I read where Jonathan Winters wanted to do the stunt where the water tower falls, but Stanley Kramer would not let him due to safety concerns. Jonathan Winters hurt Phil Silvers twice on the set, but I did not see anything where Winters himself was hurt (other than his feelings when he remained tied up in the chair through a lunch break on the set).
What did you find?
