Explosion footage reused

Did anyone else notice that the footage for the assassination attempt on Wayne Palmer, and the explosion from when Jack was locked in that room by Henderson are the the some of the same footage? If you watch closely you can see the same stool blow towards the screen.

It funny because I have watched those episodes a millions times, and it took a while to notice, but now that I notice it, I can't ignore it. Lol. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, I guess that's just how it works.

Saw it first time.

Sorry, I know that sounds a bit self-appreciating, but I tend to notice things like that. By the time Day 6 got to my screen (in September) I'd watched Day 5 three times through. All the shots were lodged in my memory.

It's not the worst example of shot re-use, though... Wink

Oh, don't worry, your not sounding self-appreciating at all Wink

You must be like the other people I know who are freakishly good at noticing little details like that right away. I notice them eventually, just not right away.
