For a movie that won five Academy Awards and was nominated for an additional seven, 2000’sGladiator was absolutely teaming with glaring errors. Crew members appeared in crowd shots and the appearance of sets changed during scenes, but arguably the worst  mistake was during the re-enactment of the Battle of Carthage in the Colosseum.

After the dust settles around a fallen chariot, a gas cylinder that was used to cause it to flip over can quite clearly be seen. Aside from the fact that it was meant to be impact caused by an opponent that toppled the chariot, gas cylinders certainly weren’t around in the year 180 AD!
