Jaws shaped the imaginations of millions making them very afraid of sharks. Here are some facts about the film, did you know…
- Jaws was originally going to be directed by Alfred Hitchcock (with Charlton Heston as Police Chief Brody).
- The shark's final death cry is sampled from 'The Creature from the Black Lagoon' and was also used as the death cry of the truck in Spielberg's earlier movie 'Duel'.
- The mechanical sharks were named 'Bruce' after Spielberg's lawyer Bruce Ramer.
- To make the real sharks look bigger a midget diver was hired for Hooper's cage sequence.
- Afraid of being drowned by his mutinous crew Spielberg had a motorboat standing by to whisk him away after his last shot.
- At the height of seventies 'Sharkmania' ice cream stands started selling flavours such as 'Jawberry', 'Finilla' and 'Sharklate'.
