Crazy Credits: We know about 1 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
Two years ago there had never been a British Martial feature film, now there are several completed and others soon to be completed. We always had world class fighters, who have been winning and bringing back the medals in nearly ever discipline at the hightest levels. Now with the explosion in production of martial arts films and reality tounrament and combat TV shows in Britian, the UK has now become the centre of attention and taken a giant leap onto the world stage as a new hotbed of talent, before and behind the camera, which has enabled the producers of F.I.S.T. to fully realize the scripts full potential. Without that firm competitve base and the national explosion of UK production F.I.S.T. would never have had to really push the envelope, because without the competition, we really would not have been challenged and driven to making the truly wild and original all action battle fest that has gestated and mutated over the years of production into what has become F.I.S.T. A truly national effort for which we are truly thankful.
