Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Patrick Swayze performed many of his own stunts despite being in his mid-40s, including the motorcycle sequences. He broke his leg during filming but finished the shoot.
This was one of the last major studio films to rely almost entirely on practical vehicle effects before CGI car chases became standard. Every crushed semi is a real truck they destroyed.
