Working on a movie is usually never easy; there are always both pleasant and nervous moments on the set. Mike Dawson, handled special effects on the set of Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade, when he received a "threat" from an annoyed Connery.

Dawson recently hosted a podcast titled The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, where he revealed more about the aforementioned actor's behavior during the filming of the tank scene.

At the time, the SFX technician had to prepare the smoke that would billow around the interior of the tank. This effect was based on oil and gas, making the source itself very hot. On the first take, it got too close to Connery, which the actor felt.

Before the next take was repeated, Dawson was given a blunt warning. As the technician recalls:

Below you can watch the tank scene in question, which was featured in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade debuting in theaters in 1989. Recall that Sean Connery himself passed away at the end of October 2020. One of the last movies in which the actor starred was The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen from 2003.
