The ONE thing that brings the whole city crashing down is a random lever in a hallway?


I watched this for the first time in many years and I either overlooked this or have forgotten about it. But the one thing that brings down the entire city is a random lever in a hallway?

Not a trap preventing someone from getting to the book of death?
Not a trap guarding the room with "all the treasure of Egypt?"
Not a trap to make sure the sarcophagus of the Mummy wasn't disturbed?

No, none of that. It's a random lever in the middle of a hallway? Really? It makes no sense. They could have done better with this.

Yeah, but it was another of Beni's screwups that caused the collapse, and ultimately his (and only his) grisly death.
