Corrected entry: After the Ancient device releases O'Neill and he collapses, Carter checks his pulse. She is kneeling to his left, yet reaches for the right side of his neck. Anyone trained in basic first aid and CPR (as Carter should be, with her field medic training) is taught that you always check the pulse on the same side of the body where you are sitting, so as not to risk compromising the person's airway by accidentally compressing the windpipe.
Corrected entry: When Jack is on the Asgard planet, there are a couple of shots of a red corridor/hall with a lot of Asgard standing around - this set is taken directly from the later levels of the Nintendo 64 video game 'Perfect Dark' with minor colour changes to the set.
Correction: This can't be, because this episode was originally shown in 1998 and Perfect Dark wasn't released until 2000.
Correction: I have had First Responder training, which is a step above Basic First Aid/CPR in the levels of EMT training, and there was never a mention of this. If you know what you're doing when you check for a carotid pulse, then you run no risk of compromising the patient's airway as the arteries you're supposed to be pressing on are well behind the trachea.
