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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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...
