All she did was jump off the freighter. Granted I am sure it was a pretty long way down to the water.
The thing is that when I first heard Zoë Bell was going to be on LOsT I immediately thought: "Awesome! There is going to be some cool action scene with an even cooler stunt by Zoë Bell"
so......... I am disappointed now, thats all.

I can see how you would feel that way, but she may still appear in a flashback. As to what would be the point of using real chains, well, you are probably right that they were fake, but some stunt performers actually perform real stunts, and if Ms. Bell is a purist, then she may be one of them. Take Jackie Chan for instance, yes he is from a totally different school of performance, but all his stunts are real, because that is what his audience expects. If you see Jackie free-falling ten stories, he is actually free-falling ten stories. If you see Jackie jumping off a moving train on a motorcycle in order to grab a helicopter, he is actually... well, you get the point. Anyway, I wouldn't rule out that she used real chains, just because you could as easily do it with fake ones.
