For me, this starts and ends with the guy in AVTAK who gets booted from the blimp. First, the whole notion of a staircase that collapses into a slide -- did Zorin raid Scaramanga's funhouse -- built especially for that purpose just heightens the absurdity. Second, the dummy's knees hyperextend during the fall. And third, we get the canned scream previously used for the MR PTS guy and Gobinda and later to be used for Necros.

they had started using Dummies with electric motors in them, so arms and
legs could move as they fell, adding a bit more realism.
