pretty sure this is the filming of a scene from the movie The Other Guys.

Same type of crane in this video

The building matches and everything. Excellent detective work.

For some reason the bus just makes it incredibly hilarious. It reminds me of the SAP walking into the wrong meme animation.

HOLY SHIT.... That bus, came out of no where! Thats enough internet for me today.

Very cool up-close footage of a bus, but did anyone else notice a wrecking ball hit a vehicle in the background?

[–]Tommassive 1 point2 points ago

From what i can tell the vehicle jumped out of the way at the last minute narrowly dodging the wrecking ball.

What? You mean that they don't just swing wreckingballs around in crowded, unsecured locations, especially across streets that haven't been blocked off?

[–]JackDuvallTrides 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They didn't even swing the ball -- the crane was completely still. They had restrained the ball out of frame and released it when the van was in position. Lame.

How is this fake? It's a real movie shoot.

[–]happy_otter 2 points3 points ago

If that ball was as heavy as it should be it would not have stopped swinging after it hit the car, and it would definitely NOT have started wiggling around like it did.

[–]ruinmaker 0 points1 point ago

Yes... but you haven't addressed how this isn't fake. If the ball were a wrecking ball instead of a movie prop it might have smashed right through the car sure. However, since it's a real movie prop it bounced and wiggled around.

[–]happy_otter 1 point2 points ago

Yes, well sometimes we use fake to mean staged as opposed to something that really happened IRL. Fake does not always mean "photoshopped" / CGI.

I'm just going to point out the Poe here before this gets too far into trolling territory.

[–]Treborius 0 points1 point ago

It is as heavy as it should be... For a real movie prop.

You'll catch a dope habit from a hit like that.

That's from a commercial, I think. I remember seeing something like it in my Physics class in high school.

That bus TOTALLY just photobombed that suv getting smashed. What a funny guy!

[–]Uber_Hobo 0 points1 point ago

Why does it look like the bus is moving sideways!?

[–]ActualGamerowned 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

this was a prank video, they put a catapult under the car and the ball was probably hollow.

[–]Frankstg 0 points1 point ago

It's fake. You even see the trap launching the car. It was for an ad campaign or something like that.

[–]zjbird 0 points1 point ago

Really? When I saw a boulder rolling down a mountain I pretty much called that it was going to hit the car...

[–]BOBBmmmmmm 0 points1 point ago
