As we know the Rubber Duck survived the crash off the bridge. So obviously the police and coroners did not find his body in the wreckage when they removed the truck from the river. So why did the authorities belive he was dead and hold the funeral service for him ? Who's body (if any) was in the coffin on the back of the truck ?
shareSomehow, he managed to get away unnoticed. Sometimes bodies are never found after accidents and the police must have stopped looking. Empty funeral coffins are often included for when a body cannot be found.
sharebecause it was in the script. Logically, there was no way someone who survived a crash off a bridge like that could surface and swim away unnoticed. Just one of the many things about this film you'll have to file under "suspension of disbelief"
shareKris Kristofferson killed Jeff Bridges and planted his corpse in the wreckage.
