* OneTakeWonder: In the beginning of the movie, whilst Gail is diving, she reaches under a part of the shipwreck and gets her arm yanked by the giant green moray eel, which causes her to scream in pain. In real-life, Jacqueline Bisset's StuntDouble, Jackie Kilbride, dislocated her shoulder doing this scene. A diver was told to pull the stick attached to her wrist from inside the wreck. When the stick appeared, he pulled with all of his might (as instructed). The scene was done in one take, with multiple cameras, as there was no chance (or need) for repeating it.
* NoStuntDouble: Though Creator/NickNolte and Jacqueline Bisset, for authenticity, did many of the underwater scenes themselves, the more dangerous sequences were still performed by stunt doubles.

This made producer Peter Guber very happy because he felt that the more chemistry the two leads had, the better the perilous dramatic scenes involving them would work in the movie.
