Trivia: While filming his first scene with Jacqueline Bisset, Peter Sellers fired a gun into her face. Although the weapon was loaded with blanks, the shards tore open Bisset's skin nevertheless, leaving blood pouring down her face. The noise of the shot also startled her so much that she dropped the champagne bottle she was holding on her foot. Bisset would later call Sellers her worst leading man.

Trivia: The stunt of May Day leaping off the Eiffel Tower was originally supposed to be performed twice; once by stuntman BJ Worth and again by Don Calvedt. Worth performed the stunt perfectly on the first attempt, making a second take redundant. However, Calvedt snuck up to the tower the following morning and leapt off it anyway, being spotted by the crew as he did so. He was subsequently fired for almost costing the production's ability to film in Paris.
