How did Ra's Al Ghul get up the mountain?


Bruce has quite the adventure climbing up to the top.

Yet when he gets there Ra's Al Ghul has already arrived and is looking fresh...

Better training

Plot hole

He'd been there for years. He probably knew exactly how to get there. May have even had a secret path.

A secret path up a mountain? Maybe a deleted scene? Sounds like a plot hole to me

reply

Yeah, I've got to say a "secret path" seems unlikely. Doesnt it use some sort of pull back shot behind Bruce to show us he's basically got to climb over a glacier?

Plus - I can't remember this exactly - but doesn't Ra's tell him to come up the night before when they're having a couple of ales in the tavern? Bruce heads off first thing in the morning, meaning Ra's must have climbed the treacherous mountain during the night to have got there first!

Chair lift.

Ra's al Ghul's secret express Gondola bypasses the glacier ice fields and goes straight up to the mountain top.
