Continuity mistake: On the boat, after falling down the stairs, the captain returns—only to take two consecutive blows to the jaw with some kind of heavy object. The first hit knocks his hat off, but in the very next shot, it's back on again. (00:02:57)

Continuity mistake: When Bouvar throws the knife, the handle changes colour from ivory to brown between shots. It's a quick moment, but the shift is so obvious - and the shot so close - that it's impossible to miss.

Trivia: When Bouvar throws a knife at Bond, pausing and comparing both shots reveals that the knife ends up lodged lower than before - and there's even a visible black rubber pad where it's been attached, apparently either to prevent damage to the cabinet or to help it stay in place.

Thunderball trivia picture

Trivia: After Bouvar throws the grandfather clock at Bond, 007 stands by the third window - with no paintings nor furniture - staring at him. The scene cuts to a very brief shot where something already feels off. If you pause, you'll notice that Bond has suddenly moved to the second window - with a painting and a cabinet. One shot later, he's several meters back again - standing by the previous third window.

Revealing mistake: When the boat crashes, even though the scene lasts barely two seconds, it's impossible to overlook the absence of the huge stabilizing fin sticking out from the side. Also, the blue draft line is absent. Revealing a different boat was used.
