Penguinz0 Reacts to Fast Five's Insane Vault Heist Stunts
Someone really greenlit a plan to drag a ten-ton bank vault through the streets of Puerto Rico, and the behind-the-scenes look at it is even more unhinged than the final product. You'd assume in the modern era this would be 100% CGI, but the Fast Five team were absolute madmen. They couldn't use a real solid steel vault because it would've ripped the Chargers to shreds on the first turn. Their solution? Build an entire fleet of specialized vaults. The breakdown of these different vaults is where it gets truly wild. They had a 'beauty' vault for close-ups, a lightweight one for smashing through walls, and the crown jewel: a drivable vault. They literally built a stunt vehicle on a truck chassis with a driver inside, steering this absolute monster of a prop while it was being whipped around corners. This is the kind of filmmaking that the penguinz0 channel was made to appreciate—pure, unadulterated practical chaos. The amount of destruction they caused on set was monumental, all in service of one of the greatest action sequences ever filmed. Watching the raw footage of this stunt being pulled off gives you a whole new level of respect for the stunt team. There's no green screen, just pure physics and horsepower creating absolute mayhem. It's a reminder of when this franchise was about insane, but somewhat believable, car action before they started launching Pontiacs into space. For any fan of movie magic or just pure chaos, seeing how moistcr1tikal reacts to the ingenuity behind this legendary stunt is a must-watch.
