This scene is incredible, well done, accurate and terrifying.

Still shocks.

It sure is!

yes, it is.
The sad thing about it is, that we are never ever going to see sth like that again.
Any kind of visual effects are done by computers which don't look real at all.

As opposed to what, small scale models and stop frame animation?

Well technically, Chris Nolan did use those exact kind of practical effects for the Dark Knight Trilogy: miniatures and scale models.

It traumatised me, but my peers at college laughed when I mentioned it.
