Harry Potter: Behind The Filming Of Underwater Scenes

video description

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2

When the incredible Harry Potter team brought the movies to life, they had a lot to live up to, and luckily when it came to all the underwater scenes that happen throughout the series, they succeeded. It looked incredible in the final cuts, but the process to get there was far from easy as actors faced freezing temperatures and tricky logistics. Daniel Radcliffe actually got two ear infections while filming for the Triwizard tournament while Rupert Grint was concerned his heart was going to stop after being dropped into freezing water! The Victor Krum actor actually had to overcome a major phobia of deep water while filming his parts and Cedric Diggory actor Robert Pattinson was totally disoriented, unaware of what direction he was facing or how the scene was meant to look. None of these scenes would have been possible without the incredible crew who built the largest underwater filming tank in all of Europe it could hold half a million liters of water! Unfortunately, the tank wasnt heated making it a notsopleasant experience for the performers. It was quite the test of endurance since Radcliffe spent a full six weeks filming underwater scenes and six months of training prior. Luckily the Harry Potter actor had a secret underwater escape as well where he could be dry while underwater! As if the filming days werent long enough, Radcliffe needed to have an hour and a half worth of silicone prosthetics done before shooting. The creation of these incredible scenes was thanks to brilliant work from every team member and its clear not one person didn't give it their all!

Are there any other behind the scenes with a cast member having to scuba dive for an underwater scene in other movies, whether if there character was scuba diving or like how Daniel Radcliffe's was here?

So Daniel Radcliffe is a terrible swimmer and driver as he can't swim properly he can't drive cars properly either so he trained to become a better swimmer but still terrible at driving vehicles
