The movie's first major action sequence also happens to be its best, when Dante lures Dom and his crew to Rome, where Dante plans to detonate a spherical neutron bomb at The Vatican.

"We're going to Hell," Dante quips as the bomb rolls around the city's streets, all while the Family desperately attempts to bring it to a stop before it can reach its historically significant destination.

Things only get hairier once the bomb obliterates a gas pump and gets set on fire, almost killing Little Nobody (Scott Eastwood) in the process.

After a lengthy chase, Dom finally manages to avert disaster by driving into a crane, which catapults a giant concrete block into the bomb's path, diverting it into the River Tiber, where it detonates.

According to news reports the blast causes zero casualties - a tough statistic to believe given the sheer size and might of the explosion.
