Let’s face it, the vast bulk of disaster flick San Andreas, starring Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, is special effects.
Strip away all of the stunts, CGI and other fancy spectacles and what are we left with? Well, it looks as ridiculous as you’d expect but there’s something undeniably cool about it all.
Behind the scenes footage shows partially how the scenes were put together by cast and crew before the special effects were added and the threat level is most certainly zero.
But watching stuntmen and extras being flung about on wires is entertaining all the same. And it’s good to know that The Rock is all about health and safety beneath the bravado, as he wore his hard hat and harness while entering the fray.
