Mistakes

In Jamaica, when they are practicing with the roughly thrown together bobsled on the dirt road, right after they swerve to avoid the lady on the road and right before the bobsled crashes into the police vehicle, they are going over the rough terrain and the bobsled's front wheel (left side to the viewer) flies off in front of the bobsled from the left side of the screen to the right, but in subsequent shots of the bobsled the wheel is always there.

When Derice is applying for loans at different banks, the wall behind each bank manager is always the same wall! The plants and decorations are different, but it's the identical wall. See more...

When they are in the motel in Calgary and when Ule Brenner answers the door in the back ground you can see that the little short guy (I can't think of his name) has a hat on. Then it goes to the person at the door ,then back to Ule with no hat on, then back to the door, then back to Ule with a hat on. It goes back to the door then Ule turns around and it shows him putting the hat on. [During the whole scene he's trying to decide how to wear the hat, hence it being off his head in one shot and on in the next. There's one continuous shot where it shows him wearing the hat with the peak forwards, then he takes the hat off and puts it back on with the peak backwards.]

The viewer can see the materials used to paint the bobsled (stencil, paint, brushes, etc.), but who did they find to pound out all the dents and smooth out the bumps in the body? [They either did it themselves or paid someone to do it. Just because it doesn't show this happening in the movie doesn't mean the sled miraculously reshaped itself.]

In the movie Cool Runnings after they are in Calgary and John Candy is try to get the team registered in the Olympics while he is in the Olympic building you can see a man holding back the crowd. The man is wearing a grey suit with orange stripes - a few seconds after he is holding back the crowd you can see him walking up the steps. [So once the crowd began to be under control, he left to pursue other duties. Not so unusual, and not necessarily a mistake.]
