According to testimonials obtained by TMZ, those very subway cars were sealed for extended periods of time with extras inside, denied required two-hour breaks. Even the need for bathroom breaks, leading to banging on the doors, were denied, and some extras even urinated on the tracks through the spaces on the tracks between the subway cars.
