Shooting a hanging scene - Page 2

How do they hang you without really hanging you, I just was wondering you know the way Madhu was hanging from the rope and kicking legs in free air because the stool was knocked off from under her, to shoot the scene of the kicking legs she must be genuinely hanging from her neck for a few seconds, that must be scary right?

For a few seconds whilst they do the filming you kick your legs a few times plus hang from a rope, what about if your neck accidentally snaps? Do they really shoot it like that or is it not really done the way they showed us...perhaps she's holding onto a bar above and just kicking her legs and we don't see the bar on top, I don't know but I wouldn't risk snapping my neck for shooting a serial and I doubt anyone else would either.

if u had watch any of the dance show u know there they do act with rope by hanging in air which is called as an ariel act in same way the rope is used here n apart from that it's the way they had shot these sequence n a bit of camera trik is also there rest of the thing is in the hands of the editer who edit the shot's so nicely that we actually thought madhu is hanged with the rope in air
