Among the artifacts that fall out of the crates Spalko and gang push aside in the warehouse scene is Moses's staff. Property master Douglas Harlocker modelled it after the staff wielded by Charlton Heston as Moses in Ten Commandments. Incidentally, the Indiana Jones videogame, 'Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings', is about Indy's quest for Moses's staff.

The scene where Indy escapes a nuclear blast by hiding in a lead-lined refrigerator spawned the phrase "nuking the fridge", which is analogous to jumping the shark, an idiom to describe when a TV series has passed its creative peak and its overall output has begun to decline.

The Crystal Skull that everyone carries around and the Crystal Skull that is attached to the head of the Crystal skeleton at the end are actually of different sizes. Director Steven Spielberg said that no one would notice.
