* FatalMethodActing: Just barely averted. Keaton had the trope-defining ByWallThatIsHoley prop rebuilt to code so it would look more realistic. This meant that it was a ''very real'' wall which could easily have crushed him - not only that, but the crew measured it wrong and made it too short. Both the cameraman and the director refused to watch the recording of the stunt, and while filming it, the botched prop wall missed Keaton by mere inches.

* RealLifeRelative: Marion Byron could not swim, so the scenes where her character is in the river with Creator/BusterKeaton were filmed with Buster's real-life sister Louise Keaton serving as Marion's {{stunt double}} (the two were both the same size: 4'11"). The water was very cold and during a day of filming Buster and Louise consumed four to five glasses of French brandy to keep them warm.
