 A drifter wandered on to the set at the desert town of Andamooka in  northern South Australia with a stick of dynamite. The cast and crew  of about 30 people spread rapidly all but for one special effects  man who noticed that the stick had no detonator. The local wag threw  the it under a truck where many people were hiding from the  incident. The man was fined $200 (Aust) when it went to court.
