10 More Most Paused Star Wars Moments

2. Yoda Wants Luke to CONCENTRATE - Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back

And now for something a little less serious, we have the hilarious moment in Empire when Yoda sits on top of Luke while he performs a handstand and attempts to move some rocks with the Force.

Luke eventually loses his focus, causing the rocks to fall over and Luke to lose his balance, taking Yoda to the ground with him. As Yoda falls, though, he shouts "Concentrate!" as his face bares a terrified, bug-eyed expression.

For a few frames, we get to see Yoda at his most visibly, hilariously demented - eyes about ready to pop out of their sockets as he realises he's on a collision course with the ground.

While the original trilogy has its fair share of unintentionally goofy puppetry shots of Yoda, this one was obviously absolutely intended, and ridiculous enough that you'll definitely want to take a more prolonged peek.
