Anachronisms
Several anachronisms include: Aluminum beer cans were not in use in the '50s; hardhats in the 50's were made of steel, not plastic as portrayed. The helmet worn during the Caesar's Palace jump was a modern helmet with extra padding around the face not yet available in 1968. During the skating scene, Knievel wore skates not available at the time.
In the scene set in 1950 a theater marquee displays The Wild One (1953).
