@unpainted.stories: while filming The Deep in 1977, an underwater sequence involving a giant eel required an intense stunt. A diver was instructed to pull on a stick attached to the performer’s wrist with significant force. But during filming, the stunt double was seriously injured and dislocated her shoulder. The biggest problem? Underwater, communication was extremely difficult, making it hard to immediately signal that something had gone wrong. So what looks like a terrifying movie moment was actually the result of a real behind-the-scenes accident. It became a reminder of just how demanding—and risky—underwater filmmaking could be. #tiktokgrowthchallenge #TheDeep #MovieHistory #BehindTheScenes #FilmFacts
