Rare Footage of the Infamous Practical Joke on the Set of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

During the filming of the whipping scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Harrison Ford was the unsuspecting victim of a now-infamous practical joke. While chained to a large stone, his back turned, Barbra Streisand emerged from the shadows behind him dressed head to toe in a leather dominatrix outfit. She then proceeded to playfully whip him senseless, shouting things like “this is for Hanover Street, the worst movie I ever saw” and “this is for all the money you make” over the loud cracks reverberating throughout the massive set. Carrie Fisher then appeared disguised as a Thuggee guard and promptly threw herself against Ford to protect him. Unable to see his savior, Ford curiously asked, “Who’s that?” Fisher responded by saying “Someone who loves you” before giving him a frenzied kiss reminiscent of a scene from Return of the Jedi. Irvin Kershner, director of The Empire Strikes Back, also made a cameo appearance, humorously lecturing Steven Spielberg by asking him, “Is this how you run your movies?”

The Barbra Streisand part is random, but when Carrie Fisher comes on the screen it’s like watching Han Solo and Princess Leia cosplaying Indiana Jones. I’ve known about this for years now, but I never dreamed the footage would see the light of day. I don’t think I even want to know how it was found. Probably by breaking into Steven Spielberg’s house in some covert operation led by Jack Bauer.

wookiekisses, I had to one-up you. The video of that prank.
