10 Surprisingly Realistic Movie Scenes Nobody Saw Coming
8. Climbing 22 Flights Of Stairs Is Exhausting - Ghostbusters
Ghostbusters climaxes with the heroes ascending 550 Central Park West aka the Shandor Building - the apartment complex where Gozer the Gozerian (Slavitza Jovan) has been summoned to bring about the apocalypse.
The Ghostbusters are cheered on as they enter the building to do heroic battle, but due to the elevators not working, they're forced to climb all twenty-two flights of stairs to reach the roof the hard way.
This results in a brilliant comedy cut to the quartet sluggishly ambling their way up the stairs - a quite realistic outcome for a group of guys also lugging proton packs the entire way, given that even the prop versions of the packs weigh around 30 pounds.
To top it all off, Peter Venkman (Bill Murray) then tells his colleagues that he needs to throw up, which again makes sense considering the immense physical exertion involved.
