'RAIDERS' AT 40: FIGHTING FOR THE ARK!

Another punch-up awaits Indy by the Nazi Flying Wing.

They've escaped their snake-layered Well of Souls underground trap, now Indy and Marion must do everything they can to liberate the Ark of the Covenant from the Germans, primarily trying to capture a Flying Wing during a perilous and explosive action sequence. From there, the dangers, action and injuries multiply for Indy as he then has to capture the enemy truck holding the ark. This is not going to be a fun day for him, but his onscreen breathless adventures (brilliantly staged and directed by Steven Spielberg and Mickey Moore, and using the services of Pat Roach, Peter Diamond, Bob Anderson, Terry Leonard, Glen Randall, plus other major participating stunt players) are nothing less than thrilling to viewers of all ages...

Indy and Marion escape the soon to blow up Flying Wing.

Indy takes chase of the truck carrying the Ark.

The opening stage of the now classic truck chase.
