Directed by: John Badham
Starring: Wesley Snipes, Gary Busey, Michael Jeter, Yancy Butler
Visible crew/equipment: During the party scene before the jump competition, while the guy in the teal jumpsuit is talking, you can clearly see a cameraman with a Steadicam in the crowd close to the stage.
Visible crew/equipment: On the scene when they land on the roof of the CIA building, they show Busey's character land, then they show the other ski diver landing with Lee. You can see that it's a dummy and not an actor, especially if you pause it.
Factual error: There is a shot with Wesley Snipes and Gary Busey aiming one another just to pull the triggers and discover that the guns are out of ammo. In fact, after the last shot (of the pistol, not the movie) the slide of a semi automatic pistol is retained open by the empty magazine, and doesn't return forward as we can see in the shot (of the movie, not the pistol). The reverse mistake is very common in movies, when the armorer loads just one round to be shot (in the movie as well as the gun) and the actor keeps fighting or menacing with an unloaded, breech opened gun.
Jessie Crossman: People probably told you that Jessie Crossman was the only person skilled enough to jump from a 747.
Pete Nessip: Well, the actual phrase used was "dick brain."
