There is a scene where a line of bowmen shoot hundreds of arrows into the air and they fall into the back of the escaped slave, who falls backward and the weight of his body is supported by them, the imagery being he is on a bed of nails with dozens of foot-long arrows. Tarsem got the idea for this scene from Bhishma's death as mentioned in the epic Mahabharata.
