Especially fun when combined with abovementioned grapple tricks and sticky explosives.

And between those, there are demonstrations - in this order - of wingsuit flying, sportscar chase, wing-walking, and motorcycle combat. In multiple-choice scenes, there are the following solutions, cherry-picked from the wealth of options available and recorded for the trailer:
