Corrected entry: When Vern and Gordie and running from the train, Gordie is behind Vern and pushes him off the tracks when they jump at the end. He jumps after Vern, and logically would land on top, but then in the next shot Gordie's landed underneath him.

Corrected entry: When Vern loses the comb through the tracks and it falls into the river, its obvious there is a wire or a mechanism to pull it out of his pocket because it slides forward really fast when he's barely moving.
Correction: Actually, there was no trick used here. You can see that every movement Jerry O'Connell makes pushes the comb out of his pocket a little further, but with no help from wires or strings.

Correction: Simple explanation. Even if they had jumped onto flat ground, the impact would have made them tumble a little bit, but they jumped onto a steeply inclined hill, which would cause them to roll down it a small distance together, with Gordie ending up underneath Vern.
