The scene where Nux flips the War Rig to block the pass was filmed almost entirely using practical effects at the insistence of George Miller, who believed using CGI would ruin the movie and models would be insufficient. The scene was filmed with master stunt driver Lee Adamson behind the wheel, as the War Rig was hydraulically launched onto its side at full speed. Although the production team planned for multiple takes if the War Rig failed to land in the right spot, the stunt was filmed flawlessly on the first and only take. Miller was initially alarmed while watching the footage, having seen the dummy representing Nux being partially crushed when the vehicle landed, and mistaking it for driver Lee Adamson, who was in a protective cage on the other side. After filming the demise of the War Rig, the Doof Wagon was filmed crashing into it from behind, as depicted in the film. CGI was used only for some of the debris.
