Why our Walking on Water scene looked so real...

- If you found our walking on water scene believable, that's because we faked as little as possible. The waves, wind, and rain were all real. And the footing...well, it was firmer than water, but far from solid ground.
Enjoy this look at the steps we took to get as close as humanly possible to a divine miracle. And if you want to see more, check out the full documentary in The Chosen app.

Literally one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history.
It works so well
Juxtaposing the episode of Simon saying don't let me go and Eden praying don't let him go was very powerful
It was good, but I wished she would have prayed for herself. She was alone and had lost a baby, she had undergone so much pain and shifting the focus so much on Peter did her a bit wrong I think. I had such a hard time connecting with her character because she is losing a lot of personality. Too selfless, you know. It works for the scene, but realistically I think it would have been better if she had prayed "Don't let us go." I even think it would have worked better if Peter had been present when they lost the baby. This whole marriage quarrel was painful to watch. I thought he had little compassion for his wife and if they wanted to depict him mourning his child so much he should have known of his wife's pregnancy and looking forward to being a father. They could have really shown him struggling uniting family with following Jesus. They missed a chance there.
I can agree to disagree with you on this one. The main idea was simply to get The Walking On Water scene and for Simon to come to terms with following Jesus even with everything doesn't make sense which is a classic character trait assignment that's listed in the Bible. The information about the marriage in the miscarriage and those things aren't necessarily in the Bible so that's just fodder and I think the main idea was to have it resolved so that at the end of the day Simon was committed to Jesus more than anything else. But that's just me.
I agree it was brilliant.
That and Simon just holding on to Jesus and saying, "don't let me go" touched me to my core! I found myself praying that through tears all the way home.
I think the point with them showing Eden praying for her husband instead of herself is because we as followers of Christ are to reflect Jesus’ character. Jesus throughout his ministry prayed for others. Scriptures in both the Old and New Testament tell us to pray for one another. Job 42:10 “And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.” 1 Timothy 2:1 “First of all, then, I urge that supplicants, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,” James 5:16, “Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working”. I think they were showing Eden was following the scripture of old and following Jesus example by praying for others before herself and in this case it was for her husband. I personally think the scene flashing between Eden and Peter represents the healing that can take place as we pray for one another. Peter may not have seemed like he was praying, but he was seeking Jesus for answers for the pain and loss that he didn’t understand. I can only imagine this is the struggle that couples who go through with such a painful loss. Men tend to want to fix things or have answers and in this scene Peter had neither, so he sought out the only one who does. At least that is what I got from the flashing scenes between Eden and Peter. As for the walking on water and Peter sinking, well it symbolizes what happens to us followers of Christ when we take our eyes off Jesus and don’t put our complete trust in God. Matthew 6:33 “ But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
I know that Dallas did not want to attempt this scene but God used it to make an impact on many lives. Thank you for the risks you take to bring God's word to life.
Amen!
AMEN!!!
YES! THERE IT IS!
ALL PRAISES TO OUR LORD N SAVOR!!!
THANK YOU JESUS, we know it was your will to get this this scene on film!!!
Amen!
Amen
It does not matter how many times I watch this scene,it gives me goosebumps,then the tears follow, then I pray out loud! God is good! He will not abandon us no matter what we’ve done. Dallas,crew,actors and everyone connected to The Chosen,please know that you all are saving souls in this sinful modern times.
All the feels in one scene.
Yes me also❤
Me too, and I can't control it. I tried not to tear up, but it doesn't work. I don't get bumps but my eyes just drip tears. I know that these are just actors and the scene is not the real event, but I also know that it really did happen, and I think back and wander into the mind of Simon Peter, and just imagine how he felt when he lost his faith and began sinking. And then I can imagine that feeling when Yeshua pulled him up, and asked him why he doubted. I also have compassion on him because at least he was the only one of the twelve that had enough faith in the first place to actually get out of the boat and do it for however many steps it was, until he felt the fear again because of the rough seas and the boisterous wind and got his eyes off of Yeshua.
I hate it when people try to think that it was an allegorical example for us to use when our faith is faltering. It is narrative because that's the genre of the chapter, and I know that there are spiritual components to the account that we can learn from, but it really did happen (and I know that I have said that already, but it's worth repeating.)
