                                                      Last Crusade Trivia

1. Begins with a shot of a rock in Utah which is reminiscent of the Paramount Pictures logo.

2. As you can see from the picture above, the creators of the film or the actor who played Adolf Hitler slacked off on some detail research. Hitler was actually left-handed, contrary to the movie's portrayal, in which he autographs Indy's grail diary with his right hand.

3. The giraffes on the train in the opening segment, which is a flashback to Indy's childhood, are actually audio-animatronic giraffes.

4. Harrison Ford's and Sean Connrey's ages in real life are only twelve years apart.

5. Harrison Ford cut his chin in a car accident in Northern California when he was about 20. In the movie, this cut is explained by young Indiana Jones cutting his chin with a whip.

6. Walter Donovan was played by Julian Glover, and Donovan's wife was played by Glover's wife.

7. The motorize replica of a Mark 7 German tank (World War I) created for the tank chase was actually a somewhat rare item. Only eight such tanks had actually been constructed for the war. With the only surviving tank a nonfunctioning museum piece, the crew of "Last Crusade" was forced to build their full-scale model from scratch.
