Most far-fetched moment in the film
OK, I love DIE HARD, mostly because McClane's antics are mostly believable, and he bleeds, gets injured, shot... he's a regular guy. But there are a couple of eye-rolling moments where you do remember you're watching an action movie and not real life. To me, the moment requiring the biggest suspension of disbelief is when McClane is climbing down the elevator shaft and the gun strap snaps off. He somehow grabs on to one of the ventilation shaft holes to prevent falling to his death. That's implausible enough, but if you look at the height of the hole he grabs, can anyone explain how he pulls himself into it?!? It's maybe a foot tall, and he's hanging by his fingertips, so without something to grab on to further inside the hole, how does he manage to pull himself up and inside the tiny vent?!? Seems impossible! Think about it...
Too nitpicky? Anyone have even less-believable scenes that kind of take them out of the movie?
