Terminator: 20 Easter Eggs And References You Must See

6. A Paramedic From The Third Film Appears In Salvation

You might recognise Michael Papajohn for his role in Spider-Man's iconic origin story, from Sam Raimi's first superhero flick: he's the mugger who shoots Peter Parker's Uncle Ben, sending him on a life of crime-fighting. He also reprises that role in terrible parody film Superhero Movie, but the less said about that the better. Far more interesting is the fact that Papajohn had a brief role as Paramedic #1 in Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines, and then returned in Terminator Salvation as gang leader Carnahan. Possibly a coincidence...or perhaps this is how terrible Judgement Day was, turning a member of the emergency services into a douche who harasses women.
