The Dark Knight (2008) — directed by Christopher Nolan

In this scene of The Dark Knight (2008), Heath Ledger performed the stunt himself, insisting that the real danger needed to show on his face. Director Christopher Nolan relied on real-world stunts over CGI, filming with IMAX cameras and a physical Batpod for stronger impact. The Batpod, a fully functional vehicle, bursts from the wrecked Tumbler in a practical shot. Ledger stayed in character throughtout shooting days, and this “hit me” line was improvised by him on the spot.
