10 Movie Details You Definitely Missed The First Time

10. Homer's Crashed Ambulance Is STILL THERE 17 Years Later - The Simpsons Movie

One of the most iconic episodes of The Simpsons is the season two all-timer "Bart the Daredevil," where Homer (Dan Castellaneta) attempts and fails to jump Springfield Gorge, horribly crippling himself in the process.

The best part of the gag? After Homer is loaded into an ambulance, the ambulance crashes into a nearby tree, sending the gurney rolling out and falling back down the cliff.

This received a sneaky callback 17 years later in The Simpsons Movie, when Homer and Bart jump Springfield George once more and the very same crashed ambulance is briefly visible on-screen for a few fleeting shots.

Beyond the brilliant callback, it's hilarious that the authorities never bothered to tow the totalled ambulance away, and that weather conditions haven't caused it to roll back down the gorge itself.
