From the Bruce’s breaking down in salt water to sailing boats wrecking setup or active shoots to the studio finding out they were writing the next days script every night.

Dreyfus was on Letterman years ago telling about how everyone in Martha’s Vineyard had transistor radios set to the movie’s radio frequencies. Just walking down the street when not shooting he’d hear “The sharks are working but the boat is sinking” to just the opposite. Either the boat was sinking or the sharks weren’t working at any given time.