@@TheChosenSeries
Yes, the entire series has been a mixed bag of emotions and spiritual lessons. Even if there are additional stories added, and character qualities or attributes that we don't read anything about in the Scriptures. I understand that it's not supposed to be an exact depiction of the Bible narrative, but even though there is a lot of artistic licence being used to tell the gospel stories, I don't think that it's a sinful act as so many people have been in an uproar about. I remember Dallas explaining that right from the start so that people were advised to not use the program as a substitute for reading and studying our Bibles. I don't know what God's judgement is regarding the additional stories and details to make this program entertaining and provocative enough to make people thirst for the whole word of God. There are hundreds of people (if not more) who are unhappy with the added side stories and additions to the Bible. I have seen comments on every episode and it appears to me that many people have been brought closer to God in Jesus' (Yeshua Messiah) tenderness acted by Johnathan Roumie. He seems to have a tender heart and that is a necessary characteristic of our Lord.
What a huge challenge! How the actors - especially Jonathan and Shahar managed the crazy floats and dunking under the water is just amazing! Not to mention the rocking boat, the noise, the constant rain. Wow! Absolutely amazing! ❤
A lot of work but worth it, Marti!
POWERFUL!!!!
I have watched this movie several times!!!
Just know watching Jesus put his hand in the water and pull Simon out HITS ME EVERY TIME!!!!!
Thank you JESUS FOR THE SERIES THE CHOSEN!!!
GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERYONE THAT MADE THIS HAPPEN!!!!
🙋🏻♀️♥️🇺🇸
I remember seeing this the first time, and when the scene started, I was thinking, uh-oh, I'm not sure they can pull this off. But, you did. It was very, very well done. The acting, the real elements, the CGI all of it. Bravo!
Glad you weren't disappointed, @bassmanjr100. 🙂
This is the scene that The Chosen will be known for for years to come. Bravo and kudos to everyone involved 👏🏼👏🏼
Absolutely astonishing stuff. I can’t get over how immaculate all aspects of The Chosen’s production are… the acting, writing, editing, cinematography, everything is just incredible. You guys probably have no idea just how much your efforts mean to us all, and how massively appreciated you all are. Thank you everyone involved with making The Chosen! 🙏🏻✝️
Perfectly said 👏
Thank you for your positive feedback, Steven!
@@TheChosenSeries You’re more than welcome! 🙏🏻✝️
Yes!!
I have tears streaming down my face every time I see this scene. Don't let me go, Jesus, don't let me go.
Me, too!
As a grown man I'm happy to say that almost every episode of the show I've watched has made me cry. I'm trying to remember which ones didn't which are very few. S3E1 is the only I can think of.
Thank you Dallas and everyone involved in the show. Thank you for bringing my Bible to life.
EVERY TIME I've watched this scene, I sob. So powerful!!!
It maybe rough in they’re first two days of film this scene, but it was worth it. Thank you Dallas and to your crew and actors as well, for bringing more people closer to God.❤❤❤❤
You know it's powerful when just watching the clip of the scene that broke you breaks you again! Thank you, Dallas and team, for depicting the tangible love of Jesus and our desperate need of Him.
This scene is what changed my life to God. Every time I watch it, I bawl. Not just cry, I ugly cry because it means so much to me and brings up so many memories and feelings.
Thank you for sharing how The Chosen has impacted you, Beth.
This scene is so POWERFUL! Peter realizing who Jesus truly is. Peter begging our Lord..don't let me go. I was crying and saying the same words. Don't let me go. What a powerful prayer.
Thank Dallas and all involved in making The Chosen. May God bless you for all you are doing to bring the message of the Bible to life.❤
Where I have been in my life at times, I think this scene aptly describes me. My cry has been, "Don't let me go!" over and over.
Simon is all of us, Daniel.
As soon as Simon says "Don't let me go" the water works start flowing every time! ♥
The music, the Psalm, all brought it together magnificently!
