People just noticing major filming error in Die Hard that shows main character 'resurrected' after being killed onscreen

Die Hard fans have recently been pointing out a host of errors with the film, following a viewer highlighting that one character appears to come back to life after dying.

With Christmas just around the corner, that means only one thing - it's time to watch Die Hard again.

While the film is a bona fide blockbuster CHRISTMAS classic, like many, it's far from perfect, and some fans have started pointing out a few blunders they have noticed after a few rewatches.

One Reddit user pointed out a blink-and-you'll-miss-it blunder that even the most ardent fans may not have spotted.

The moment is tied to one of the highlights of the film, the sluggish brawl between Bruce Willis’ John McCane and Alexander Godunov’s Karl.

While it's hilariously over the top 80s fun, the battle ultimately ends with McCane tying a metal chain around Karl’s neck and strangling him, leaving him for dead.

Now obviously, if you finished the film, you know that Karl isn’t dead as he makes an attempt on McCane’s life again right before he is shot and killed.

But Reddit users have pointed out, for one brief frame, it seems the terrorist Karl is 'resurrected'.

The user wrote: “I watched Die Hard for the first time tonight. You can see Karl standing in the background after John just strangled him with the chains. I assume he strangled the stunt double. GREAT Christmas movie by the way!”

Essentially, the last we see of Karl in the fight, he is tied up and dangling from the chains against the wall, but in the very next shot, when McCane reloads his dropped gun, Karl is in the background standing on the stairs.

It is a brief blunder, and doesn’t really make much sense, which is why some fans have surmised it actually might be a dummy or mannequin that is standing on the stairs.

One user joked: “That's not Karl. That's the ghost of a worker who died in the building.”

Another added: “Nah man it's a Bly manor situation, thats his ghost hes guna haunt the tower forever now.”

This sparked more conversations about other blunders, including another brief second error in the film.

The error sees the actor behind the Tony Vreski character (Andreas Wisniewski) blink when his lifeless body is discovered in the lift by Hans Gruber.

When Gruber tilts the head of Tony, after reading the delightfully cheeky ‘ho, ho, ho’ message on his jumper, Wisniewski blinks, something that dead people don’t tend to do.
