Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe five-minute skydiving scene, where Maxwell Smart falls from the airplane, and is saved by Agent 99, was actually shot in real life. Led by Norman Kent, a world famous skydiving photographer, a team of professional skydivers shot the entire sequence over a total of seventy jumps during a four-week period, always jumping during sunset and sunrise, to keep continuity in the scene.
- GoofsIn the combat training range, the first scene shows a less-lethal ammunition round being fired, and the round hits an agent. The slow-motion scene shows the entire round being propelled through the air, including the casing. In reality, only the "slug" would be propelled, and the bullet casing would be ejected from the weapon.
