In the thriller Die Hard, actor Alan Rickman’s character falls backward off a building, and his facial expression is just too real. It turns out that this is more than really good acting – director John McTiernan helped out a bit.
Rickman practiced falling backwards onto an airbag several times. During rehearsals, the actor was dropped on the count of three. But when they actually filmed the scene, they dropped him at “one.” Rickman really was surprised when he was suddenly free-falling through the air.
