Suggested correction: Superman is moving at speeds fast enough to turn back time. He can spend 5 seconds to yank Jimmy away from the top of a dam he knows is going to be destroyed just to be safe in case he can't actually stop it all from happening again.

The Son of the Sheik picture

Plot hole: Bo Svenson tranqs himself up by mistake just before the Rome-Dubai flight lands. He then wakes up on the same plane in Hong Kong, and returns to the imaginary Persian Gulf sheikdom that was his original destination, on the same day and before dark. It's not how air travel works.
