Continuity mistake: When Caroline's car arrives at the hotel, the amount of snow on the hood changes between shots, despite it not snowing.
Continuity mistake: When David is in the steam bath, his hair is messed up. A shot later, it's neatly brushed backwards.
Revealing mistake: When a huge avalanche falls on the red skier, the scenes of the snow falling are scratched and full of dirt, revealing it's stock footage.
Other mistake: When Bruce escapes from the avalanche by hanging on a tree, his movements are played at a normal speed, but the avalanche wave (superimposed footage) is moving at a slow speed.
Audio problem: When Bruce is being interviewed, his voice and the journalists' either don't match their lips or they sound without them moving their mouths. (00:05:22)
Audio problem: When David is in the steam bath talking on the phone, during the angle shot from behind, his voice is completely different as well as the background noise, much cleaner. It was very obviously dubbed. (00:39:40)
Continuity mistake: When the last skier is picking up speed, there's a close-up of the people on the bleachers staring at the sky and moving their heads along. However, he doesn't jump until several seconds later.
Continuity mistake: When David arrives to save Caroline who's hanging off the broken bridge railing, in the wide angles her feet are dangling and her arms are stretched, while she is struggling for her life. However when David looks at her, her arms and legs are bent and she seems to be safely sitting. Seemingly some sort of safety chair.
Continuity mistake: After the kid jumps, when his dad is about to jump, he is holding the chairlift's iron bar, but in the immediate close-up he is holding the upper cable.
Revealing mistake: When Caroline (Mia Farrow) is hanging off the broken bridge railing, in the wide angles she is replaced by an obvious stunt. Furthermore, when David rescues her, the stunt woman is always acting calmed and natural, even helping David, as opposed to the close-ups of Farrow, nervous and trembling.
Visible crew/equipment: During the snow bike race, the pole where the camera is mounted is reflected on the woman's helmet.
Continuity mistake: When Tina is in her room and the whole place starts to shake, there's a close-up of the stuff on her night table moving. A shot later, the stuff is back to where it was before the avalanche, all neatly set.
Visible crew/equipment: When David and Caroline step outside the disco and argue, a stage light is reflected on the glass door behind.
Revealing mistake: After the birthday dinner and dance, the exterior shots of snow falling show the snow being sprayed from a lower point on the right side of the screen. Shot changes and now it's being sprayed from somewhere behind the bleachers.
Continuity mistake: When the old lady hands David her birthday cake, her hands are either on top of the table or away, depending on the shot.
Continuity mistake: Before David and Nick sit by the counter, a waitress rushes by. Several seconds later, they stand up and the waitress is now behind them, walking hurriedly again.
Continuity mistake: When the avalanche crashes against the cafeteria building, there's a man next to the windows wearing a white shirt. When the shot changes, he's got a brown jacket.
Continuity mistake: The editing of the ski jumping competition is a disaster movie in itself: first we see #35 jumping and wearing a helmet while wearing a red and blue suit. Then comes #6, who starts to ski wearing a helmet and a marine blue suit, but when he jumps it's skier #35 again but now his helmet is gone. Now comes a new skier, #26, wearing a dark blue suit. When he picks up speed he is suddenly no-helmet #35 and -drumroll - when he jumps he's now yet a new skier, #27.
Deliberate mistake: When the father jumps on the firemen's jumping sheet, one can see that he's very few centimetres away from safely landing on it. However, in the immediate close-up he crashes against the floor, which is more dramatic, but ludicrous nonetheless.
Revealing mistake: When the father and son climb out of the chairlift and hold on for their lives, the kid is very obviously replaced with a grown-up stunt.
