- Wyatt Knox, Special Projects Director at the Team O'Neil Rally School, takes a look at some more driving scenes from television and film and breaks down how accurate they really are. Does an all-wheel drive car like the one featured in Baby Driver really have an advantage over front or rear-wheel drive cars? Do the horsepower numbers from the car pulling scene in The Fate of the Furious really add up? Are Talladega Nights' drafting scenes true to real NASCAR?

Pro Driver Breaks Down 16 Driving Scenes From Film & TV | WIRED - Zábava
The most unrealistic part of LA driving scenes is them actually being able to drive greater than 5 mph.
Well it would be realistic. The reason you drive at 5 mph all the time is because all the roads are blocked so they can make these movies of people driving. Just jokes. Have a laugh
As someone who grew up in LA... this is one of my biggest pet peeves in movies set in LA. The only movie that ever did it right was The Italian Job (Remake) where traffic was a legitimate problem for the get-away driver and a good chunk of the movie was spent figuring out how to make the street traffic a non-issue.
Not if you wait until 11am-2pm like a respectable driver
@@B0mber44 i agree
And very few Latinos around.
*Professional serial killer breaks down 15 serial killing scenes in movies and tv* | WIRED
Supremekrispykream lmao
"that neck snap technique is horribly inefficient"
"Man this really brings back memories."
'now the best way to get rid of the body'
“i actually knew the guy he’s playing in this film”
this guy looks like he'll win any and all challenges involving staring.
Or non blinking contest
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wired tends to freeze the image of the person while the clip is playing, you’re probably talking about that 🙃
I just rewatched it and I owe you an apology, they didn’t pause it. This guy’s not blinking is freaking me out a bit tho lol
@@sikeko rally drivers have to blink less. Blinking too much means you see less even for a split second and can cause you to crash.
"For the sake of what it is, it's on point" This is why I like him, he is willing to accept some inaccuracy, to talk about what they ARE doing right doing the scene.
it’s so fun to see in his face that he’s actually enjoying the scenes
its because we cars guys love cars, and if we see a bloke driving a car well, we give some respect lmao knowing most poepl
plus this guy is great, he runs DIRTFISH RALLY SCHOOL, if you wanna know how to drive better than your average American, and also be on par with most of finlands drivers
OH YEA I FORGOT, the car used in baby driver is actually RWD not AWD, therefore more impressive
@@theshanamaster not really. Especially for drifting where it's easier to learn on dry, warm pavement to drift with RWD
3:53 sure looks fun
They forgot the three most realistic car movies:
- CARS
- SPEED RACER
- HERBIE
GQ Sports had a racecar driver look at Herbie XD
Ben Kim HERBIE
Redline
😂😂😂😂😂
Transformers
Whenever he watches the clip his face just goes 🙂
The car in baby driver was actually rear wheel drive. In order to get the slides and drifts, they had it converted.
Beat me to it!
So... why are the front wheels burning rubber than?
Yeah sucks I had to scroll so far down to see someone point that out ..
Marvin L cgi
Really? I thought all Subaru Impreza where 4WD. Or is it a different car?
Professional walker breaks down walking scene's
they will need to review the ministry of silly walks.
Secobd there thought that said wanker lol
The plural of scene is scenes. No need for the apostrophe
JoKer oooh my time to shine. I can walk pretty decently
Haim enters *
Baby Driver: Inaccurate. You cannot drive though Atlanta like that. Too much traffic.
I hear ya!
I’m surprised he didn’t point out how impossible that turn would be if they used an actual AWD car.
You do know that all the driving in that movie was done practically? With a real, if a bit modified, AWD car. If you're talking about the 180 @0:52 I think Ken Block does that move in most, if not all, of the Gymkhana videos.
@@bansheeflier1015 the corridor crew talked about that movie, according to them the car was definitely more than a "bit" modified lol
@@darkceptor44 So your saying they would use an unmodified stock car, being pro hiest men...and a pro driver specifically chosen for a job like that. C'mon, use your head. I wouldn't muck around with nothing less than top of the line everything to pull a job like that. . .
