I had a Norge refrigerator that my parents bought in 1953. As of 2023 it was still working. The only thing it ever needed was a new bulb inside which I replaced two years ago. and a new power cord. I finally got rid of it because it wasn't energy efficient at all. Had it recycled and received $75 from the power company. It was bomb proof and heavy. I don't think it was lead lined though.
That model was impossible to open from the inside. In the past several children died while being stuck inside that refrigerator. I guess now another way to open it is to have atomic bomb blow up next to it.
When this first came out, I had no idea about the nuclear test sites of the 50s so seeing a town full of nothing but mannequins was extremely unnerving to me. Then watching them burn to a crisp from the nuke just added on to it
If you want to do some research into the grim topic, this was operation CUE, officially APPLE-2, the only shot where the Civil Defense was directly involved in the survey of civilian structures exposed to the full effects of a nuclear test. The remains still stand to this day, and are part of the Nevada National Security Site tour. No cameras, phones, or binoculars, please. No rock collecting while on site either. You might get a "hot rock".
@@GarretGrayCamera They did do just that. Plus emergency rations in which they served to the Civil Defense personnel for lunch. There is a film on YT here someplace of Operation CUE.
Yep. Several types of buildings built with different materials. Clothed mannequins with different types of clothing. Even different types of bomb shelters to see how they would withstand the effects of the bomb. You can see the craters on Google maps in the test area in Nevada.

Setting aside the silly refrigerator bit, this is probably one of the best depictions of a nuclear explosion you'll see on the big screen. The bright flash from gamma rays, followed by the intense heat and shockwave, is portrayed with a realism that surpasses even Oppenheimer. Seriously, it's that good.
@@mikearchibald744 Nah, he didn't use the fridge, because he figured kids would try to emulate it, and get locked inside, as many fridges of the time did not have a way for you to open it from the inside, it actually latched shut.
To anyone that says this scene is stupidly unrealistic and out of place in an Indiana Jones movie, I'd just like to remind you of the scene in Last Crusade where a plane flies into a tunnel, loses its wings, skids the entire length of the tunnel without stopping (and without hitting the car being driven by Indy and Henry), and then explodes at the moment it emerges from the tunnel.

The scene with the nuclear explosion is the definition that it's not the World War 2 setting that we are all accustomed to in Indiana Jones Indy has now entered the Cold War era
using rubber life boat as parachuting, in the temple of doom: nobody complains. survive nuke using refrigerator in crystal skull: everybody get triggered
..but let's not forget surviving the spirits of the Ark of the Covenant, being Hypnotized by an Indian witch doctor in possession of magical stones, using a divine chalice to heal his father, and all the time managing to keep his hat ;)
Had the refrigerator just been knocked over and set on fire, I could have forgiven the film, but he was also flung half a mile through the air. And it has already been established that he needs a rubber life boat to survive that!
That would be so unexpected lol. The audience just watched a dramatic nuclear explosion, no background music, pure carnage, and then boom, some guy pops out of a fridge and sees a marmot.
This is up there with the best explosion scenes in cinema history! With, Angels & Demons Antimatter explosion, Rouge One Death star, and Deep water Horizon scenes as total Honorable mentions. With swordfish and godzilla minus one being #1.
I suppose drinking from the holy grail also protects one from massive repeated blunt force trauma, insane accelerative g-forces. Let's do the math. That car fled the scene for a total of 54 seconds at lets say a rough average of 50mph which means it covered 0.75 miles from doctor jones. That 0.75 miles is covered by the jones fridge in 6 seconds, from blastwave hitting the house to the fridge flying over the car. To cover that distance in that time requires an average fridge velocity of 450mph. An atomic blast wave will provide near instantaneous acceleration given the insane force behind it. Let's be nice and say the accel duration was 0.1 secs. That's a 250g acceleration. Sorry gang but doctor jones is now a liquid.
that the movie began with an impossible suspension of disbelief really set the tone. and then he climbs up the hill to what, sunbathe?? in an atomic shadow?? fucking ridiculous
I was an extra in Twisters for the tornado damaged town Crystal Springs. I did some takes where I was looking through rubble in front of a house. There was a washing machine in the yard, and I thought it would have been a great tribute to Indiana Jones by getting out of the washing machine, giving the appearance it was used to survive the tornado.
Everyone complained about this scene as If nothing crazy ever happened In indianajones before Jumping out of a plane Hanging under a truck Escaping a giant boulder Black magic and voodoo Immortality Ghosts Why is a nuclear blast any more extreme?

