Other mistake: In the beginning when Sylvester loses grip of the woman's hand, she falls to her death. Immediately after that they show the reaction of the helicopter pilot...and he's laughing.

Suggested correction: He's grimacing and shaking his head "no", not laughing.

Oh no... He's definitely smiling and laughing. It's unmistakable.

Continuity mistake: When the jet crashes, we see a shot from below showing a large portion of it poking out over the cliff. We then cut to the parachutists, and when we cut back to the jet, we see that very nearly all of it is safely on rock.

Question: I'd like to know who performed the stunt near the end of the movie where Gabe jumps from the cliff as he runs from Qualin in the helicopter, and then catches the ladder on the way down. I thought that looked incredible.

Answer: There are two stunt doubles for Mr Stallone on imdb.com, their names are Mark De Alessandro and Jeff O' Haco. The site doesn't specify who did what.
