Mistakes

Factual error: During the car chase at the beginning, they are chasing a car on Bigelow Blvd., less than a mile from downtown Pittsburgh and we see a big, brick hill they chase down. This hill is actually in Duquesne, PA more than ten miles south east of Pittsburgh. Then as you're watching they are still in the same area as Bigelow Blvd., in the Polish Hill section of Pittsburgh.

But his head comes out of the water. So the shells got wet anyway.

Answer: Because Hollywood. Most ammo is perfectly fine after getting dunked underwater. I had a bucket full of shells filled with snow, and I didn't find them until springtime. They worked just fine. Most people don't know that, though. Evidently, neither do movie makers.

Answer: That's not true but the shotgun shells he was using are waterproof.
