Here's how IThinkYouShouldLeave made its 'Coffin Flop' sketch, which required footage of dozens of people falling out of caskets. annevclark reports
Corncob TV’s Coffin Flop. Photo: Netflix One of the very first sketches that kicks off the second season of I Think You Should Leave is a PSA for a little-known television network called Corncob TV, which — according to a network representative played by Tim Robinson — is at risk of being removed from Spectrum’s channel offerings. That’s despite the success of its most popular show, Coffin Flop. “They’re saying Coffin Flop is not a real show,” Robinson declares.
/ 4 To figure out how performers would move inside the coffins, Holliday worked with the show’s stunt coordinators, Nito Larioza and Lou Simon. “When you get put in a coffin, there’s a lot of people that can’t breathe. They get claustrophobic,” Larioza says. “I had to find small people that fit the coffin.
In order for the audience to clearly see the fall happening, the number of pallbearers for each coffin had to be reduced from the standard six to only four, making it extra burdensome. “I can’t have extras being the pallbearers and holding the casket, because anything can happen,” Larioza says. “So I hired stunt people, people that I knew that were strong, that I trust that I knew could hold that.
The short shooting schedule presented a challenge for one of the sketch’s more complex falls: a scene in which a body falls out of a coffin and slides down a marble staircase. It’s the fall LaVecchia had been specifically hired to perform, and the one both Simon and Larioza agree was the trickiest. The stunt had been performed successfully without a coffin by Simon on a location scout. “That was the first time I had seen [the staircase],” Simon says.
The trick to falling like a dead body, according to LaVecchia, is to try and hit the ground with your shoulders first, “because if you land with your butt first, sometimes it can whiplash your head into the ground.” Larioza adds that you “can’t really know when the impact is going to happen; you’re going to just have to tuck in your chin and just go with the fall.” Simon offers an even simpler take: “Really, gravity is what it is.
