Coronation Street Tram Crash
Discussion
I have no interest in soaps normally, but this was on in the background at work and I accidentally saw it.
Boy, am I glad I did!
That was, without doubt, some of the worst special effects I have seen for many, many years!
Their cunning insertion of the clip of a model tram falling off a table really made me laugh.
Thanks, ITV

I realise they're probably playing with somewhat limited budgets.... but

hahahahahahaah that is terrible!
my fave part is where the back end of the tram flies up into the air, makes a godzilla kind of noise than slams down onto the house, which makes a woman scream and some baked beans fall off a shelf.
runner up for me was how the tram had zero flex, even when hitting the floor
seriously some people need sacking for making something so bad and allowing it to be aired.

That made me laugh too hard, why did it make the Godzilla noise and come down like something out of the 1980 Jurassic Park films, terrible.my fave part is where the back end of the tram flies up into the air, makes a godzilla kind of noise than slams down onto the house, which makes a woman scream and some baked beans fall off a shelf.

The driver scrambling across his cabin, to the stop button? What.
The terrible head on view of the tram coming towards the gap.. Too fake.
The graphics really were bad. I heard they were spending a million quid on this one episode so I thought yeah I'll watch that, haven't watched it in a while but this'll be good as thats quite some money. Jesus, it was terrible.
I think they must have spent the million quid on the advert they've been running up to this, flashing between the happy music sun shining coronation street people and the night time ambulances and screaming. Then they realised they had to film the crash so they got a model train set out.
They should have used the original footage - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfJ1g2_wE4Y
You can see where they got the idea from
