Skyfall 2012 practical excavator stunt

Skyfall (2012) might look like it's packed with digital wizardry, but honestly, so much of it was real. The crew actually mounted a full-size CAT 320D excavator onto a moving train in Turkey, and Daniel Craig really did sprint along that arm and leap onto the carriage with just a barely-there safety wire keeping him from disaster. You can't even see the wire in the behind-the-scenes clips, which is wild. That's the whole vibe of the film though, authentic stunts, genuine locations, and massive physical effects, with CGI only stepping in to polish things up and hide the rigging rather than build the world from nothing. You can genuinely tell the difference on screen. It's easily one of the best-looking Bond movies ever made.
