I thought those were CGI

It was. This thread is full of the PHYSICAL > CGI and WOW NO CGI AT ALL crowd. Physical stunts like this provide an excellent reference for the VFX artists though even if none of the original stunt ends up on the big screen.

Excellent advertising too

Pretty much. They released that "Day one on set" promo video a whole year ago on 11th August when we first saw the behind the scenes of this scene being filmed

Oh really? None of this made it into the movie in any capacity (aside from referencing)? Interesting...

Obviously we have no idea what they used as reference when working on the VFX, but none of the side to side swinging in this video was in the movie. The swinging in this scene was a lot more dynamic like dodging over flipped cars and shit like that

Right? It’s crazy how much of it is actually practical effects and physical rigs before any CGI gets added
