For those who watched the movie, there is a scene where Eric Draven's character (played by Bruce Lee's son Brandon Lee) shoots a shotgun full of rings into the store full of gasoline. The next shot is explosively well captured (esp. the rings coming out of the shotgun). I also find it impressive that Eric Draven's character is standing in front of the explosion absorbing it all.
Back then, I always thought it was a dedicated stuntman who got engulfed in flames there since it looks so realistic. But now I'm looking back it as I'm older, I'm conflicted. Was there an actual stuntman that actually took the full force of the explosion (with safety measures), CGI, or a potential dummy? It looks too realistic to me for it be CGI or a dummy.
Also if anyone could source any confirmations for any of those options that would also be good.
