9. The Dark Knight
In the middle of his reign of terror over Gotham City, Heath Ledger’s Joker blows up a hospital. On his way out the door, he blows the detonator. Unfortunately, after an initial small explosion, the rest of the setup fails to go off. The Joker taps on the detonator for a few moments before the rest of the pyrotechnics go off. Film director Christopher Nolan intended for the entire hospital to go up when Ledger initially tapped the button, but a technical issue delayed the explosion. Ledger decided to stick around in front of the camera and try to “work out the issue” in character.
