The bathtub scene in the film was shot in England and at the time, it was around 36 degrees Fahrenheit. Chilam said that "it definitely was not as enjoyable as it looked," as they were not able to turn the water's heat up because doing so will fog the cameras up. As if that wasn't enough, they also revealed that they filmed the scene for eight hours straight!

Chilam said, "The sides of the bathtub were slanted, so it was impossible to sit straight. If you stay in that position for a long time, it is really uncomfortable," he continued, "[Amber] kept on slipping down the tub like the Titanic, so I had to use my feet to push her back up to prevent her from slipping again. Both of us weren't that close initially, but after that scene, we got close!" 

While the pair may look extremely romantic with each other on the scene, Amber revealed, "Before shooting the scene, we spent hours testing out camera angles and positions. Chilam and I did every possible stretching exercise in that tub. It wasn't romantic at all."

The bathtub scene may be one of the most uncomfortable and unforgettable experiences for Chilam and Amber, but they also shared a few memorable scenes in the filming of "Triumph in the Skies." One of those scenes was when Amber had to undergo a high-risk surgery for her illness and Chilam cried for real.

He shared, "The director didn't ask me to cry, but once [the cameras] rolled, I couldn't hold [the tears] in. I think it's because we had shared many heartwarming scenes together beforehand, so I became invested in our characters' relationship."
