Adorable Miner Dies?
18 May 2011
Warning: Spoilers
To those who think ALL the scenes are real, I hate to burst your bubble. The West Virginia miner scene was filmed in Alabama at De Soto Caverns. How do I know? My husband "died" in that scene.

They even used his real name Ralph. If you pay close attention, you'll notice he was later one of the guys who carried out his own "dead" body.

He was a young graduate of the University of Alabama at the time and was paid in pizza and beer.

I rated the movie a 10 only because Ralph was so cute and young at the time. Otherwise, the movie is very low brow and ridiculous.

I assure you, Ralph is very much alive and still pretty damn cute.
