LOTR bloopers: The cast's hilarious canoe training mishaps
Before shooting began, the cast trained hard for different scenes, like canoeing. Some did well, others not so much, often trying to make each other's boats tip. Despite beautiful locations, fast-moving water made things tough, causing accidents and unfair blaming. Viggo Mortensen remembers a tense moment when he found out a co-star couldn't swim, making filming even more intense.

“I can’t swim… we aren’t wearing life jackets… fast moving water… I am tiny. But no pressure!” 😳
Anyone who buys the DVDs without the 3 or 4 appendices discs are missing so many of these stories. I watch the behind the scenes and making of discs as much as I watch the movies. They just never get old.

my buddy and I used to have a yearly tradition of watching the movie at night, then the appendices in the afternoon leading to the next movie

Have to agree. The only way to go.
Always make me smile. The LOTR production and actors and EVERYTHING. The result. It was and will always be the masterpiece humanity barely deserves.
It's always the dwarf's fault

John is quite tall too :P
Just image how short the movies would be if the main character Frodo died by drowning. And Viggo would be the one to blame...No pressure 😅

I remember going to a water-park about a half-century ago as a Boy Scout (about 14 years old). My friend and I were near the top of the line for a slide that went into a lagoon (not a concrete-lined pool) when he asked me to wait for him in the water at the bottom of the slide, since he couldn't swim. after I went down the slide, I swam about 10-20 feet further out so he wouldn't hit me when he came down and treaded water. The lifeguard at the top of the slide told me to get out of the way, and told him the guy coming down the slide can't swim. He just shook his head and let me wait and help my friend to shallow water.
Okay I legit burst into laughter at Viggo doing that weird evil voice at the end hahahahahaha
always smiling in those interviews, those guys got to live it too, it was more than a movie, it was the real deal, just in contemporary times. they got their own one in a lifetime adventure and I bet that in 2024 every one of them would be smi8ling about it as much as in those interviews
That moment when you think “Huh. That sounds like a GAINFUL employment opportunity for a lifeguard, unlike most opportunities.”
The incident that John Rhys-Davies referred to is one clip that wasn't in this video: It was Orlando Bloom with Bret Beattie, Gimli's scale double, in their boat and when one of the film crew grabbed on the bow of the boat to prevent it from going into the wrong direction, water suddenly begin to fill the boat and Orlando noticed this and shouted "Let go! Let go!". Then the boat sank and Bret went into the river with it. He had a life jacket underneath the Gimli armor but for some reason it didn't inflate so Orlando grabbed Bret and yanked him out of the water. He was okay, thankfully but it could have gone really bad.
I knew a dude who was so good with a canoe. Once him and his best friend at the time started to race two others. After leading by nine boat lengths. The friend in front of the winning boat stopped paddling. And away they went...
I just realized that the same actor plays both Legolas and Will Turner. I don't know what to do with this information

lesser known "half" brother to that guy who got eaten by that big, famous shark. Also becoming a "half" brother, inspiring the line "You complete me", used many years later.

To be fair, Orlando's clearly getting his words in a happy muddle, the subs are very good, considering.
you do not row a canoe you paddle it
I met vigo picking food out of the 99 cent store dumpster just like me. True story. He's a cool dude
