The height of cinematic entertainment. You'll want to watch The Scene in The Mummy Where Brendan Fraser Throws the Chair at that Guy over and over.

This scene wasn't in the script. We didn't actually have a plan for O'Connell to meet up with Beni until the next act in the desert. It was one of those shoots where it's early in the morning and the studio is freezing, and we're all miserable. Brendan waves me over and he says, "Hey, Mandrake. I got kind of a wild idea..." Then, completely unprompted and unrehearsed, he just fucking nailed Beni's stuntman with a wooden chair. And we got it on film. That's the take that's in the movie.... And he killed that stuntman. The coroner called it a fatal overdose of chair. The human body isn't supposed to have that much chair in it.

(belch; aluminum cans rattling)

Rachel Weisz just stole shit around the set... All the time.

RIP Beni's stuntman, he left us too soon but he died for a good cause aka this scene.

He looks down on us now from the better side of the river.

 

[John Dunbar]

beni needed a spin-off

[ConfusingJazz]

Kevin J O'Connor played a really good weasely asshole.

I am very glad he got popped by a chair.

[Indy in the Fridge]

I think I'd rather have my soul sucked from my body by a mummy then feel the pain of a chair thrown by Brendan Fraser.

 

[TheSkullPrince]

Movie is a masterpiece don't give a fuck what anyone else says.

Saw this in theaters when I was 12 years old and been in love with it ever since.

 

[iosefe]

i wish to one day have the fortitude to toss a chair like that

 

[MadLaughter]

can someone make an OT for this scene too

 

[SpookyTango]

There should be an OT for that stuntman that gets thrown off a moving car by Brendan Fraser into a wooden light pole.

 

[CD_93]

What a fucking movie.

 

[Jakenbakin]

Brendan Fraser's magnum opus, no doubt.

 

[Hollywood Duo]

One of my favorite movie going experiences

 

[dreams]

Best OT for sure

 

[Nocturnowl]

Goodbye Beni

 

[Aurongel]

OP deserves a medal.

 

[Serene]

I approve

the best wicker chair throwing that ever was

 

[T.Rex In F-14]

This movie fucking rules.

 

[Serene]

OP should provide it in gif form as well

 

[Beren]

Yeah but IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE BENNY GOT ALL THE HOR-SES!!

 

[Aurica]

Thanks for the OT. I've been looking forward to having a community to discuss this and different fan theories.

 

[MisterHero]

How does a guy who knows so many languages get hit by a chair

 

[Anoregon]

OP should provide it in gif form as well

His form is fucking immaculate

 

[Binster]

I humbly submit that the scene where Rick steps backwards out of a room while firing two pistols is the second best scene in the film.

 

[Man God]

It's an amazing movie, almost a perfect action movie.

 

[chainlinkspiral]

Nice OT

There are too many choices

 

[Clydefrog]

It's actually an inflatable chair being pulled around by various invisible strings to mimic strong force.

[shnurgleton]

I miss Brendan

 

[giancarlo123x]

I cackle at this shit all the time

 

[jon bones]

god i love this movie more & more all the time

 

[Keldroc]

I wouldn't even call it a guilty pleasure, it's a legitimately great fantasy action film. It's a shame the sequels were complete garbage. They should have gone with the original idea of the characters encountering a different Universal monster in each movie, but the studio chickened out and decided mummies and sand effects were the reason people liked the first one.
