You know how in Die Hard I, the bad guys shoot the glass, and Bruce Willis is barefoot, so he has to walk across broken glass?
Why didn't he take his pants off and use his pants as a broom? I'd rather walk around a building in my boxers than walk across broken glass.
The weird thing... I haven't seen Die Hard in about 5 years... maybe more...

Plus, he needed the pockets later,
and he didn't want to risk getting glass in the nards

Do you think Bruce Willis' music wouldn't suck if he didn't have glass in his feet and wasn't wearing pants?

Under those circumstances, I run like hell and deal with the consequences later as opposed to stripping and sweeping.

Bruce Willis is a Man's Man!
He's far too manly to do some sissy chore like sweeping.
I swear, I heard him once say he'd rather walk through broken glass than sweep the kitchen floor.
Now that's a MAN who puts his money where his mouth is!

Buuuuut, they shot the glass, then left, because the lead german knew that he wasn't wearing shoes. Besides, you can't walk across broken glass while being shot at either, I think it slows you down...