I am very proud and happy for Wyatt Knox and Team O'Neil Rally School. Good to see you guys get recognized for giving back and teaching the CZcams community. I've been a long time fan of your guys' channel and rally driving lessons.
Guy: "You're a lucky man"
Paul Walker: "How's that?"
Guy: "You're still breathing"
Me: \*high pitch\* "Eeeeeeeeeeeehh......"
Did the exact same thing lmao
too soon
Nah, just in time haha
Too soon junior😅
R.I.P.
That was Braga
Professional professional breaks down professional scenes.
Now why did I laugh at this? 😂😂😂😂😂
Yes this would be enticing
WHY DID I LAUGH AT THIS ROFL LOL LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well, there is a movie called "the Professional" that's about a professional but it's played by a paid actor. He is a professional actor but not a professional professional.
This seems like a job for Vincent Adultman
I misread the title and thought it said pro diver breaks down diving scenes and tbh that's also a version I'd like to see
I just misread your comment I thought you said what the title said and I was really confused lmao
@@amandinetardy9206 we've come full circle
I read it as pro driver breaks down diving scenes and I was really confused
i am the 696th like. nice
GQ has a formula 1 driver break this down too. Go check it out
I love how the "Jumping the Car - Dukes of Hazzard" you can actually see the camera mounted on the passenger side of the car as it runs up to the jump... Watch closely at 12:02 and it switches to that camera at 12:06.
Fun fact: None of the cars survived those big jumps. It's estimated that between 256 and 321 "General Lee" vehicles were destroyed during the making of Dukes of Hazzard.
Corkscrew jump: Legit.
My mind: Splattered on the wall.
Professional Lion breaks down Lion King and Madagascar.
Lion: That was racist
Hi im mufasa professional lion
Lion: RARGH RARGH, RAAARGH RARGH that's wrong RARGH
you forgot NARNIA
Professional Lion? Do you mean like what a politician does? :D
Another thing about the bullitt car chase, not only do they pass the green volkswagon a half dozen times, the charger loses 5 or 6 hubcaps. Still one of the best chase scenes of all time.
Jack reacher car chase scene is up there with bullit it's so underrated
That's also real SF traffic that they filmed in.
JalapenoPaul, that Beetle was apart of the same exact scene just edited to capture different angles of the action sequence. It’s really not hard to figure that out.
Damnit Hammond.
@@ShaunKVideos yeah but in the full scene they go around a corners and hills and the green vw is there throughout.
I'm surprised there weren't any Mad Max: Fury Road scenes. I could watch an hour of that stuff.
That's OK, there's another video on CZcams about the making of that movie.
Lol, I love how he's advising how to make wheel spikes out of real steel.
IKR IDK why none else talked about it, I came all the way down looking if someone else is gonna talk about it he was like spikes are bad sportsmanship but id suggest to make them with high strength steel and bolt them through your lug nuts then you have some useful wheel spikes xDD
Professional poker player breaking down poker scenes please
ooh good one
That would be so interesting
Would be a short video because hollywood only ever thought of one scene and endlessly copies that.
And put The God of Gambling on the screen.
Yeeeeees! James Bond scenes and, although it's not poker, maybe cover "21".
Great idea.
"I'm no expert at shooting left-handed out the window when you're trying to pull it off..."
YOU'RE NOT???
I laugh at that statement because Bruce Willis being left-handed might make shooting during that maneuver a little easier.
Pathetic.
You can see that hand tilted about 45 degree upwards shooting nothing but birds , but what can you do its a movie.
1:40 did they really have a slide whistle in that Bond film? That director should be shot.
Yeaaaah lol, that was during a time when Bond got super squirrely. It sucks because it's legitimately one of the greatest car stunts in all of film.
Yes they did. Where were you when that film came out? Different times.
