Best Answer

Portions of (wreckage) could be placed in a sort of twisted or tilting tank something like a car-dumper- but painted with the right shades to fit the jungle warfare angle- PT-l09 was lost near Guadalcanal. Thus they could show actors hanging onto (wreckage) without much risk involved. Also more traditional trick Photography- photos of the men on the Japanese destroyer superimposed- then the ramming sequence. Trick photography often used in war setting.
