Roughly half-way through the movie, Wolverine catches Rogue (Anna Paquin) on a train and convinces her to return to the X-Mansion, just as Magneto interrupts them by ripping open the train car.

On set, Jackman believed that he would simply see the train car's front door be pulled off, but in actual fact, the carriage was rigged with hydraulics which saw a major chunk of it ripped apart as Magneto made his entrance.

As such, the shock and fear on Jackman's face is totally real, given how he had no idea he was about to witness so much up close and personal carnage.
