Revealing mistake: When Benny jumps off the fence, it's obvious it's a stunt person doing it instead.

Continuity mistake: When the fence is about to fall on the dog, it changes camera angles. In each camera angle the fence falls in different directions. Plus when it starts falling, the dog turns around facing the fence, but when it falls on him, he is facing the other way.
