Marvel’s big Summer tent pole, Captain America: Civil War, was one of the biggest commercial successes of the summer while also being a favorite of the critics, sitting at a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes. However, getting there is never easy. It takes a lot of planning, a lot of work, a lot of dedication to one singular cause. It’s a tough job to make a movie and can be emotionally exhausting.

Which is why we all love gag reels so much. We get to see these serious characters portrayed by serious actors at the top of their game, artists who know their craft so incredibly well, all flubbing and failing and flailing all over the place. Gag reels are great because they demystify the filmmaking process and humanize these larger than life characters.

And the gag reel for Civil War is no exception. Well, technically, it’s the second gag reel.

We’ve got Chris Evans as Captain America swatting at a fly, Scarlet Johannson almost hitting the poor camera man and, perhaps, the best moment, Paul Bethany as The Vision disappearing by simply kneeling down. It really is like he’s doing that terrible joke of walking down invisible stairs.

But, watch it for yourself.
