A Major Die Hard Plot Hole Was Just Explained… 29 Years Later

Sam Warner:

The makers of Die Hard have explained a big plot hole in the middle of the movie, and it’s only taken them three decades to give us the truth.

To jog your memory in case you’ve forgotten, baddie Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) pretends to be a hostage when he first comes face to face with John McClane (Bruce Willis).

McClane suspects that something is off and manages to get away – but it is never specified what exactly set off his alarm bells.

Missed this last year! Perfect for the film’s 30th anniversary though.
