“It was total chaos as 700 extras were trying to get down the street – they were banging into moving cars, cameras and military who were carrying heavy machine guns. Lots of people hurt themselves, and Brad came to the rescue of a woman who slipped. I don’t think she could believe it when Brad picked her up,” one observer noted.

Brad reportedly didn’t have time to speak to her as they were in mid-shoot but the woman said afterwards “how grateful she was” even though she walked away with a badly grazed knee.
