The movie itself was not a bomb of course, thanks in part to stunts like this where Keanu was slowly fed under a moving bus like someone was fishing for devil’s concubines. No, not that public transportation is a cheaper, more environmentally-friendly alternative to driving. Riding Under a Moving Bus in SpeedĪ few years later Keanu would feel like a freak on a leash in 1994’s Speed, about a bus in Los Angeles carrying an explosive secret. Keanu learned to surf for the film and… look, we’re mostly in awe that Keanu wasn’t already a surfer somehow. Keanu may have left the actual skydiving to plane-leaping enthusiast Patrick Swayze in 1991’s Point Break, but surfing – man, those tasty waves became Johnny Utah’s Hang 10 hobby both on and off screen.

In the movie's patently absurd climax, Johnny Utah jumps out of an airborne plane with no parachute, catches Bodhi while he's skydiving down to the desert below (similar to the opening of Moonraker), and holds his own revolver on him. This scene was parodied in the film Hot Fuzz.

In one of the film's most memorable scenes, Utah rolls onto his back and empties his P226 into the air after he is unwilling to shoot Bodhi ( Patrick Swayze) and lets him escape. At the time Point Break was filmed, the P226 and the more compact SIG-Sauer P228 were just coming into service as the new FBI-issue sidearms, after the 10mm Smith & Wesson 1076 proved to be too unwieldy for the Bureau's purposes.
