Have you ever wondered where the training scenes from Rocky IV were filmed at? I made the journey, matching up shots and doing my best to get as close as possible to some of the more elusive (and dangerous) locations that Sylvester Stallone bravely conquered as Rocky Balboa in his quest to become strong enough to defeat the human monster Ivan Drago.

@pixiepower684 2 года назад

2022 has been an awesome refreshing resurrection period for Cinemassacre, with James being able to put more heart and creativity into his work compared to the last few years, and this might just be the ultimate highlight! After watching this, I have an itch to get back to some serious personal filmmaking, so cheers to you James! (Side note, Sly Stallone is technically aware of James' existence and that's rad!)

Don't worry about not making it to the top, do you think that Stallone actually climbed it??? Heck no! He more than likely had a helicopter drop him at the peak for the shot and then take him to the safer location. So no worries

@ConstantineFurman 2 года назад

If it makes you feel any better James, that's not Stallone on top of the mountain in the helicopter shot. Stallone has an aversion to heights and had a double/stuntman stand in for him for that shot. So Sly didn't go up there either. Also, Rocky seems to fight on Christmas in "Rocky V."

@JTCurtisMusic 2 года назад

I do love the “What were they thinking” reference, but as someone who has climbed mountains before, I can tell you it’s not as simple as just bringing climbing equipment. Any pro doc you’ve seen with dangerous mountain climbs are skilled climbers with skilled cameramen and have worked out thousands of dollars of insurance. This was two fans finding filming locations. I’d say they did quite well.

It seems crazy but I get it, recently I went climbing a mountain near where I live and I always thought “well what’s the point of climbing gear it’s not that big” half way up I had almost died like 6 times and my legs were killing me so I turned back thinking about how if I wouldn’t have worn shoes with HOLES in them I could have made it further

What disqualifies it from being a documentary? In the description it is described as a documentary, so even if this didn't qualify as a documentary, or part of a series of videos in a Rocky film franchise shooting locations documentary, some would likely still refer to it as a documentary because of the video's description.

@DougWIngate 3 месяца назад

Some people grow up pronouncing a word incorrectly at childhood and it just sticks with them into adulthood. I knew somebody who said "comparishon" instead of comparison and shasm instead of chasm. He didnt even think about that he was pronouncing it wrong, just "that's how I've always said it"
