: Someone mentioned earlier how they noticed a square area on the bag that looked different. I never noticed it but I thought you all would be interested in this tidbit:

: From Interview with GEORGE GIBBS
: Mechanical Effects Supervisor:

: "There's a small scene when the sacred stones burn their way through Indy's shoulder bag. We contrived things so that the stones would actually glow and appear to burn their way through the bag. First we cut a panel out of the bag and replaced it with nitrated paper painted the same color. The stones are lit by very powerful quartz bulbs inside. They start glowing through the paper and then we fire a switch to light the paper and the glowing stones drop out. It's simple when you know how, isn't it?"

Yes, I have read that. It is from the Official Indiana Jones
and the Temple of Doom Collectors . BUT, did you ever
notice the bag in the wide shot immediately following Ram's
fall? The bag is perfect- no burn hole!!! :)