That appears to have been a tribute to 1963's "Doctor Strangelove," where Slim Pickens rides a nuclear bomb (like a bucking bronco) from his B-52 bomber to a Russian target at the end of the film. I believe his was inscribed "HI THERE."
Lead does not protect you from the secondary impacts he experienced. Half of his bones should be broken and he should be suffering massive internal injuries if it happened for real. Refrigerators can be tough but not the human body.
@@jaylenhioe2868 I did. But the lead is not why he survived. Radiation or not he was as good as a dead man from blunt force injury. All bull anyway. The only lead-lined refrigerators made then and now are for laboratories to store radioactive materials. No home ever had a lead-lined fridge. Worst Indianna Jones movie ever.
I would totally believe things inside that refrigerator survived an atomic blast. I would not believe it being thrown around like a popcorn and he still manages to walk out of it intact.
But you weren't confused how the writers thought it possible he could survive falling out of a plane and landing inside an inflatable raft? or flying off a cliff in a tank? Indiana Jones was surviving non-survivable situations from the beginning. I don't understand why people suddenly took issue with it when this movie came out.
For those wondering, the voice you hear over the loudspeaker when Indy runs out of the house is Dale Dye I believe. You may know him from Band of Brothers where he portrayed Col Robert Sink.
Yeah, Raiders of the Lost Ark or Temple of Doom already showed us that. Indy was surviving non-survivable situations since the beginning. I don't know why people suddenly took issue with it in Crystal Skull. These are action-adventure movies with elements of fantasy and sci-fi. They were never meant to be realistic.
2:06 The refrigerator tumbling and bouncing may have been inspired by a Chuck Jones Roadrunner cartoon called "Wild About Hurry." Wile E. Coyote enters an "Indestructo" steel ball which rolls him through multiple mishaps. Spielberg is such an admirer of Jones' cartoons that it was a given Indy's surname would be something other than Smith.
Hey, around the 3:45 mark in the video, Indiana Jones shares an interesting perspective on a 1947 Air Force incident, mentioning wreckage and mutilated bodies. I even turned on the captions and slowed down the video to catch the full story.
@@nowayelijah He mentioned being pulled by the military to a mysterious crash site in New Mexico back in 1947, where he saw strange debris and what appeared to be body parts.
don’t know if this is a joke or not, but apparently, even if the fridges did work, they weren’t able to be opened from the inside, so they’d end up dying either way
I know its not the same era and appliance. But the house I brought in 2008 has a dryer from the early 1970s..It's 2024 and dryer still works. Drys clothes like it's a tip top machine, only have to replace a rubber gasket that breaks once in a while
I love to go to estate sales as we call them in pennsylvania. You always see a washer and dryer from the 70s. Mabey earlier for sale. And still working.
That's why I love Indiana Jones.He is not interested in the realism of physical actions, his main goal is to be fun and immersive. This is a cartoonish adventure in live-action. It was always like this. Also the Crystal Skull > Dial. I like the cold-war paranoia, the red scare pointing fingers at the witch hunt. In 2008, The Dark Knight grossed $ 1 billion, while the box office of this film was $ 800 million. So it was pretty good at the box office.
I can agree that this movie was good but I just think most people were just being a bit too mean to it hence nowadays it’s received a lot more love than hate because of dial of destiny
Around the time this movie came out in theaters, I was learning about this time period in my high school history class. A few days after I had seen the movie in theaters, we learned about how the government built fake towns just like this in the desert for nuclear testing. After class was over, I told my teacher that Indy stumbled onto one of those towns in the new movie. When I told him how Indy survived, he laughed and said "Only Indiana Jones." 😂
@Gabriel-rp2pc yeah it also didn't help that when I watched Dial of Destiny at the cinema, it was so loud it was giving me tinnitus, I kept getting dizzy
There is an episode of Film Theory that says this is impossible. The refrigerator of the era is airtight and can't be opened from the inside. It was redesigned after too many kids used it to play hide-and-seek and lost.
This scene never worked for me because although I know lead can block radiation it also has a low melting temperature. He would have crashed looking like he was frozen in Carbonite.
@@rimasmuliolis1136 Think about what a refrigerator is for, though. It's meant to keep its interior cold which means that it has to have good insulation. I'm not saying that the refrigerator could survive a nuclear bomb but it's not like it was made of pure lead. I'm not sure why a refrigerator would be lead-lined either.
As Cooper Howard says in Fallout TV Show, if the mushroom cloud is under your thumb, then your safe. But if it’s over your thumb. Then just don’t worry about it.
