If a fridge is all I've got I'm still getting in the fridge! :lol
It's no more absurd than all of the stunts in Temple of Doom...or God coming out of a box to melt Nazis lol. Scientific accuracy is not what I'm looking for in these flicks. KOTCS has problems, but to my dying day I will defend nuking the fridge. Hilarious and disturbing 50s era Indy moment, and the highlight of the movie.
The invisible painted stone bridge in Last Crusade bothered me a lot more than the nuked fridge ever did. Implausible things are easier to swallow when they aren't so crucial to the high point of the story.
Or light detecting sensors in a stone age treasure room?

Failing that, the impact from landing alone would probably kill you.

That bugged me a little... but it bugs me more that so many people have a problem with that, but NO ONE ever complains about Tony Stark crashing his first Iron Man suit in the dessert at a way worse height/velocity...
It would have turned him to mush.
Bridge doesn't bug me at all... street artists play with the forced perspective paintings all the time.
I've seen those too. But I've never been fooled thoroughly enough to fear stepping onto one.
I could have bought it if Indy wasn't quite so up-close to the bridge in broad daylight. Like maybe the bridge was 10 feet down below him and the whole setting was a bit darker & foggier. It still wouldn't have been 100% believable but it would have helped a lot.
