You must have seen the snippet of 'Fast and Furious 7,' where cars are being dropped from the airplane. Well, it turns out that the swanky vehicles were actually dropped from the sky.
The speculations regarding the sequence where the characters are seen driving out of a moving airplane, and the cars parachute thousands of feet above the road, of being practical effect or mostly computer graphics have been there, but now the filmmakers released a featurette that shows that the crew did drop cars from a moving aircraft, with humans and cameras in tow, the Verge reported.
Thankfully the actors weren't in the driving seat.
The latest film in the franchise releases on April 3rd.
