Punisher VFX moment wasn’t AI: real stuntman took the fall, with face swapped in post

TL;DR Summary
That infamous shot in The Punisher: One Last Kill was filmed in-camera with a real stuntman taking the impact while Jon Bernthal’s face was later swapped onto the stuntman’s body; the scene’s artificial look was mainly due to timing/lighting and a face replacement, not AI-generated visuals.
