Facts about

The character of Chance Buckman is based on real-life oil well firefighter 'Red' Adair.
John Wayne, Bruce Cabot and Jim Hutton also all starred together in The Green Berets
A burning oil well prompted the owner, present-day billionaire Phillip Anschutz, to call Red Adair, a famous firefighter who later put out the oil well fires during the Gulf War, to put out the blaze. To pay Adair, Anschutz persuaded Universal Studios to pay him $100,000 to film Adair putting out his well fire for "Hellfighters."
