Terminal Velocity

Factual error: Near the end of the film, after Ditch and Krista use the reserve parachute, they fall in a windfarm. The windmills are spinning fairly slowly. After the fight Ditch pulls Pinkwater's parachute out. The wind pulls Pinkwater back towards the fan. Before he gets chopped up there is a shot of the fan blades spinning very fast and powerfully. A light breeze would not cause these blades to spin in this fashion. A hurricane would be needed for those blades to chop up a human.

Factual error: When the car is loaded on the plane near the end it is not secured in any way. Upon take off this would have smashed through the back of the plane or badly damaged the rear loading doors causing the plane to land, we know this as Ditch jumps in it later and drives forward, pinning the bad guy to the bulkhead, then he reverses out of the plane.
