Reply to comment by mc-edit in Ok, very weird and specific question - Raising Hope, S4 E9 - The Chance Who Stole Christmas - 2 minutes 20 seconds in - Lady falls from parade float - looks to hit head on ground and go into fencing response - Did the stunt person actually get hurt? by jimboknows6916

oh MANNNNN. i know that scene very well, as BTTF is one of my favorite movies ever and it gets me every time. the sound when his skull hits the pavement is bone chilling for me.

I guess back in the 80s it was a little more "put some ice on it and laugh at the stars circling around his head" and now its more - yikes thats a brain injury, but it still gets me pretty bad.

EDIT: to be clear, im talking about him hitting his head on the pavement in the movie, not the stuntman.

The sound was added in post-production. He landed on a mat.
