** During the auditions, Uwais got injured while sparring with Alfridus Godfred (the guy who would end up playing the machete guy), as Godfred unexpectedly threw him to the ground full hard, wrecking Iko's knee bad enough to have him four weeks out. Then, on the first day of shooting, Uwais twisted his foot in the scene in which Rama carries Bowo and the injury started all over again. As if this wasn't enough, he also suffered chicken pox around the same time.
** In the scene when Rama stabs a thug in the face, a miscommunication caused the guy to end up stabbed for real in the cheekbone despite it being a prop knife. However, the actor playing the thug that breaks his back over the wall had it much worse: a chain accident caused him to hit the back of his head hard on the wall and then fall five meters down onto concrete. Miraculously, it turned out he was almost fine and could resume shooting in four days.

** As director Evans couldn't find the right studio, he had to build the sets of the refrigerator scene on a badminton court. The thing had a thin roof, which combined with Indonesia's hot climate, made it so hot that crewmen were "dropping like flies". After trying and failing to cool it off with like 25 air conditioners, he just switched to shoot by night.
