I like the story behind the actor practising in his flat for the movie hot fuz, complete with blind fold. He said it was a noisy operation and with the light putting some interesting shadows on his curtains a neighbour phoned the police to complain. After doing a strip down and reassembly he put his hands in the air before lowering the blind fold to see a few members of the UK AOS pointing their firearms at him. With all the noise he hadn't heard them. They stated that if he'd picked up the weapon at the end of it rather than putting his hands in the air they would have shot him.