I cried, prayed, thanked and praised Jesus all the drive home from the theater that day. The storyline leading up to that scene was gut wrenching. Watching the surrender of anger, sorrow and utter despair, running back into the bosom of Jesus is something we can all relate to. It wasn’t just about the miraculous event; which was great all on its own, but it became so much more because of the story. What a vastly amazing Savior we serve, thank you for bringing the Loaves & Fish! God bless you and the crew!! 🙏🏼🫶🏼🙏🏼
I really liked the part where they filmed up showing Jesus feet walking on the water I thought that was cool
@@pamelajohnson6675for sure; it’s amazing how the smallest little details can be so profound! The reaching into the water to pull Simon out rocked me to my core…how many times has Jesus “reached into the water” to pull every one of us out of our despair? For me, many many times…I love Jesus so much, He’s my world 🥹♥️🙏🏼…. This show has lit a fire, a passion and a deep desire for my Savior; to know Him like never before. I can’t wait to see Him face to Face and thank Him for loving me so much, for forgiving me, for sacrificing His life for me. Everything we go through in this pain filled life will all be worth it when I see His face…God is so good!
Great scene.
May God bless you all indeed !
I love The Chosen!!!
I don’t think this scene could’ve been any better. Just, wow. Blows my mind every time I see it and makes me emotional. It almost feel like I’m there.
This was so amazing. This show never disappoints. I sure did cry over this episode. 💙 God bless all the actors and everyone involved making the Chosen 💙
Conveyed soooo much. made me emotional the part when Peter went into the water, out, and embraces Jesus. We all have this moment in our lives. Thank you.
I love this sooooo much! Truely amazing what camera's and editing can do. Y'all are awesome! Thank you so much. I am not one to cry easily, but this scene made me cry.
Thank you to cast and crew for the time and effort expended to bring this moment to life. Brings me to tears every time.
This particular scene made me cry and every time I watch I still get emotional when Simon hugs him and begs him no to let him go.
The show is full of emotional scenes . No matter how many times I watched it, I want to watch it over and over again. Love the Chosen!!❤
We're right there with you, Ann. #BingeJesus is a thing. :)
Someone recommended "The Chosen" to me few months back and I can't stop watching it now. We are still binge watching it and we are eagerly waiting for season 4. Now I highly recommend it to all my friends and relatives. Thank you so much dear Chosen team. This is the BEST thing I have ever watched in my life. Thank you all soooooo much and God bless you all abundantly 💯💯💯✔️✔️✔️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️✝️✝️ Lots and lots of love from India 🇮🇳
Glad you enjoy it all the way from India! @s12star
Love this scene. I can watch it over and over and over again. The love that Jesus has for us is unfathomable. Brings me to tears every time.
I also love how Jonathan looks around and those waves aggravated and was like be quiet!
Truly goose bump worthy !! So incredibly powerful and beautifully portrayed!!
So wonderful and how blessed the world is to have this way in bringing His story to life.
This was one of the most powerful episodes for me. The Peace Be Still.... Amazing!!!!
It was such a powerful scene. Great job.
God bless you all Chosen cast and crew! ❤🎉
This was great editing, switching between the actual footage and the finished product. It was very intense! Thank you!
Watching this water scene experience right now, gave me the chills. It was soo dramatic. Excellent work by all.❤🙏
I binge watch this show over and over, I can't wait for season four, praise Yeshua.!☝️
Of the 3 seasons to date; the walking on water scene is the most epic! When Jesus’ hand reaches below the water to save Peter, that almost made me jump for joy!
This was one of the most emotional scenes I have ever seen. Loved it.
I am glad you put this in the season, it was very emotional for all of us. It has helped me to ask Jesus to not let me go in my life. Thank you.
Woww‼️This just made me soo emotional that I'm boohooing tears😭😭 of joy❤️ and gratitude for Jesus saving my life❤️from lesbianism two years ago. He literally reached down His mighty right hand from heaven and snatched me up out of the pit. I am soo grateful.🥹THANK YOU JEESUUUSSS‼️🙌🏾🙌🏾 Thank you for sharing this powerful scene with us from "Chosen".❤
This scene, is so heartwarming,I love it one of my favorite scenes💕
How incredibly awesome that The Chosen followed the Holy Spirit's direction to include this scene!
This always makes me cry, I don't know how many times I have cried "God, please don't let me go"
Oh I can’t even……….not without crying ❤ it’s so beautiful! Dallas, you tricky bugger 😂
Even seeing this how it was made..I still sobbed😢 I could watch it a million times plus more💓
Completely understandable, Susan.
