Factual error: When the 3 guys have just safely gone through the rapids, they hear a roaring sound. This is leading to a waterfall. The water around them and the leaves in the water are perfectly still. A few seconds later they are going over the waterfall. A river just before a waterfall would have a strong current leading to the waterfall. this should have been the case with the river, but there was no current whatsoever prior to the waterfall.

Deliberate mistake: When it starts raining so that "things couldn't be worse" according to Seth Green, the younger fat hillbilly pulls out an umbrella. Why would he have one when he is trying to hunt someone down and kill them? This was obviously put in for comedic purposes but doesn't play well in the movie. (01:05:40)

Other mistake: After the funeral, the guys visit the clubhouse. They open the box for DB Cooper's treasure. The blood they used to sign their blood oath is too red to have been 20 year old blood. It should have darkened to deep, deep purple or brown by now. (00:12:40)

Continuity mistake: When Matthew Lillard is talking about not having responsibility and that surfing is what he loves while the guys are by the camp fire, his sweat jacket is unzipped in one shot as he lays back. The next shot it is zipped up completely. After he stands up the zipper is now unzipped halfway down his sweat jacket. (00:26:30)

Continuity mistake: The 3 guys have just gone through some heavy rapids. As the rapids slowed two of them are on top of the canoe. They call out for Tom and then again for Tommy. Between the two call outs the shot changes. In the first shot the river is still flowing swiftly. During the next shot when Tommy is called and found under the canoe, the river is at a stand still. This scene was filmed in 2 different parts of the river. (00:36:50)
