TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Aron Ralston filmed a daily video diary while he was stuck in the canyon; parts of the video diary were shown on a televised special about his entrapment, however most of the footage has only been shown to close friends and family and is kept in a bank vault for safety. Before shooting began both James Franco and director Danny Boyle were allowed to view the footage in order to accurately portray the events in the movie.

The camcorder used by James Franco in the film was the actual one Aron Ralston used when he was trapped in Blue John Canyon.

Since Ralston did not tell anyone that he was going hiking, no one knew that he was missing or even where to look for him. However, this lesson seems to have been lost on readers of his biography and audiences of the subsequent movie. One of them, 64 year old Amos Wayne Richards ventured to the same spot Ralston did also without telling anyone. While climbing down a 70-foot-deep ravine, Richards slipped and fell the last 10 feet to the bottom. During the fall, he dislocated his shoulder, bumped his head on a rock, and broke his leg. It took Richards four days to crawl out of the ravine and by the time the park rangers found him he had no remaining water. In the end, it was the hysteria of 127 Hours fans that saved Richards. The park rangers at Blue John Canyon knew where to look for Richards because of the influx of hiking enthusiasts to the canyon since 127 Hours was released. In fact, since 2005 (Ralston's biography came out in 2004), more than two dozen rescues have been performed in that same area - between 1998 and Ralston's incident there were none.

In the last scene, Aron Ralston's real-life friends and family are by the swimming pool.

Terry Mercer, who portrays the helicopter pilot that rescues James Franco as Aron Ralston in the film, was the actual helicopter pilot that rescued Aron Ralston.

Popular Dialogues

"Aron Ralston: You know, I've been thinking. Everything is... just comes together. It's me. I chose this. I chose all of this. This rock... this rock has been waiting for me my entire life. In its entire life, ever since it was a bit of meteorite a million, billion years ago up there In space. It's been waiting, to come here. Right, right here. I've been moving towards it my entire life. The minute I was born, every breath I've taken, every action has been leading me to this crack on the earth's surface."

"Aron Ralston: [as Brian Stephenson] Good morning, everyone! It is 7 o'clock here in Canyonlands, USA! And this morning on the boulder, we have a very special special guest, self-proclaimed American superhero, Aron Ralston! Let's hear it for Aron! [nods to his imaginary audience] Aron Ralston: [as himself] Hey. Hi. Oh, gosh, it's... It's a real pleasure to be here. Thank you. Thank you! Heh. Eh-heh. Em... Hey, can I say hi to my mom and dad? [as Stephenson] Aron Ralston: Mom and Dad! Mustn't forget Mom and Dad. Right, Aron? [as himself] Aron Ralston: Yeah, that's right. Eh... Hey, Mom. I'm really sorry I didn't answer the phone the other night. If I had, I would have told you where I was going, and then... Well, I probably wouldn't be here right now. [as Stephenson] Aron Ralston: That's for sure! But like I always say... your supreme selfishness is our gain. Thank you, Aron. Anyone else you'd like to say hi to? [as himself] Aron Ralston: Ehm... Well, Brion at work. Brian: Hi, Aron! Aron Ralston: [as himself] Hey! Eh... I probably won't be making it into work today. [Stephenson-Aron and the audience laughs] Aron Ralston: [as Stephenson] Get a load of this guy! Oh, wait. Hold on... We've got a question coming in from another Aron in Loser Canyon, Utah! Aron asks... [as caller] Aron Ralston: Am I right in thinking that even if Brion from work notifies the police, they'll put a 24-hour hold on it before they file a Missing Persons report? Which means you won't become officially missing until midday Wednesday, at the earliest? [as himself] Aron Ralston: Yeah. You're right on the money there, Aron. [the audience laughs] Aron Ralston: Which means, I'll probably be dead by then. [the audience laughs again] Aron Ralston: [as Stephenson] Aron from Loser Canyon, Utah. How do you know so much? [as caller] Aron Ralston: Well, I'll tell you how I know so much. I volunteer for the rescue service. You see, I'm something of a... well, a big fucking hard hero. [the audience laughs] Aron Ralston: And I can do everything on my own, you see? [as Stephenson] Aron Ralston: I do see! Now... Is it true that despite, or maybe because you're a big fucking hard hero... you didn't tell anyone where you were going? [as himself] Aron Ralston: Yeah. That's absolutely correct. [as Stephenson] Aron Ralston: Anyone...? [as himself, shaking his head] Aron Ralston: Anyone. [as Stephenson] Aron Ralston: Oops... [the audience laughs] Aron Ralston: [silently repeats] Oops. Oops."
