'The Unofficial Science Of…' returns with two new Sky Max specials this December

For over four decades Die Hard and Indiana Jones have captivated audiences with jaw-dropping action sequences and thrilling adventures, but could you survive some of the infamous stunts in these films? The Unofficial Science Of… returns to Sky Max with two new specials: The Unofficial Science of Die Hard and The Unofficial Science of Indiana Jones.

This Christmas, Chris Ramsey and Paul Chowdhry, alongside engineer Zoe Laughlin, will scientifically assess stunts from much-loved Christmas action film, Die Hard. From rooftop escapes to walking over shattered glass, Chris and Paul will put the stunts to the test to discover how to tackle them in real life. Along the way, the pair will set out to answer the biggest question of all: is Die Hard a Christmas film?

Coming soon to Sky Max, Greg James and Maisie Adam team up to take on family favourite, Indiana Jones. Join the pair as they learn how to dodge poisonous darts, outrun giant boulders, and survive fireballs.

Whilst both duos explore the stunts of the films, Alex Brooker returns to explore the sets and meet iconic cast members to hear their favourite on-set memories.