@@davidcruz8667 Just a twinkle in my dad's eye. Been a while since I've seen that Bond film, but I do remember that scene. I must have blocked out the slide whistle. ahaha
Love the car and driving content, keep it coming!
I'm surprised how many driving scenes were actually realistic/possible
It's not what happens that's unrealistic, it's that a random nobody character knows how to do it, and the car surviving the action that's unrealistic :p
well yes, you just gotta get out sometime and hoon your vehicle, your learn more than a driving instructor that tells you how to abide laws, not how to handle G-Forces or how to stop a spin
Ashleigh most of the older ones they just had to do the stunt. No real way to fake it. I bet he has the best ratio of right/not right though
@@MarchingGrrl yeah but the bit where the car continues to drive after the jump/stunt isn't real. They went through so many cars on Dukes of Hazzard, Many of them were one jump and done.
well often its easier to just get someone to drive the course rather than cg it
i love this series so much! it would be super cool to see see psychologists break down therapy scenes or mental illness portrayals !!
Joker movie would be a perfect candidate for that.
not exactly a psychologist but dr hope does that on his channel, not a ton of videos but he talked about tony stark's condition through the iron man movies
Yes, that would be so cool! I wonder at the accuracy of therapy sessions in TV, and if they differ irl (as I expect they do) why therapists might do/say/guide things differently. :)
Then they would show how much people are faking their illnesses.
If you haven't seen it yet, Cinema Therapy does stuff like this
"this was real driving, so it's pretty realistic"
...riveting.
@Craig Finger who did I "team kill?" To whom did I "Talk Kenosha?" Who did I "tackle kiss?" I'm not sure what TK means in this context
@@augoosto11 who did you Teafom Kierjguseigf4839, pretty obvious
Me, the owner of a 99HP Geo Tracker: "Hmm. Mhm. Yess, I see."
Man, those are getting rare. Take care of that little beast.
My mom had 2 of them here in Germany! Great cars but they're called Suzuki Vitara here :D
I have a 97 tracker we are currently prepping for a 2j swap...
Dealer breaks down casino scenes. I'll do it if you want a fat old guy on Wired. Also, I like the scene selections in this video and this series in general.
I used to be a croupier. Back then me and my friends would sit around and watch the film "the croupier" and get quite passionate about critiquing their technique. Although to be honest I've never seen a dealer in a film that's impressed me too much.
@@uralwong799 Croupier was great but I was a lot smoother and faster than Jack, as are many thousands of dealers.
This guy, the language guy and the surgeon have been absolutely amazing, well done Wired
The Forensic guy is pretty good, too. And the Robot guy.
I really liked robot guy too
This was the best of all the driving ones they've done. He really explained it well, and made it fun.
I know this has nothing to do with the video, but I love how expressive his eyes aree!
When he explains, he kinda sounds like Doctor Mike...?
I think it's like the clear way he explains things and also the enthusiasm he has when talking about something they love
Haha, just listened to the voice again. It's got the same husky sound.
He's passionate and he knows what he's talking about. That's why he sounds like Dr. Mike.
Hey Doctor Mike fans! I come in peace, and bring cookies! (I'm not good at socializing. I'm just happy there are other people who love him too.)
Yep
I think an Episode of a musician breaking down people playing/singing in movies would be great! Having somebody like Adam Neely or Jacob Collier on.
Or me
Twoset or Ling Ling
Bruh adam neely would be perfect. Already did half an hour on whiplash lol.
Mt Kira Ahahaha just about to say
@@mtkira4526 that's what I thought
So articulate and positive. Love this!
Lmao the baby scene explanation was funny given the fact they converted the wrx to rwd for the movie in order to pull off the drifts
My Dad is a professional pilot if you need that, Wired. I’d like to see it!
A channel called "74 Gear" already did a couple. I think he flies 747.
