Continuity mistake: When the villains are following Indy through the caves, the old wooden bridge completely breaks and falls apart. However, when they make their escape across the same bridge, it's intact with only a couple of wooden slats broken.
Suggested correction: You can see a goon holding it up when they come back.
The picture you put online to prove it does not prove anything at all. It's a really lousy picture that doesn't serve as any sort of proof because it's too hazy and dark in the picture to see the wooden slats.
Other mistake: In flashbacks, younger Indiana Jones has exactly the same voice as the older one.
Suggested correction: Harrison Ford's voice has always sounded the same. Watch any film he's done.
It's a noticeably "older" voice than in previous films when he was about the age his de-aged self is meant to be. I mean he's now in his 80s not 40s, of course his voice is different! An unavoidable mistake but still clearly different.
Actually, it is easily possible to augment his older voice to sound young. If his older voice is too deep, for example, Ford could merely speak slightly slower when recording the dialogue - and then it could be sped up slightly in the final cut. Or, audio AI can be used to alter voice patterns as desired nowadays (ex. To remove the 'gravelly' aspect of his voice).
Harrison Ford's voice has definitely become pretty gravelly.
Continuity mistake: When Indy arrives in Tangier at Hotel Le Atlantique, it is evening. A party is going on in the hotel while the auction is being held. A discussion starts, and a fight breaks out. They go outside, and all of a sudden, it is daytime.
Trivia: As Sallah leaves Indiana's place, he can be heard singing the same song that he sings in Raiders of the Lost Ark (when Marion gives him a thank-you kiss).
Suggested correction: This is not true, he's actually singing "I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Ice Cream".
Other mistake: Dive boat interior, as the tablet is unboxed, there is a clear lens distortion as Indi looks round to his diver friend and the focus follows - giving a disturbing jolt to the image. (01:08:27)
Suggested correction: It just appears to be the result of the movie doing a slightly unconventional rack focus. I don't think that really qualifies as a mistake. If it does count, it opens far too big a can of worms in terms of various camera techniques being considered "mistakes."
Continuity mistake: While on the boat, Helena does her 7 spades card trick. When she gives Indy a turn, you can see the bottom card is a black 2. When she fans them out, it changes to black king of clubs. Then, in the next shot, it changes to 8 of clubs. (01:16:00 - 01:17:00)
Suggested correction: Not necessarily a mistake. She could be changing those cards by sleight of hand, while moving the 7 of spades into position for the final force. The mistake was not using the 3 of clubs for it.
Continuity mistake: When the staff member at the college runs away from the bad guys to get help, and is quickly shot in the back by Voller's henchman, she falls forward on the floor, face down. Dead. But a short time later, when Indy discovers her body on the floor, he kneels down to attend to her (and looks at his hand to see her blood there), she is now lying face-up on her back.
Factual error: Colonel Weber is not an Oberst, but an SS-Oberführer. Given all his men are also SS, there is no likelihood they would use an army rank to address him, especially one that is junior to his actual rank.
Suggested correction: In fact, Oberst is the literal translation of the word "Colonel" into German. It would not be unusual for Germans to call a colonel by his rank in his native language (even if he is an SS colonel).
There is no chance that SS men would use an army rank when referring to an SS officer. That would be like a sailor calling a naval captain "colonel" because the ranks are equivalent.
