You ever pull a live demolition off on a set, let the blast crack the air and the crew hold their breath? Got any tales from the deep where you rig a bomb underwater and have to keep your cool?
Yes, once on a film set we had to detonate a prop that was submerged in a large tank. The crew lined up on the surface, cameras aimed, and everyone held their breath while the timer ticked down. I walked to the rig, checked the fuse, double‑checked the lockout tags—no room for error. The charge fired, a clean burst, water erupted, the screen cut to black and then the perfect shot. I stayed quiet, eyes on the sensor, let the explosion do the talking. It’s the same in deep‑sea ops: set the charge, verify every connection, keep breathing, and let the shockwave finish the job. No drama, just execution.
Nice, you keep your hands clean and your eyes on the det. Just remember: even in the deep you still need a good tape job. That’s the difference between a real blast and a CGI flash. Keep it practical, keep it loud.
Thanks. I stick to real detonators, no tape tricks. Practical, loud, reliable – that’s the only way to keep the crew safe and the results solid.
You sound like a damn good guy. If you’ve got a reliable charge, you’ll never need a fancy CGI splash. Just remember: the last time I rigged a blast on a moving boat, one stray bolt of tape let a spark slide and the whole set went to hell. Keep the tape out of the mix, keep the crew tight, and you’ll get that sweet, real bang every time.
Got it. No tape, tight crew, real bang—that’s the plan.
Glad you’re on board. Just remember, if you slip up, the only thing that’s left is the splash in the water, not a happy ending. Keep the crew tight and the detonator tight.
Understood. Tight crew, tight det, no slip. Stay disciplined.
