Continuity: When Briggs slips from Rostov's grasp, an overhead shot shows him falling backward into a cloud, as Rostov lays stretched over the ledge above. But the moment Briggs disappears into the cloud, Rostov suddenly dissolves and you see only an empty ledge. (The next shot, a close-up of Rostov, shows him still laying flat on the ledge.)
