  • can someone point out the schoolbus i cant find it and if it was shot in one take you should be able to catch a glimpse of a huge yellow buswhich would be traveling towards the camera in this shot

  • The angle is wrong here. The school bus turned right before entering into this frame. It can be seen in the overhead shots from helicopters in other videos.

  • wheres the school bus and heath? :/

  • You can just see the school bus moving in the lower portion of the screen as the walls come down.

  • remember, films are not always shot in order.; They might have shot the scene where the bus drives away the first day and then the shot of the builiding blowing up the next day.

  • This was all done in One Take.

    They lit the fuse and blew this junk up!

    Pyro and demo charges going off. POW! WHAM!

    Heath Ledger was only about 100 yards from the corner farthest from the camera when the gasoline charges went off and the walls came down.

  • @Olemwrongway are you blind?

  • HOLY SHIT!!!!!! I THOUGHT THIS WAS CGI! NO WONDER CHRIS NOLAN IS SO AMAZING.

  • woah i thought in movies they use special effects not blowing stuff in real life!

  • Wow they so it was a real explosion in the film

  • The people who set up those explosions probably worked with the director to set a spot where the Joker could leave during the blast and Ledger would not be injured.

  • Nope, no green screening whatsoever.

  • awsome vid

  • I'd bet on green screening in post.

    And it's "debris"
