Everyone noticed that the aerial shot of stranded lorries in Dover looks eerily similar to an iconic movie scene
Hundreds of lorries remain Stranded at Manston Airfield, Kent after France shut the border for 48 hours on Sunday due to fears over the new strain of coronavirus in the UK.
Drone footage revealed the jaw-dropping scale of the issue in its entirety, and if you thought the scene looked familiar, you’re far from alone.

People began to notice that the footage resembled the closing scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Admittedly, gridlock lorries don’t immediately conjure up the image of the iconic 80s movie but bear with us.
HUGE end of Raiders of the Lost Ark energy here. https://t.co/uZIJcVZwC1