@@TheChosenSeries Thank You for your response.I appreciate what you guys are doing.God chose an awesome group of people to make this series💪😁Im telling people that I'm in love with Jesus!!!Lol
I learned so much more about the apostles.I never really read the Bible because I had a hard time understanding it
Now I'm reading the book of John the baptizer and I can finally relate!!!
I don't really know how you can transform a situation in a pool in such a cool vision, but I enjoyed the final result so much. Great job, all your efforts were worth it.
I love how amazing this scene is! It may have been a challenge but, it was worth it!
Every part of this series catches my heart.
This scene made me BAWL my eyes out😭 I love the show and I can’t wait to watch Season 4!
I cried at this scene... beautiful. Can't wait for more!!
Thanks very much for this intense scene and I wish that I could contribute some to make this particular episode possible❤🥺
Thank you Angeli Studios for the Chosen and The sound of Freedom! You are really an enrichment to this world !
"They had to use those " things" Lord, but You didn't." 🤷🏻♀️😆 True but being silly. This was such a powerful scene!!!!! 😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️
This one scene.. I would say.. will go down in history as one of the most perfect re-enactment of that moment in the Bible... All others I've ever seen.. were never as moving as this one.. Thank you to Dallas.. and the actors.. as well as the crew and video people.. You performed a real miracle..
We appreciate your kind words, Clay. Thank you.
Such a genius combo of CGI and practical effects.
So sell done, I never thought it could be pulled off this good
Such an impactful scene, thank you for bringing it to life.
God is so Great! I cried when they showed this. Just like God helped with "The Ten Commandments" he's going to do the same with "The Chosen". I got my tissue ready for Season 4!
Keep doing what you were called to do Mr. Dallas, Great job!!!😇🥰
This one out of all of Chosen got me the most. It hurt me and healed my heart all at the same time.
One of my favorite scene in The Chosen! ❤❤❤
This was one of my favorite scenes, it shows the wonderful power of ou😊r God🙏🏻
This scene was beyond and wrecked me, it was so beautiful and so real. How can anyone after seeing Jesus on the water when it happened, not have believed. God Bless the entire cast and crew for an outstanding creation in film. PLEASE do the Transfiguration and Ascension!!! LOVE THE CHOSEN!! Amen!
The most surprising, unexpected yet intense & emotional scene I've seen on cinema
The tough test of faith ! Amen. Well pictured.
I CANNOT wait for more EPIC scenes like these in season 4!!!❤
We will do our best, Jeni.
AMEN 🙌
Such a powerful emotional scene. How many of us during our life has been to a place of complete desperation where we know unless the God of heaven and earth intervenes, our loved one will die, we will lose our marriage., We will lose our wayward teenager, and so many scenarios, there is no other hope. Every time I see this scene and Simon is calling out to Jesus, and then pleading, “Don’t let me go!”, it makes me just weep. Jesus is our life line. In my 74 years, I can think of so many times I have cried out to my Lord. St this moment, our family is going through a situation with a family member and I know that unless Jesus intervenes, there is no hope. Everyday I pray, “Lord, there is nothing too hard for you.” And I believe that. One of my favorite verses is Isaiah 43:2. Jesus is always there. He just waiting for us to surrender the problem to Him. He’s ready to intervene and help. Once again, I say with a thankful heart, thank you Dallas and everyone that’s involved. Your hard work and efforts are so appreciated and life changing. Much love and prayers for your continued journey.❤️✝️🙏🙌
What an amazing scene. I cry all over again every time I watch it. That scene is EPIC. Steven Spielburg couldn't have done it better. Bravo to the crew!!!!❤❤
Everyone worked very hard to bring this scene to life, @vh8674.
So cool! and the sound design to cut out the other sounds! So cool for the behind the scenes!
I just keep watching this over and over and my face is wet with tears. Every single time I see it, I cry out with Simon: “Jesus don’t let me go, don’t let me go, don’t let me go.!!!
Still makes me cry even knowing how it's done.
Us too, @kg5miko.
Did anyone notice that this is 3:33 long? :D Love this scene, yes you had to do it!! Thank you!!!
Matthew may have edited it, @Trasea. 😉
My favorite scene fromSeason 3!!!! ❤
Great video. Loved this episode! Great job Y'all!!
