John Rhys-Davies' lifting face in Raiders is Hilarious

Growing up I always thought this scene was hilarious given the way Sallah looks like he's pushing his dadbody to the limits, and the angle/background make him look like Poseidon from Jason and the Argonauts, all sweaty and out of shape and probably needing a cigarette after. Watching Raiders of the Lost Ark this morning I remembered this ham and was compelled to share.

Bonus moment where Harrison Ford channels Pumping Iron and releases some of his own snake venom.

So, what are some other movies with these odd, campy moments (campy even for a campy movie like Indiana Jones)? I feel like the 80s and 90s were rife with this stuff. Share please!

Rhy-Davies saying "They're digging in the wrong place!" never fails to crack me up and I still use the line to this day. Although it's impossible to use it naturally, which leads to people just staring at me bemused.

Totally ridiculous and mock worthy, yet simultaneously totally sells the scene and is perfect

He always reminds me of Sean Connery especially when he says "bad dates".

Maybe he was Henry Jones all along.
