I've always thought with things like the giant boulder...how did the people who made it TEST the damn thing??
"Right, the trap is set, release the boulder!!"
"Ok that worked, now how do we get the bloody thing back up the ramp?"

Getting into a tomb involves some stupidly tricky mechanism, which usually results in a whole series of ancient walls collapsing and areas flooding.

1. How did they test the mechanism worked?
2. How did they know they wouldn't need to go back inside at any point?
3. Did any of them ever think "ah shit, i've left the idol spotlight on, knock the wall down AGAIN lads

# aye
but I bet he'd have got out OK in the end - with the idol, and Bellocq would have been hanging around outside for ages, then got bored and gone home to watch Balamory

# "Indiana jones and the Hanging Around the Blocked Ancient Temple" just doesn't sound that appealing