Austin TX USA
Wow!!! It was always hard for me to imagine how this miracle happened, and though I know this isn't exactly how it was this scene has helped tremendously to visualize Peter walking on water, held up by his faith! The picture of Jesus lifting him up when he fell was a beautiful reminder of God's love for us, and how He will always lift us up when we fall. Love this show!
Thank you for the hard work devotedness. May God be praised. Blessing and prayers from Sydney. Love you all ❤❤
Scenes with these two are always wonderful ❤️
really good scene that captures our fears and His love for us
This scene is unforgettable. 🙏🏻
It was a beautifully done way to conclude Season 3. Glad the Lord helped pull all the pieces together to make it a logical component and not just a wow for wow’s sake, and that the tank was so close and the tech all worked wonderfully. I love that when possible (like here as well as feeding of 5000 that you do not just use computer generated graphics. Kudos to cast and all the behind the scenes crew.
Absolute divine-inspired genius!
Love this series so much! Heartwarming and educational, showing us reaiistically the life of Jesus and his Apostles in those times
This scene was SPECTACULAR. I bet everybody worked so hard, especially Shahar and Jonathan, and also those who were filming the scene and holding the microphones. Dang, this scene was so amazing, it was insane. The greatness of the quality too? My gosh! That’s some real walking on water right there.
This scene was so beautifully done. I realized all the times God pulled me out of the sinking water.
This was a powerful and emotional scene 🙏
It was worth it. One of the most powerful scenes in the series so far. (And there’s been a lot of them)
This scene the entire episode this entire show but this scene in particular is very near to my heart I appreciate you all so much for creating such magic ❤❤
So beautiful scene😢
Great episode, literally one of the most powerful episodes
Y’all did a fantastic job making it look real. I almost wish I didn’t watch how you did it 😂
Looking forward to season 4 God bless
Phenomenal!!!!! Absolutely phenomenal!!! The average person has no idea what’s involved in filming a scene, especially one such as difficult and challenging as this. It was incredibly fascinating to see. I’ve developed a whole new appreciation for the talent, efforts and skills involved in filmmaking. Thank you for posting!!!!
Yes, Jesus, please don't let go of me!
We are expectant saints, thanks so much for bringing the Bible to life. .. i pray most of us would fall more in love with the word of God. Cos it's spirit and Life. Preach that very word to people allover us.
Love from Kampala , Uganda.
"Don't leave me" in my mind I was screaming the same with Simon Peter 🙏🥰
It's not so much Simon saying "Don't let me go", it's Jesus saying "I got you" that touches me in an unexplainable way. To say I don't always remember that Jesus has me is the truth but because of this scene I am sure I will live by it from this second on. Hearing Jesus literally say 3 little words, just not reading them, brought me to a place I needed to be at. I'm thanking all of The Chosen crew and cast for 3 beautiful, touching, eye opening, amazing seasons. 24 episodes has changed millions of people including me. 24 episodes of any other show has NEVER been so incredible. God bless and may He continue to shower His grace and mercy on all involved in The Chosen and all who are touched by it. 🙏🕊🐟🍞✝️🙌💜
We couldn't do it without your support, Michelle.
There are many powerful scenes in The Chosen. This one gives me the peace I need in our world today. Even with the tears that flow, hearing him say "Don't let me go," I feel such peace. It's difficult to explain. I just pray He doesn't let go of us doing the very clear test we are going through in the world today. Family members and friends turning against each other, every action thought and belief has become political. God is not allowed in our schools yet perversion is protected by law.
I know that there is a balance on earth. For every evil there is good. This series has helped me remember that there is hope. There is a love for us that is absolutely unconditional and that we deserve that love.
Thank you for this series. Thank you for the dialog that can be quite serious and minutes later makes me laugh. Thank you for helping me see Bible stories as very human and relatable.
Thank you Heavenly Father for guiding me to view the series. Thank you for sending Jesus to pay for my sins and the sins of us all.
Bless you all at Angel Studios and may God watch over you all. 🙏
I. LOVE. THIS. SHOW.❤
I'm just about to finish my third watch through of the chosen and it was only last night that I realised I hadn't yet seen this episode...
Well hey at least I got a new episode to watch now I guess lol
Your team did an incredible job on this scene. Truely amazing work.
This show has brought me back.
