A Heartfelt Thanks to:
Carson, Audrey, Stephen, and Naya: I randomly approached you while you were climbing at Smith Rock and you said yes to this ridiculous idea. How amazing and awesome are you!
Chris: thank you for showing me around Phil’s Trail.
Syd: thanks for the Artistic direction and Sabotage logo!
Derk (and Rosa): let’s be completely honest, Cap’n there was no other more demanding role. You not only jumped into a swimming pool in Autumn but convinced your wonderful wife to do the same. Can’t thank you enough. I’ve watched the original video several hundred times and every time thought “who the hell am I gonna get to do this scene?!” Thank you for stepping up! This is probably the best scene in the entire film.
Bend Inn and Suites: getting a hotel to allow us to film this scene was nearly impossible. Thank you for allowing us to do this. I remember explaining this to the housekeepers in my pretty-good Spanish… I’m going to make a movie about drug dealers, but not real drug dealers. We have cocaine but not real cocaine. There’s a cop but he’s not really a cop…
Royce: you provided a continuity that was much needed in all these videos and I thank you for knowing the assignment and being so available.
Bachelor Ski Resort: Thank you for letting me film onsite!
Sparrow Bakery: Yummy Ocean Rolls!
Dough Nut: Yummy doughnuts!
Brian: You have the most epic truck in Bend. Only natural that you would be the Bounty Hunter.
Fish: I honestly think you looked most like the original BBoys. With even my limited video directing experience I can see how QT would want to have certain people in every film.
Webb: From the beginning of watching the original video I had you in mind for a chase scene. Thanks for being awesome!
Nate: WTH! You showed up to work one day and BAM you were in a music video. F’in nailed it, man!
Bevel Craft Brewing/Valerie/Justin: Your support for this was immediate and so appreciated. What says Bend more than craft brewing tanks and disc golf?!
Troy and Stachey: A Doodle with a built-in mustache? A Bend Sabotage remake star is born!
Nick: Dude. I hated to edit out your actual jump. But I don’t want any kids imitating it and getting hurt. They wouldn’t have known that you were literally a licensed, credentialled oceanic lifeguard. We don’t have the Johnny Knoxville lawyers or disclaimers. Sorry man.
Owen: First in the pool! Thanks for taking a jump. You were the first scene I filmed for this ridiculous endeavor. I had no idea what to do but roll camera and watch you shred it as the Wave Cop. Well done!
Bend Poker Room: Colter, you’re the man! Thanks for letting us commandeer one of your tables and a distraction from your Poker games.
Brando: always knew I could count on you to throw me in the trunk of my own car!
Steve: I feel like you’re the heart and soul of our banker Poker games so it was only natural to have you there for this.
Royce: Thank you for helping bust this bad guy.
Marnie: That’s how poker goes. You win the first game and then never again! Thanks for bringing your muscle to the party.
Todd: Literally rolled off the greatest Baseball game ever in history to play poker and throw a man in a trunk. Epic weekend!
City of Bend: those twinkling lights are really a treat.
Kris: the first responder footage really was key!
