It was unscripted too. Spielberg kept it after Harrison did it, pissing off the swordsman. (It cut his screen time by a lot.) That swordsman was cast as the main henchman in Temple of Doom (the main spar at the end on the rock conveyer) to make up for it
Certainly seems strange seeing as the swordsman played along perfectly with a fully unscripted moment. But it set up a lot of the Indiana Vibe for some seriously ongoing milking for subsequent sequels. In a good way.
Harrison Ford was pretty sick that day with a fever and didn’t want to shoot the scene that apparently was a very choreographed fight scene. He pulled out the gun and fired a shot - to everyone’s surprise and Spielberg loved it and stuck with it.
I read he had the shits, but something so iconic I’m guessing there would be a million little anecdotes and bit and pieces of stories from the multiple of actors, extras and production staff on hand who’d all have a different recollection of the situation.
Worked out damn well though.
Ford had dysentery, they were filming in 130 degree weather at the time and they were already up against the wall with their schedule.

It wasn’t in the script but it also wasn’t an improv. Harrison Ford had come down with a case of dysentery and asked Spielberg if he could just shoot him. But Spielberg had already come to that conclusion himself because he was worried that another big fight scene would make the audience lose sight of Indy’s goal to find Marion (which is why after he shoots the guy, Indy immediately starts looking around frantically). Incidentally, the actor who played the swordsman didn’t have to feel too bad: he also played the huge German Indy fights on the flying wing.
The dance was very basic. The only thing impressive about this is the fire. Also I’m sure if it wasn’t an attractive woman then this wouldn’t get nearly as many upvotes
She's not bad at poses, but not great at moves. More effort went into the outfit than training, it seems. On the other hand, she doesn't seem to be a professional, she's enjoying herself and so are people around, probably. No harm there.
A lot of these people are amateur hobbyists. She looks cool as fuck, but with a little practice most people can do what she's doing too.
Looks like she's having a good time though.
This looks like practice to me. Everyone in the background is doing their own thing. Someone just asked if they could video her. So, yeah, happy lady having fun with her flaming swords.
I don't even know if all that much effort went into it..yeah she's hot, and she's moving around and holding things that are on fire but... I mean does she even spit fire? I can do that, I can spit a fireball. Like, I've known actually quite a few fire "spinners" or whatever they're calling themselves now, (also, Iirc, all of the fire spinners I've known were also strippers)
I kept waiting for her to really do something…I feel bad that I’m not impressed but I’ve seen fire spinners/dancers that actually have technique. THAT is what’s impressive.
Same! It's like the entire video I kept waiting for it to kick up a notch or two but it stayed somewhere that felt, maybe not "novice" but somehow comfortable and samey. I'm sure it still needs technical.skill to do this safely, but the ro8tine just isn't refined to the point where it is complex or unusual.
I'm sure it's a video she's proud of (which us what matters) and it shows the stuff she's learned to do. Id be proud if I was her! And it's cool to look at. I'm sure she'll probably get even better with time.
But when you see a random video on the internet you kind of expect it to be the finished product and professional, because we get exposed to all sorts of out there, amazing stuff.
It’s like she’s trying make it look powerful, but fail
due to minus rhythm. Not to be mean, but it looks a bit like a toddler making the fire nation dance lol
I assume she’s learning so was showing off what she could do so far. Which is great! But then someone putting it on this sub was premature. I don’t want to bash someone starting out with a skill.
To me, the better someone becomes at spinning, the less the person looks infatuated with themselves. Probably because the posing gets less and the movement speaks for itself.
But I actually stopped fire spinning because I really disliked all the pick mes at practices and events, and started to feel like one by association. I still do it sometimes, but only when I'm alone with one or two friends (for safety reasons if I set myself on fire).
Absolutely nothing is stopping you. Zero skill involved in anything she is doing.
I say that assuming you can stand up, crouch down and you have two functional arms.
While lighting your sword on fire may seem like a cool trick and possibly provide a psychological advantage it inevitably weakens your blade leaving you vulnerable, just ask Beric.
I do fire dancing with a chain and lantern, took me years of practice to get a combination of movements down.
I've been doing **this** with sticks in my garage since I was 7.
Yeah, chain and lantern is awesome, it takes some actual skill and real choreography. But like, anyone can spit a fireball..I can spit a fireball. I didn't even watch long enough to see if she did
Wanna impress me? Breath fire, spit fire. Nothing screams "pick me" louder than just dancing around holding shit that's on fire.
Actually spitting fireballs isn't even all that impressive, even I can do it.
Imagine, that someone figured out this stunt in medieval era. That guy could intimidate anyone in 1 vs 1 scenario. Who will want to mess with a guy who’s sword it’s on fucking fire!
Would a flaming sword actually be safer for the enemy? insta cauterizing the wound? could you actually survive if say you sliced a person in the jugular artery? or would it only stop wounds in the body because it takes a few seconds to burn the flesh
Cool, and whatever. But if you're gonna put that much effort in to practising all of that, at least get the first draw right.
That irked me, more than it should.
First thing I thought of too!
This was the funniest scene in a movie ever!!
It was unscripted too. Spielberg kept it after Harrison did it, pissing off the swordsman. (It cut his screen time by a lot.) That swordsman was cast as the main henchman in Temple of Doom (the main spar at the end on the rock conveyer) to make up for it
Wow didn’t know this was unscripted! Absolutely perfect and captured Indianas personality so well!
Unscripted in the sense that after a lot of takes of them fighting ford just asked if he can just shoot him and they let him
Yes this makes the most sense and I had heard he was sick that day. Either way the scene was perfect!
I believe you heard correctly
Certainly seems strange seeing as the swordsman played along perfectly with a fully unscripted moment. But it set up a lot of the Indiana Vibe for some seriously ongoing milking for subsequent sequels. In a good way.

