. my dad and i would ocasionally show up to the recording, usually distant as we werent allowed to go up close due to the fact we would show up uninvited but a small island has alot of people knowing eachother so word got around when and where filming was happening. We just showed up because we thought it was cool, and my father even ended up being one of the pedestrians in this scene but i don't think his apperance made the final cut (or was just simply offscreen, i wasn't there too so he could've been lying to me also)
      I also learned Puerto Rico has favela looking places when this movie was being recorded, something i never knew due to being from the main urban area (Toa Alta). Still, one of the most memorable times of my childhood.
