'John Wick: Chapter 4' is in theaters now, and Lionsgate's TikTok is releasing plenty of behind-the-scenes footage showcasing the movie's fast-paced action. In this clip, a stuntman performs an incredible tumble down a tall escalator and stays in character as a dead man while the heroes pass him by. The clip has 51.5 million views, and fans can't believe their eyes. "HE WAS REAL?"
"Stuntman better get PAID," one person says; a sentiment shared by much of the comment section. "Really should be a stuntman nomination category at Oscars." The secret behind the stunt? According to this comment, "Lots of pads underneath your wardrobe and the ability to roll perfectly, plus pain tolerance."
The stunt is so good, that Keanu Reaves and his band of heroes look pitifully lame in comparison, slowly miming their way down the moving stairs. It really does take an entire effects team to make action movies look cool. It's about time stunt teams started to get some of the credit they deserve.
