Factual error: At the end, When the Jews are in the gas chamber, Zyklon B is dropped in through a vent at the top. While this is correct and represents the method used by the SS, the results are not. In the film it is depicted that the victims are dead within minutes. While this is true to a degree, the actual effects took 15-20 minutes to actually kill. Yes some of the more infirm people will have died quickly but the entire chamber would not have died that quickly.

Factual error: At the very start we see the Swastika flags hanging and they appear to be made of lightweight material. However, they were always made of heavier wool. (00:01:20)

Fast Five (2011)

Factual error: When the bus slams into Brian's car at the start, Brian's car doesn't move an inch. Given the speed and weight of the bus, Brian's car should have been shunted a good distance. (00:01:45)

It's Only Rock and Roll - S4-E4

Factual error: When Del is running out of the pub, him and one other are carrying guitar amp heads and are flinging them about with ease. Heads weigh around 20-30 kg each and would be extremely hard to fling around in such a way as they are. (00:17:00)

The Expendables 2 (2012)

Factual error: As the guys zipline down the electric cables, they continue past every pylon without a problem. Cables are connected to pylons, so the connections to the zipline couldn't move past pylons freely. (00:08:10)

Jeepers Creepers (2001)

Factual error: When the Creeper takes Darry, they are on at least the second story of the building. However Trish can get out to the front of the police station in the time it takes the police to get from one side of the room to the other. (01:17:00)

Saw 3D (2010)

K-9: P.I. (2002)

Factual error: The way the FBI officers, who are trailing Dooley, act is completely unprofessional. The scene where the one has to restrain the other after the sprinkler incident would never happen. (00:29:45)

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Factual error: When Joyce is shooting the MP34 at Angel, she hits a car window. The bullet creates a nice little hole but nothing else whatsoever happens to the glass. The glass should, at the very least, smash. (01:31:45)

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Factual error: After the gas explosion, the entire house is leveled. Not so much as a trace of house left other than a few bricks. There is no way that a gas explosion in a kitchen could level a house that size. (00:51:40)

Sex Drive (2008)

Factual error: When Ian throws the tyre iron and it goes through the cop's window, the window should at least have cracks in the glass. However it doesn't. (01:25:45)

Sex Drive (2008)

Factual error: There are several mistakes relating to the Youtube video from the abstinence talk. Firstly, the user joined two minutes ago, and has 11 videos already. Secondly, his one video has over 5.2 million views, in less than two minutes. (01:17:10)

Factual error: At the very end, there is a shot onboard the rescue boat (that was too late). If you look in the background, you can see the boat is bobbing with the waves, by the way the water is in shot then out, then in, etc. A ship of that size would just break the waves. No way could it bob to the extent it does in the film. A lifeboat you would expect to bob that much but not a ship of that size.

Factual error: Near the end, Melish fires through the wall and kills a German. The blood then streams round the corner way to quickly to be real. It moves at the consistency of water. It then stops abruptly. Not the characteristics of blood.

Nothing to Lose (1997)

Factual error: The lasers shown protecting the office hit objects, like the desk. This should set the alarm off as it crossed and interrupted the laser beam.
