- Broke his shoulder while filming Touchdown! (1931), which cost him the role of MGM's Tarzan, which went to Olympic swimmer Johnny Weissmuller. The injury also caused him to fail to qualify for the 1932 Olympic trials while holding the world record for shot put.
- He enjoyed parasailing and skydiving, leaping out 10,000 feet over Lake Tahoe when he was 96.

- [About his role in El tesoro de la Sierra Madre (1948)] I wish I would have had more to do in the film. I hated to get killed so soon.
- [In a 1988 interview] I feel very sincerely that age isn't computable by number of years. It is truly only a state of mind. We know many young people of 90 and old people of 20. By my mind, I'm still young!
