And then he grabs the last and most important equipment. And we have the strings back for one last time, the sound of the metal that starts compressing. And this sound is released once he refills his lungs. High strings creep in every time Kelly’s slowly losing the oxygen in his body. I tried to keep these shots on Kelly holding his breath as long as possible, to really have the audience feel his struggle. The rhythm, the music, the cuts, are all dictated by when Michael would need to get air. And this whole cargo scene is all built on Kelly’s breath. He trained for months to be able to hold his breath longer, while swimming and moving in the water in full gear. And this was also all done by Michael himself. Kelley dives in the sinking tail of the plane and uses air pockets to get the oxygen he needs. At this point, Kelly either aborts the mission or gets the gear. This huge metal rig would split one part of the aisle and then sink it in the tank. And the third part was the mechanism that breaks the plane in half. That way the entire cast could move while the plane rotated. The first class was half-way in a huge tank, and around it we built a rotating mechanism with pistons and motors.

Outside of the cockpit we built this slide that would release tons of water. And then we divided the crash sequences into four parts. And to shoot this sequence practically, we bought an actual plane, which we cut into pieces. He has to get back the gear to finish the mission. The audience needed to be reminded of his determination for revenge. So I decided to shoot the whole crash mainly from Kelly’s, Michael’s, point of view, only briefly showing the outside of the plane. I wanted to create an intimate relation with the protagonist. Jordan, psychology in such an extreme situation.

What was important to me was Kelly’s, played by Michael B.

Their plane is shot down and crashes in the ocean. This sequence comes after the midpoint of the film, when the team is about to parachute to their location.
