Aron's Friend

This film is the second film directed by Danny Boyle to contain a time denomination in the title - the first being 28 Days Later... (2002) (he also acted as producer on 28 Weeks Later (2007)).

Katie Featherston auditioned for the role of Kristi.

Aron Ralston became a motivational speaker. He was busy in November of 2011. Some of his activities included: On November 16, 2011, he was the final keynote speaker for the 2011 Financial & Insurance Conference Planners Annual Conference, in San Antonio, Texas. On November 28, he spoke at the Fayetteville Town Center at the University of Arkansas.

In the final scene of the film, when Aron is swimming in the family pool, his arm is gone in close up shots however when the angle changes to a birds eye view directly above, both arms are visible as he swims.

When Aron is watching the film of Kristi and Megan in the pool on his camera, it moves too far to the left, so a hand is seen pushing the camera back into shot. This can't be Aron's hand as he's holding the camera.

After crashing with his bike in the beginning of the movie, Aron clearly lies a couple of feet away from it. When he takes a photo of himself a few seconds later, however, he suddenly lies with his head on top of the bike.

Aron Ralston: Good morning, everyone! It's 6:45 Tuesday morning in BJ Canyon! The weather is great. I figure by now that Leona, my housemate - Hi, Leona! - has missed me hopefully since I didn't show up last night. Another hour and a half they'll miss me for not showing up at work... Hi, Brion at work! Best case scenario is they notify the police and after a 24 hour hold they file a report, a missing person's report. Which means noon tomorrow it's official that I'm gone. I do still have the tiniest bit of water left. Well, actually, I've resorted... I've had a couple pretty good gulps of urine that I saved in my Camelbak. I sort of let it distill... It tastes like hell. So, it's 70 hours since I left on my bike from Horseshoe Trailhead during which time I have consumed 3 liters of water, a couple of mouthfuls of piss...

Aron Ralston: Don't lose it. Aron, do not lose it.

Eric Meijer: You should stop and rest.
