Remember when Fast & Furious was a low-budget street racing movie?
As the car stunts in the Fast & Furious films have become more audacious and less realistic, the budgets for the films have increased astronomically. Filmed on a massive budget of $125 million compared to the first film s modest $39 million, Fast Five is one of the most popular films in the franchise, culminating with a destructive heist in which two Dodge Charger muscle cars tow a bank vault on the streets of Rio de Janeiro, destroying everything in their path.
In another memorable scene, Dominic Toretto and his crew steal some exotic cars from a moving train and load them onto modified trucks. In a new video, Craig Lieberman, the technical adviser for the first three Fast & Furious films, explains how the sequence was filmed, providing insight into the stunt cars that were built for the scene.