It's interesting how Temple of Doom was considered the worst one until Crystal Skull came out. Then Crystal Skull was considered the worst one until Dial of Destiny came out. I find it ridiculous and tiresome how people hate something and then suddenly look back and decide it "wasn't that bad" when something they consider even worse gets made. It takes another movie to make people realize that something was never as bad as they thought it was. Their hatred was never warranted.
Crystal skull wasn’t even that bad. I actually really enjoyed this movie. In my opinion they’re all good except the dial of destiny. That movie was booty cheeks
Not seen this movie in a lot of years, got this video as recommended to me and ... that's the janitor! The tall agent at the end is the janitor from Scrubs!
I remember watching the South Park that referenced this, having not seen the movie yet, and making comments as to "That scene with Indy in the refrigerator." I didn't understand....until I saw it myself.
@glittle2023 A chest freezer the opening door, some using a slide door, a cover door, usually did not tight closing as a refrigerator, especially of 50s American made brands like General Motor. Since it is a top opening design.
@glenrich-uu9zr I was thinking that due to the one I had that is from a similar time that has 1 inch thick walls and the lid protrudes downwards, that it would be decent as compared to a fridge just due to how beefy it is.
@@glittle2023 "1 inch thick" reminds the golden era of American manufacturing quality. You're right , the test field must use the same criteria of home appliances. So if it was a chest freezer, it would be as stronghold as a refrigerator, a long time trust company as one you have.
@glenrich-uu9zr Old appliances can take a lot before giving up. That freezer has been in my house at least since 1970, and it definitely could survive a nuclear blast.
Just imagine if Tom Cruise did this movie. He would've wanted a real nuclear bomb for this scene 🤣

I don't even know why people in the 50s were bothering with bunkers. Everyone had a fridge to take refuge in.
don’t know if this is a joke or not, but apparently, even if the fridges did work, they weren’t able to be opened from the inside, so they’d end up dying either way
Grandma would say, They dont make no fridges like this anymore 😁
Even if Indy did survive, he probably would’ve broken a couple of bones.
For me, Best Scene of the Entire Film. (Low Key) House of Wax Vibes..
Today, my cat can open my fridge with just a paw swipe.
I know its not the same era and appliance. But the house I brought in 2008 has a dryer from the early 1970s..It's 2024 and dryer still works. Drys clothes like it's a tip top machine, only have to replace a rubber gasket that breaks once in a while
Yes, we have original washer and dryer from our house, 1978. They are very easy to fix.
I love to go to estate sales as we call them in pennsylvania. You always see a washer and dryer from the 70s. Mabey earlier for sale. And still working.
I still use my grandparents' fridge and freezer from 1981. It was repaired once in 1986.
I feel like this scene inspired Call of Duty B01 nuke town map
Everytime I watch this scene the black ops 1 multiplayer theme plays in my head
Imagine jumping the shark so bad they replace it with "nuking the fridge"
That's why I love Indiana Jones.He is not interested in the realism of physical actions, his main goal is to be fun and immersive. This is a cartoonish adventure in live-action. It was always like this. Also the Crystal Skull > Dial. I like the cold-war paranoia, the red scare pointing fingers at the witch hunt. In 2008, The Dark Knight grossed $ 1 billion, while the box office of this film was $ 800 million. So it was pretty good at the box office.
“I got a bad feeling about this…”
I love this movie, the popular reasons for hating it are so stupid !!
This movie was awful.
@@badgerattoadhall it may not be good, but at least it still has adventure and spirit to it
I can agree that this movie was good but I just think most people were just being a bit too mean to it hence nowadays it’s received a lot more love than hate because of dial of destiny
@@jackjohnston1298i thought Dial of Destiny was better than this.
@@Snowflame512 well I personally think they are both just as good
Around the time this movie came out in theaters, I was learning about this time period in my high school history class. A few days after I had seen the movie in theaters, we learned about how the government built fake towns just like this in the desert for nuclear testing. After class was over, I told my teacher that Indy stumbled onto one of those towns in the new movie. When I told him how Indy survived, he laughed and said "Only Indiana Jones." 😂
Best way to survive any situation is be the cameraman.
Pretty good TV signal for being in the middle of nowhere.
1:51 if you travel back to the 50's and show People Independence Day... must be the same TV Experience for them.
Atleast dial of destiny was so bad, it made this movie look better
I never really thought this movie was bad, and Dial just vindicated me.
I always enjoyed the 4th movie, but Dial of Destiny really sucked
@Gabriel-rp2pc yeah it also didn't help that when I watched Dial of Destiny at the cinema, it was so loud it was giving me tinnitus, I kept getting dizzy
There is an episode of Film Theory that says this is impossible. The refrigerator of the era is airtight and can't be opened from the inside. It was redesigned after too many kids used it to play hide-and-seek and lost.
