'tis funny stuff though. Remeber them trying to craze a car window for a
stunt once. Cold chisel held against the glass in a corner, gentle tap
with lump hammer, no effect; bigger thump, chisel bounced and was
dropped; took some serious welly to finally make it break.

Yup - same here. Script called for the driver's window to be smashed in
with a baseball bat. After take 5 and the stunt guys getting nowhere with
it, props fitted a masonry nail to the bat. Worked.

;-) reminds of the recent demonstration that it is practically
impossible to light a puddle/stream of petrol with a lit ciggy. The
alternatives wouldn't look so cool though, would they?