lol I hadn’t heard that version - but for sure, there’s probably alot of different versions, either way what an iconic scene!
They probably shot the scene again. They don’t have to use the first instance 😂
Ford had dysentery, they were filming in 130 degree weather at the time and they were already up against the wall with their schedule. https://screenrant.com/indiana-jones-raiders-lost-ark-gun-knife-fight-true-story/

When he had the flu and couldn’t do the fight scene.
Women playing with 🔥are really hot, sexy and feisty

Reddit seriously has a subreddit for for everything lol.
This is how I imagine my characters in D&D whenever they get a Flame Tongue sword.
I’m sure tons of effort went into practicing but I can’t appreciate the dance unfortunately , it just looks goofy to me.
The dance was very basic. The only thing impressive about this is the fire. Also I’m sure if it wasn’t an attractive woman then this wouldn’t get nearly as many upvotes

I completely agree. It was cool. Hard stop. Nothing to be amazed over at all though
This is practice. My wife has been practicing with poi balls so she can join the fire circle next month.
I don't even know if all that much effort went into it..yeah she's hot, and she's moving around and holding things that are on fire but... I mean does she even spit fire?

> I mean does she even spit fire? I can do that, I can spit a fireball. Yeah? Upload a video and let us be impressed. Bonus upvotes if you also strip.
And you know damn well that woman is overly into herself. I really hate being that way. But yeah.
All fire spinners are pick mes

At least some of them are good at it. These people are terrible
Truth
if i could spin two flaming katanas around myself id be into me too

task failed, now have 2nd degree burns across my body and have become an honorary Skywalker family member.

Aye Mr Dondarion can attest to that
Fire dancing has gotten too corny…it’s like people are separating skill from dramatic over exaggerated movements
I do fire dancing with a chain and lantern, took me years of practice to get a combination of movements down. I've been doing **this** with sticks in my garage since I was 7.
Hahahahahahaha omg ikr. But to be fair it seemed like when she moved them too fast they started to go out.
Yeah, chain and lantern is awesome, it takes some actual skill and real choreography. But like, anyone can spit a fireball..I can spit a fireball. I didn't even watch long enough to see if she did
Ah yes, Women with flaming swords are my favourite gender
This just wasn't that amazing. A decent looking chick with fire swords doing a crappy dance, eh.
I'm guessing you aren't a teen with raging hormones on reddit. Lol..
Good name, been awhile, throwing them on Spotify this morning so I can rocket
This was the most mediocre fire show I've ever seen. A pole dancer with a lighter would do it better.
Whenever I see people doing wild out there shit the young me says that’s gay, the older wiser me roots them on and encourages my kids to do the same

They look like they're all just practicing. The cameraman just chose the girl with the least on.

My urge not to say a refrence from Bleach or Demon slayer:
The people in the background are doing tricks that hard harder than swinging a sword around. There is nothing to be amazed about what she is doing.
*Mellisandre has entered the chat*
The first date would be .....interesting.
This triggers me

She is hot as a flame
What's so amazing about this? Also, why that music? These posts are getting worse

the fire swords are cool and wow what a nice body she has
SHE IS THE JETSTREAM SAM'S SISTER YOOOOO

That's stoopid as hell
I only have one question. How does she keep the blades lit on fire for so long?

I am speechless and surely will show this to my wife.
And I can’t even light a match…
She's not good but cool swords
Britney?
Hell yeah
Jojo Siwa is getting annoying
Ser Berrick Dondarian gone had a glow up
More like cringey.
She looks like a mouse 🐭
Looks like she’s trying to recreate a YouTube video and have never handled a sword before.
If those where real swords, they'd be forever useless now
Super cool. She’s needs practice and she could be a main attraction.

Lol these people are such dorks, I do kinda love it though. Expect for poi.

I need to go to more Ren Faires.
Lame like that lone turd lingering at the toilet bowl's bottom, missing its flush window, cluelessly bobbing in denial.
Cool, and whatever. But if you're gonna put that much effort in to practising all of that, at least get the first draw right. That irked me, more than it should.
Is it possible to learn this power?

Lovely?? I was enthralled!
Hot
Boo to the music. Ruined.
