Torches in movies vs reality

submitted by daxgaz

from You Tube:
About the drawbacks of using torches outdoors. In the films, torches are ubiquitous. In reality, less so.

One very cold and dark night, I shot this, and enough for another couple of videos. When I am not presenting to a camera at night, and so don't have to worry about lighting my face, I do not have to keep adjusting my hood.

One of my favorite youtuber's... Lindybeige.

great video that makes some good points! wish he had included a few film clips of mistaken portrayals of torches in movies rather than just talking about it though

I've always had it in for torches in movies. No one realizes that torches just don't work like that. Other than being a plot device, they're a waste of time.
