Fedora's grave robbing gang included a truck driver who helped recover the Cross of Coronado from a canyon in Utah in 1912.
Biography[]
In 1912, after a young Indiana Jones stole the Cross of Coronado out from under the clutches of Fedora and his gang, he escaped on a horse. However, Fedora signaled the driver, who arrived with the band's truck to pursue Indiana accompanied by Panama Hat in a separate vehicle.[1]
Jones eventually escaped onto a Dunn & Duffy Combined Circus train and the truck driver pulled his truck alongside the train to allow the gang, minus himself, climb aboard to continue their pursuit.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Fedora's truck driver was portrayed by an uncredited performer in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.[1]
Though the man is barely visible in the film itself,[1] the comic book adaptation of the film by Marvel Comics depicts him with a hat.[2]
In LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures, the truck driver, as with Roscoe, is absent, replaced in the role by Rough Rider.[3] In the sequel, the truck driver is again absent as the whole Young Indy sequence is omitted.[4]
