    Legend has it that the stuntman broke his back in 3 places doing this, they considered doing a re shoot of the stunt but decided to keep it instead.

      Lone wolf Mcquade I found two versions and I was right. One version had it one didn't. Quote... Be careful sheriff don't let gator bite your gonads. Definitely has two meanings

    Great stunt by Hal, and yes this stunt did nearly kill him, I was wondering, is that a Hurst shifter in a Ford???????

      Frank Denardo they look similar, but I think this is Bo Hopkins.

    Obviously misjudged the speed they needed...

    • @71plymouth.
      @71plymouth. 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I think the stuntman was Hal Needham (who later made Smokey and the Bandit,which originally was to be Jerry Reed in a B-movie) and yes he did misjudge and crash that poor Ford 500. Burt Reynolds ran,jumped in the water,swam over and helped him out of the car. He was ok.

    I think Hal broke his back or spleen on that jump

    • @lonewolfmcquade1079
      @lonewolfmcquade1079 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Randy Johnson That jump wudda been nice if he got all 4 tires on the barge

    • @randyjohnson805
      @randyjohnson805 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lone wolf Mcquade Hal Needem said the captain of the barge took off a little bit early. And he said he thought he could make it

    • @lonewolfmcquade1079
      @lonewolfmcquade1079 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Randy Johnson I Wud definitely say before I looked into That stunt Something went wrong with timing because If he hadn't left early he wudda nailed all 4 wheel s NO PROBLEM , THIS is definitely my favorite BURT Reynolds car Movie I just discovered 2 great Reynolds movie that NOBODY talk s about the Hustle 1975 n Shamus 1972 2 GREAT Underrated film s of BURT

    • @randyjohnson805
      @randyjohnson805 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Lone wolf Mcquade Shamus yes and the second no way I have heard of that...my two that are very underated are Sharkey's machine. Outstanding but don't bother unless is unedited. Another home run was or could have been this sequel. The movie Gator. It's Burt's first that he directed. It completely shows Jerry Reed can act.One of the few roles he takes serious.Instead of car chases it's got some of the best boat chases ever.It seems to me that the movie live and let die had the same speed boat experts as the movie Gator

    • @lonewolfmcquade1079
      @lonewolfmcquade1079 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes I love Sharkys Machine n I also like Malone 1987 that was another underrated film pared up with long time friend Laura Hutton , n yes Gator was great I just wish it had 1 good chase in the film but still was a great movie, check out the Hustle 1975 n Excellent film