H Kr my dad has flown boeings, airbuses, gulf streams - you name it
thats cool
willmakesvideos k
My dad died in 911 he was the best pilot I’ve ever seen
You may not have seen the whole thing, but for the Die Hard with a Vengeance, John asks Zeus to pull the fuses for the ABS , but you were spot on. (rarely enough the writers actually thought of that). :)
That's a great little detail
and he's a lefty
The thumbnail lead me to believe this was going to be a Team O'neil Rally School video. Lol. Good stuff, Wyatt.
Shocked I had to scroll this far down to see a relevant comment about Wyatt- he's killing it as always 👍
Really apreciated that he kept the context of entertainment that the movies have. Thanks for the remarks at the end.
Great video, thanks WIRED!
I have been following your channel for some time, informative and clear quality content! I recognised you in this video!
Your welcome :)
The suby in baby driver is actually RWD.
Keep these videos coming, I love these breakdowns 🥰
I like the dead-eyed stare while he's vibing internally to clips.
*professional superhero breaks down 15 different different superhero scenes in movies and TV | WIRED*
This is so much better than the GQ videos with Daniel Ricciardo and Danica Patrick. The producers and editors really did their job here and made the most of the guest. The scenes are well selected and Knox is able the give focused and technical answers. Great job by everyone involved.
Wyatt is pretty composed in general, he does have a youtube channel after all.
I finally see what Sean Evans does while he's not doing Hot Ones. Of course he talks with his hands, that's Sean Evans!
I was expecting him to comment on that water and how it helped. 1:04
"I'm no expert at shooting out the window left-handed while trying to do it." That part got me, couldn't stop laughing.
Well, I'm left handed and had to do it in Iraq, so I guess I would be sorta like an expert. It's doable.
The spikes on the hubcaps in "Grease" were an homage to the chariot race in "Ben Hur" (1959). Another good car chase was "The Seven Ups" (1973).
That was really interesting , I was nostalgic seeing Dukes of Hazzard .
The green VW is actually great continuity
Yeah, gives you perspective of where you are. First you're in the Charger, then we see the followup and next you're in the Mustang in the same scene. Great continuity.
exactly what I was thinking
Austin Man he’s a driver not a movie critic. LOL
I literally just saw this guy explaining how to turn a fiesta into a rally monster! He's awesome, hope he gets on to some more channels soon.
Cool video, looking forward to the next one.
I could listen to that guy for ages. So interesting
i love how he almost lost it to "YEEEEEEEHAWWWW"
i really like this guy. can critique whats wrong, still enjoy it, and admit that it doesnt always have to be realistic for film.
Well done again Wired. Watching him watching the clips are so enjoyable, and his face OMG, priceless. He's very good. Also, his English is pretty clear, amazing speech skills! Kudos!
"there's the green Volkswagen" i want that on a shirt lol
I’d love to see him breakdown the opening car chase in 6 Underground next time. I’m sure he’d have a ton he could say.
Hey I actually watch your rally channel! Really enjoyed your tutorials!
6:04 I love that random Yippee kay yay
I love this guy 🤗🤗😊
2:38 reminded me of Driver: San Francisco.
Gotta love the famous Bullet Chase scene as well as The Blues Brothers
that bit about skiing and mountain biking is totally accurate, you look ahead at where you wanna go because you absolutely will hit what you focus on.
I'd love to see him talk about the French movie series "Taxi"
Do a Professional Mime breaks down mime scenes lol
But he wouldn't be able to talk...
Elli Horn hey look guys he got the joke
Too many of these videos are being made, but the wired ones actually offer quality content. Good production, good expert, good clips!
THANK YOU for showing him Blues Brothers!!! It wouldn't have been the same without that masterpiece XD
@1:25 - you mean like every Fast and Furious with exaggerated over the top gear shifting that stops making any sense at certain point?
Bruh, he seems very positive about some of those stunts. It's almost like life is easy.
