In this scene of The Dark Knight (2008), Heath Ledger performed the stunt himself, insisting that the real danger needed to show on his face. Director Christopher Nolan relied on real-world stunts over CGI, filming with IMAX cameras and a physical Batpod for stronger impact. The Batpod, a fully functional vehicle, bursts from the wrecked Tumbler in a practical shot. Ledger stayed in character throughtout shooting days, and this “hit me” line was improvised by him on the spot.
