Touching the Void (2003) More at IMDbPro »

• Anachronisms: Joe wears a model of Cebe glacier glasses that didn't enter production until 2001.
  
  
• Audio/visual unsynchronized: After Joe pulls the rope completely down while in the crevasse, the cut rope end is frayed. Later when looking at the rope end again, it's a nice clean cut.
  
  
• Continuity: When Joe and Simon are walking across the ridge to the summit, there are already footprints in the snow ahead of them.
  
  

• Continuity: Commenting his descent deeper into the break, Joe says, "I didn't put a knot into the end of the rope. If there was nothing down there, I would fall, and it would be quick." Two minutes before (approx. at 54:30) he is throwing the end of the rope into that break, and as it falls, we see clearly that the knot is properly tied at the end. Just as safety rules prescribe.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: When Joe reaches the bottom of the crevasse (00:59:57) and starts crawling on his stomach towards the sunlight, you can clearly see the blue helmet of another person.
