Filmmakers will use every trick they can to try and make us believe the story they're trying to tell. Whether these tricks are practical effects, visual effects, or camera tricks, filmmakers will always try to get as much real-life footage as possible to reduce the amount trickery needed, however, this can often result in some of the most dangerous looking scenes in the story of a movie also being some of the most dangerous to capture on film.

Mission Impossible: Fallout.
Jackie "The One Man Show" Chan, prefers to do all his own stunts and Tom Cruise is of a similar opinion, so for the Helicopter Battle Scene in Mission Impossible: Fallout, he had a lot of work to do. This scene required him to put his helicopter into a corkscrew dive, even though Tom has flown helicopters before, the corkscrew dive is a dangerous and complicated procedure, so he went to Airbus Helicopter school in Texas and put in 8 hours a day for almost 3 months to learn how to do it relatively safely. In order to make the scene more visually appealing and to show that Tom was really flying the helicopter, the team set up external camera rigs on the helicopter to film what he was doing. This wasn't the only dangerous stunt in this scene, at one point, Tom has to climb a rope up to the helicopter, then, 1200ft in the air, lose his grip and fall 40 ft down hitting the rigging below, and catching it just as he bounces off.
Extraction.
The 12-minute extraction sequence in this scene seems like one seamless 12-minute take, but this isn't exactly true, The sequence is broken down into 7 different segments, a car chase, a run upstairs, a fight inside the building, a jump from one building's roof to another, a fall of an awning, a street fight and the final car chase, these seven segments were composed of 36 different shots invisibly woven together using complicated stunts, invisible cuts, cameramen on foot and hanging from harnesses, and incredibly well-rehearsed fight scenes. Each segment was precisely choreographed, not only for the actors but for the cameramen too.
At this point you are probably thinking " Dangerous Stunts in Movies, Where's Jackie Chan?" well the truth is the Jackie has been involved in so many different dangerous scenes that he deserves his own video.... and here it is https://youtu.be/c6Ww4gq3ZXc
Expendables 3.
When a film has action scenes, fighting, bullets flying, and explosions, danger is always present, so much so that during the filming of Expendables 2, one stuntman badly injured and another was sadly killed in a staged explosion on a rubber boat. Even though every safety precaution may have been taken, unforeseen things can and will happen. Just like what happened to Jason Statham during the filming of Expendables 3. Whilst filming the Escape The Dock scene in Bulgaria, Statham was doing a run-through in the 3-ton flatbed truck and its brakes failed, Statham and the truck went over the edge of the dock and into the Black Sea taking two cameramen with them. The Cameramen soon surfaced but Jason went down with the truck, the water pouring in the window stopping him from exiting the vehicle. Luckily Jason was an avid diver as a youth, and a member of England's National diving team on 1m, 3m, and 10m platforms so he was used to water and knew how to stay calm.
Fast and Furious 9.
Fast and Furious 9 had a healthy VFX budget, mainly because most of the insane stunts in the film would have been almost impossible to pull off without VFX. CG vehicles, Digital mattes, and Digital doubles made filming a lot of the action scenes safer, but they didn't remove all the danger. Controlled explosions, rough terrain, and other special effects meant that the driving stunts, even though painstakingly planned and rehearsed, could still go wrong in many ways. Other stunts like action scenes, fight scenes, falls, and jumps could mostly be filmed in controlled environments and then digital backgrounds added later in post, this, and the use of stunt drivers and stunt people removed virtually all the risk of injury from the actors, but the stunt people were still in danger...
