Visible crew/equipment: Just as we see the flashback with Amanda, Jill looks at where Amanda stood, then turns to where John was stood and sighs. As she does, a boom shadow is seen to move across her hair. (00:23:15)
Visible crew/equipment: When Jigsaw says to William, that "success lies in the failure of your adversary", a boom mic can be seen reflected in the TV screen. (00:27:50)
Factual error: We see Hoffman has to use pliers and force to remove Strahm's hand from the grill. However, since the hand is freshly severed, rigor mortis would not have set in, and he should have been able to remove it with ease. (01:09:30)
Trivia: Saw 2, Saw 3 and this movie are the only two movies that have an undetermined time between the end of the previous movie and it's beginning. Saw 3, 4 and 5 all occurred over the space of around a week.
Question: Here's an interesting thought; Debbie was provided with a small power saw and told that to prevent a pipe piercing her skull, she would have to get a key, which is revealed to be in William's side. What was to stop her from simply using the saw to cut off the spear on her chest? Couldn't she have cut it off her chest, and had the harness taken off later?

Chosen answer: It's possible, but unlikely. 1) She was under great distress and might not have thought of that. 2) It would be easier (and more importantly, quicker) to cut through Easton's soft skin than the spear. 3) There is a good chance that tampering with the spear might have made it go off.