I love his explanation for the jag busting through the C-pillar and the mini going down the stairs.
but for a lot of them he was just like "there is no CG. next movie"... was hoping for more detail, like how they might have done it, or what would make it difficult IRL... like some deeper knowledge, not like... "when you do a jump, you want a nice landing ramp". things I might not know about cars, driving, or how they film car chases.
Several of the action shots with that Subaru in Baby Driver were with a heavily modified RWD converted WRX.
I was “unintentionally” pit maneuvered by a plow truck one winter, after passing him in a double lane … it was wild. Plus the plow blew out the tire it hit. So lucky I ended up stabilizing on the road, in my lane, and somehow still in front of the truck after turning two 360s. 😋
09:59 I see what the editor did there
I, uh, pulled that 360 maneuver in front of a FedEx and lived to tell the tale. Last freak snow/sleet storm of 2010 (March) hydroplaned. Initially started skidding towards the semi truck, had a moment of panic (turning the wheel against the skid) before logic hit and I turned the wheel in the direction of the skid. The car broke loose, we flip 180 and were nose to nose. The driver saved us by moving into the passing lane as we whipped around again to end up on the exit ramp to Wamego, KS. No one got hurt. It still blows my mind.
nice to hear Jon Spencer Blue Explosion in the first clip
Professional bum breaking down chillin' scenes

professional stoner breaks down weed smoking scene: im hella qualified for that one wired js
Lmaooooo
Oh, its the McNeal rally guy. He sounded familiar.
Love how he is positive about every one
I love the in between edits 😂😂😂😂
Daniel Ricciardo would have lost his mind reviewing these movies
6:06 Bruce Willis is a natural left handed person...
Excellent presentation :) , I am not into cars and i watched it beginning to end.
That is one thing I’ve noticed. “If you look for the good places you’ll go to the good places” when driving at 15-25 mph faster than the rest of traffic and depending on traffic density, there’s a different rhythm to traffic, and it’s quite easy to get around people.
Can we take a moment and commend the editing team memeing every film for this reaction.
Ronin is easily one of the best car chases in the history of cinema.
100% and i was disappointed to see him brush over it
If I remember correctly, to get the actors in Ronin in close-up look like they were driving, they used right-hand drive versions of the car but fitted left-hand drive dashboards and a fake steering wheel. The actor moved the fake wheel and acted like they were driving while, out of shot, the stunt driver in the right front seat manoeuvered the car.
This is so nice!
I think I remember reading something about the Baby Driver modded wrx being converted to a rear-wheel drive train because it was near impossible to do the handbrake J-turn scene.
I like how he's ignoring the F&F horsepower scene is a crapfest 😂
Bruce Willis is left handed, good observation
One of the BEST cars I ever owned is the Mini Morris. It took me places most cars couldn't! Next best was an Alpine.
Wish I still had them!!!
Pretty good line up I must say
Anyone else notice that he never blinks when watching the movie clips?
On the Dukes jump, would you want your hands on the wheel at all at landing? I'd expect that is guaranteed broken thumbs, at minimum.
to me thats guaranteed arm fracture
most professional drivers/racers don’t wrap their thumb around the wheel 👍🏻
As far as the slingshot goes, I think the speed is somewhere between 60-100 (of course it varies based on aerodynamics of the vehicle) but after a certain speed ½ your horsepower goes towards just fighting the air resistance slowing you down, the other ½ goes towards actually putting down power on the road.
5:54 is me when the whole grocery store is in chaos during the first week of covid19 lol
2:54-3:16 *They go by that beetle at least 4 times in that car chase* 😂 *Man the only thing he’s caught up with is how many times that green volkswagon is in a shot and they’re driving past it*
3:04 *There’s the green Volkswagon*
3:09-3:11 *There’s the green Volkswagon*
3:13 *There’s the green volkswagon*
3:14-3:15 *There’s the green volkswagon*
4:13 If irony were strawberries, we’d all be drinking smoothies right now.
Thank you! You are the only other person I've ever heard who noticed the magic VW. It's in front. It's in back. It's on the side. It's Magic!
The video ive been waiting for