Unless the rough landing tore way the hinges & weakened the door enough to where Indy CULD actually push it open. :-)
This scene never worked for me because although I know lead can block radiation it also has a low melting temperature. He would have crashed looking like he was frozen in Carbonite.
@@rimasmuliolis1136 Think about what a refrigerator is for, though. It's meant to keep its interior cold which means that it has to have good insulation. I'm not saying that the refrigerator could survive a nuclear bomb but it's not like it was made of pure lead. I'm not sure why a refrigerator would be lead-lined either.
@@potato7ate913 lead was used for a disappointing amount of things before and after it was realised to be poisonous.
Technically they won the game, they just lost some other game.
Love that fridge. They don't make em like they used to.
The man doing the countdown has to be Dale Dye
As Cooper Howard says in Fallout TV Show, if the mushroom cloud is under your thumb, then your safe. But if it’s over your thumb. Then just don’t worry about it.
New Mexico and aliens are a natural fit. Roswell, The Man Who Fell To Earth, Paul, Thor...
Love how they went out of their way to put in a functioning television for dummies in nuclear test site. Tax dollars at work
Maybe he just died and everything that comes after this is Indy living hell, not just the audience?
Brutal 😂😂😂
Never thought this movie was bad and Dial just vindicated me.
You are just lowering the bar.
Don’t care what anyone says about this movie. It’s one of the most fun Indiana Jones movies.
And now we get to witness this test site in Black Ops series.
Thank you Treyarch.
And people said this would always be the worst one
Thanks, Dial of Destiny!
It's interesting how Temple of Doom was considered the worst one until Crystal Skull came out. Then Crystal Skull was considered the worst one until Dial of Destiny came out. I find it ridiculous and tiresome how people hate something and then suddenly look back and decide it "wasn't that bad" when something they consider even worse gets made. It takes another movie to make people realize that something was never as bad as they thought it was. Their hatred was never warranted.
Crystal skull wasn’t even that bad. I actually really enjoyed this movie. In my opinion they’re all good except the dial of destiny. That movie was booty cheeks
Cod nuketown😮 1:22
Apart from going into the lead refrigerator, he also consumed Radaway and Rad-X 😂😂😂
Not seen this movie in a lot of years, got this video as recommended to me and ... that's the janitor!
The tall agent at the end is the janitor from Scrubs!
Haha, I found that refrigerator in Fallout!
I love this movie! Indiana finds his alien counterpart! Aliens are archeologically motivated! Good story line and great writing.
thats hollywood for you, no radiation, no donuts,...lol
For the worst movie, this is arguably one of the greatest scenes in the entire franchise.
I remember watching this scene in the Lego game as a kid and being really confused.
I remember watching the South Park that referenced this, having not seen the movie yet, and making comments as to "That scene with Indy in the refrigerator."
I didn't understand....until I saw it myself.
Unfortunately, they don't make refrigerators like this anymore...good stuff :)
I remember this scene was widely ridiculed by critics when it came out but it’s part of the goofiness of the character!
The innocent are always "of great interest" to those with no imagination.
crazy how nuketown was based off this
Oddly enough the explosion itself is incredibly accurate, it’s his survival that’s not
This scene is so particular but it works for me
Luckily that this house was not using
chest freezer or wine cooler, but a
traditional refrigerator.
A chest freezer would have worked better. I think.
@glittle2023
A chest freezer the opening door,
some using a slide door, a cover
door, usually did not tight closing
as a refrigerator, especially of 50s
American made brands like General
Motor. Since it is a top opening design.
@glenrich-uu9zr I was thinking that due to the one I had that is from a similar time that has 1 inch thick walls and the lid protrudes downwards, that it would be decent as compared to a fridge just due to how beefy it is.
@@glittle2023
"1 inch thick" reminds the golden era
of American manufacturing quality.
You're right , the test field must use
the same criteria of home appliances.
So if it was a chest freezer, it would be
as stronghold as a refrigerator, a long
time trust company as one you have.
@glenrich-uu9zr Old appliances can take a lot before giving up. That freezer has been in my house at least since 1970, and it definitely could survive a nuclear blast.
Another example of the witch hunts of the red scare at its finest.
Considering how many communists now infect many institutions in this country, that fear was warranted.
witch hunt.. you serious? lol the 2 almost went into a nuclear war you forgot that part?
@iiiDartsiii I meant with regard to how those feds just barged in their and blatantly accused Jones of being a collaborator and a traitor.
Absolutely great scene
This is the definition of plot armor
The only Indiana Jones/Oppenheimer crossover
