Trivia: The stunt of May Day leaping off the Eiffel Tower was originally supposed to be performed twice; once by stuntman BJ Worth and again by Don Calvedt. Worth performed the stunt perfectly on the first attempt, making a second take redundant. However, Calvedt snuck up to the tower the following morning and leapt off it anyway, being spotted by the crew as he did so. He was subsequently fired for almost costing the production's permission to film in Paris.
