Mistake Continuity: When the jet crashes, we see a shot from below showing a large portion of it poking out over the cliff. We then cut to the parachutists, and when we cut back to the jet, we see that very nearly all of it is safely on rock.

Mistake Continuity: How is it that when Sly comes out of the freezing, icy water, his hair and clothes are bone dry? I don't know too much about hypothermia, but I would imagine that his fairly thin sweater isn't wind proof. I'm sure by the time the movie ended, he would be suffering from more symptoms of hypothermia other than chattering teeth.

Mistake Other: In the scene where Gabe is trying to stop the girl from falling, Frank is rather obviously smiling and when she actually falls, he's laughing.

Mistake Continuity: This mistake is visible during the "grand finale" fight scene, which takes place on the underside of an overturned helicopter which hangs from a cliff. If you look carefully, a few frames show the rigging which is holding the helicopter in place.

Mistake Continuity: At the start when Sly drops the girl, as she travels down, her jacket top changes colour a phenomenal amount of times.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Stallone is told to climb up and retrieve the first suitcase of money, we see him reach a rather open landing with plenty of room to kneel and break open the suitcase. Once his partner (still below with the terrorists) screams "They're gonna kill you," and the terrorists start shooting up at him, the camera pans up to show him standing with his back to the rocks on a tiny ledge with barely enough space to stand.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Rex Linn's character is looking at his tracking monitor before he shoots at the rabbit, we see a shot of the screen, with a reflection of the camera lens in it.
