Bill Paxton Gives TOUR of Twister’s Destruction Sets (Flashback)

‘Twister’ turns 25! Back in 1996, Bill Paxton walked ET through the destruction sets of the tornado thriller. The late actor and Helen Hunt drove through a house in one memorable scene, and he literally climbs onto the upside-down floors to give the tour! Between flying cows, a horrible night at the drive-in theater and exploding tanker trucks, audiences hadn’t been this frightened of the weather phenomena since ‘The Wizard of Oz.’ While making the movie, Paxton said he realized that ‘Twister’ might do for tornadoes what ‘Jaws’ did for sharks. He also pitched his idea for the movie’s theme park attraction, which came full circle when Paxton later starred in the film’s ride at Universal Studios!

So sad that bill and Phillip are both gone. It’s rather bittersweet to see both these men in the same movie

[noonehome]

ET why did you have to make us cry😭😭😭 it brings a lot of memory seeing this wonderful actor.

Something about his voice just appeals to me. I grew up watching Twister on a loop and I will admit Thunderbirds as well. Bill Paxton is and will be my favorite actor of all time. Its pretty cool to me that I can almost sound like him sometimes. Rest in Peace Bill "The Extreme" Paxton.

[sumguyman]

Rip Mr Paxton. You've played in some of my all-time favorite films. Thank you.

[cinematimewithjason]

Rest In peace Bill Paxton such a wonderful actor

[twisterxv-tech]

RIP the extreme, this is a unforgettable footage taken on 1995 production in the making.

[goodbyeseeyalater]

RIP Bill "The extreme" Paxton. I like to think he's chasing twisters in heaven with Phillip S Hoffman.

[Timsonicboom]

One of my favorite parts of the movie is when Jo (Helen Hunt) says "Cow” then around 5 seconds later she says “another cow” then Bill says “Actually I think that was the same one” it cracks me up every time I see that part. I also like the waterspouts scene. Bill Paxton was a great actor. I’m excited to see the sequel movie coming out soon. Helen is going to be in it. But if Bill didn’t die, he would be a great actor in the movie.

[tresaemerick]

Gone too soon! Just finished watching Twister again. 😢

[joguertin]

It humbles me to have the privilege of watching the wonderful man's ghost who entertained us so many decades ❤
