 During the filming of a scene where Denise Crosby (qv) hits  Eddie Murphy (I) (qv) in the stomach with a rubber baseball bat  prop, Murphy was afraid Crosby would actually hit him instead of  stopping about a foot away like all staged movie blows. She  demonstrated her control on both Walter Hill (I) (qv) and  Nick Nolte (qv) to assure Murphy, but ended up hitting him anyway  during a take.
