Post subject:  Most memorable FAILED escapes
A secondary follow-on from the Sarge's thread. How about those cinematic moments where they get so close and yet so far? Where all it would have taken was another second, another yard, another breath, and it would have made the difference between a close call and... well, a call.

My nomination - Steve McQueen's motorbike jump in, funnily enough, The Great Escape.

You're gonna hate me for this...

But the first that comes to mind is Melish vs the SS soldier in SPR.

Obviously The Great Escape was the first to come to mind... So many goodun's in that!

and that classic line:

"Good luck" (thick German Accent)

..."Thank you!"
