When Nordberg was stuck under the cars.


It would not be so bad sticking out of the back of one and being drug, BUT when he was sticking out of the front, can you IMMAGINE what it would to do you if you let your feet down and they got caught the road caught them, and grabed them under!!!!

That scene has always made my skin crawl, just thinking all he had to do was let his feet touch the ground and and he would be rolled up into a ball and every boen in his body broken!!!

Actually no, I think he was lying on a rolling thing with wheels, kind of like a big skateboard. Remember when he was sliding down the hill after he slid out from under Hector Savage's truck, before he got caught under Frank and Ed's car? Or when he first got under Savage's truck? It was obvious he was lying on something with wheels.

It's the funniest scene in the entire trilogy for me!

I wish I could find that clip on YouTube.

Yes, he was, so he wasn't just on the ground being dragged along, which might not have been so bad considering Simpson now.

The bit was just being funny in seeing Nordberg, played by Simpson, getting beat up. Of course, today it is a lot different considering Simpson's scandals. Now you'd want to see every bone in his body broken. Also, when he is under the van bugging it or trying to, there is cut footage of oil getting on his face, which is why in one shot his face has oil on it.
