* When Jed and Octavius are popping Cecil's tires, and they get blown away by the violent gush of air coming out of the vent. Made funnier when the scene cuts to a DistantReactionShot of the van from a normal person's perspective that shows an almost inaudible sound being made as the air is released.



* Jed and Octavius (along with their men) letting the air out of one of the tires in the bad guys' getaway vehicle. To a regular-sized human, that would be fool's errand. To the miniatures, '''it's the most epic and daunting task they've ever had to face, as they struggle to keep the spear stabbed into the tire's air valve for as long as they can hold out'''! The funny part is how the scene keeps switching between [[MundaneMadeAwesome how it looks from their viewpoint]] and how it looks from ours: a relatively quiet scene staring at the truck as the sound of its air being let out mundanely and gradually grows more audible.

** Comes back as a BrickJoke a couple scenes later. When Larry recruits Scajawea to help track down the bad guys, she's able to decipher that the antagonist drove away, but then he lost control (because one of his tires had no air) and crashed the vehicle. How does she know that? She answers by pointing to the scene of the crash, merely a few yards away.

** when Jed and Octavius fall down the ventilation shaft everyone is understandably worried that the heat will kill them, with the exception of Ahkmenrah, who just stands there calmly, nonchalantly stating that the heat will "bake them like tiny little scarabs in the Sinai". Everyone silently stares at him incredulously. His only response is "Too dark?
