There were a LOT of technical problems in the making of Jaws (1975). So many that the crew nicknamed the movie Flaws. The biggest problem was that the mechanical sharks kept breaking. Saltwater kept getting into the mechanisms.

Filming a movie at sea also posed many problems. Cameras were damaged by the water, other boats would zoom by during takes, and the set -- the boat called the Orca -- actually started sinking once, with all the actors on it!
