Scoop: ‘The Dark Knight’ Preps For First-Ever Explosive Stunt

Submitted by HollywoodChicago.com on July 24, 2007 - 3:44pm.

I just received a scoop about “The Dark Knight” from a reader who goes by “Secret Scoop”:

There will be a big “The Dark Knight” stunt on Thursday after midnight and into Friday morning at the Wacker and Wells area in Chicago.

A 52-foot semi trailer and tractor will be blown end over end. It is the first time this has ever been done in a movie and is one of the largest stunts in the film!

A friend works on the film and he just told me about it.
