Sky do you know the true origin on that scene? Originally there was going to be a big Saber vs. Whip fight but Ford (and most of the crew) at a bout of food poisoning and was unable to do any major stunts. So Ford suggested to Spielberg that he just shoot the guy and that was what ended up being filmed.

Yes I know that background story for that scene. I even was about to tell it, but said to myself "what for...".

Yep! He was pissed. In an interview I read once they said in the first take were Indy shoots him he took five minutes to die.

EDIT: Speaking of the Gunny anyone see his new Geico commercial?
