Mistake Continuity: In the last scene when they are all on the fire escape, there is one part where the landing nearly collapses and Sylvester is seen nearly flying off the landing.  The next immediate shot shows Sylvester fighting for the ladder.  He apparently climbed up the landing and crawled over a bunch of people in a fraction of a second.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Dick Shawn and all the characters find the box of money under the big W, Shawn has just thrown Jonathan Winters out of the hole so he would have room to work. But in the next five edits, Winters is both in the hole helping Shawn struggle with the box and is also shown standing outside the hole observing himself along with the others.

Mistake Continuity: About three quarters into the movie, Sylvester, in his red '62 Dodge Dart convertible, sees brother-in-law Russell Finch and Mr. Hawthorne drive by in a '61 blue Chevy Impala. When Sylvester does a u-turn to give chase, you can see the passenger side of the Dart is already caved-in. A few moments later, when he rams the Dodge into the Chevy, kind of Ben-Hur chariot style, is when the initial damage should have occurred. Evidently, the chase scene was filmed out of order. Also, prior to the chase, the Dodge is shown primarily from the driver's side, perhaps to conceal the damage on the passenger side of the car.

Mistake Other: When the English guy and Russell are in the car watch the background - all of a sudden it changes.

Mistake Continuity: When the couple in the truck are driven off and down the side of the mountain the direction of the truck does not match the direction he steers the truck.

Mistake Continuity: The money in the suitcase is neatly bundled when the Captain takes it. When the suitcase bursts open on the fire escape, individual bills float out over the crowd.

Mistake Continuity: When the fire engine escape ladder begins swaying out of control, the actors and stuntmen are never in the same place on the ladder from scene to scene.

Mistake Continuity: Watch very carefully when Mickey Rooney and Buddy Hacket are on the out-of control plane - there's a scene when we can see Mick wearing headphones (camera shot from behind), and a few seconds later we see them in a front camera shot with no headphones.

Mistake Revealing: At the end, the bodies falling off of the fire engine ladder are obviously dummies.
