A cool GIF has made its way online that shows the same clip from 2011’s horror thriller Final Destination 5, only it’s been spliced with a before-and-after VFX presentation. The clip is from the collapsing suspension bridge scene and the top of the GIF shows everything pre-VFX while the bottom shows the final product.

It’s fascinating seeing such an intricate and catastrophic scene being played out without the final perspective fully known (even ending up as one of the more accurate bridge destruction sequences in film history). Each actor simply had to have faith in the VFX team to make what they were doing believable, even the guy who jumped across the “gap”, grabbed onto the ledge, and then fell into a pile of seemingly delightfully soft green screen pillows! Also, you’ll notice more and more with each view of the GIF, so be sure to give it a couple of passes.

In Final Destination 5:

During a bus ride with his colleagues to a corporate retreat, Sam experiences a horrifying vision: the suspension bridge that they — and many others — are crossing starts to crumble around them. When his vision ends and, almost immediately, starts to come true, Sam takes quick action that saves a number of people, including his girlfriend, Molly, and his best friend, Peter. However, the survivors soon find that Death will not be denied.
