Despite various and numerous attempts, the props and effects departments could not get the Splurge guns to fire the cream mixture safely. They tried wrapping it in wax balls and tested it out on production manager Garth Thomas, who was well over six feet tall and weighed about 20 stone. Director Alan Parker fired the gun at Thomas and it hit him in the forehead knocking him off his feet and leaving a huge red mark on his skin, due to its velocity. In the end, the guns just fired ping pong balls and with careful editing the shot would cut to the target who would then have the cream thrown at them by Parker and other crew members.
