Behind the scenes during the filming of Head, 1968.

“The first thing I heard was Mike, ‘All I can say is, “Man, am I in pain!”’ And you could that he was, so the director yelled, ‘OK bring ‘em down and let’s see if we can adjust those things.’‘Those things’ were harnessed attached around their waists to enable them to seemingly fly through the air. […] ‘Shoot’ yelled the director and Mike, Micky and Peter began flailing while two men shoved the huge hose down past them in a gigantic rush of noise. ‘Wow, was that wild’ exclaimed Micky. ‘Well, it scared the #%&$# out of me,’ groaned Mike. I have to admit the whole thing was rather frightening, but the director seemed intent on making the guys do it themselves rather than using stand-ins. All four of them do almost all of their own stunt work in the movie. […] I kept watching Mike, wondering how much more he’d be able to take, until finally they let him down for a few minutes rest. Peter and Micky seemed OK; but Mike looked like he felt awful. […] Mike picks up a large cigarette butt and says ‘Well, it’s not one of your standard brands.’ This line turned out to be quite a problem as they argue over how to deliver the line — should it be obvious what they are talking about or subtle. Mike wanted to do it like W.C. Fields, one of the all time great comedians and one of Mike’s idols, would have done it, but he and the director couldn’t seem to agree. At one point, Peter seemed about to reach the breaking point of his patience, when he suddenly walked to the end of the set, stomped up and down once, shouted, took a deep breath, turned and said ‘OK, I’m ready.’I learned later that Peter was actually feeling quite bad also. A week earlier he had had an abscessed tooth, which had swollen up one whole side of his face and they hadn’t had time for him to take a week off and wait for it to go back down, so he’d had the infected tooth removed without missing a day of work. On top of this, he felt a cold coming on and was stuffing down cold tablets all day. Micky’s only problem seemed to be an insatiable hunger.” - Carol Deck, Flip, August 1968 “[In the vacuum bag] Michael finds […] the butt end of a marijuana cigarette. He wanted to say, ‘Oh, look, a marijuana cigarette.’ Bob [Rafelson] said, ‘No, no, it’s gotta be El Zoomo.’ Which is what happens [in the Final Cut of Head]. Micky pokes the thing and says, ‘El Zoomo.’ We thought saying, ‘Oh, look, a marijuana cigarette,’ was far and away hipper. Bob was concerned just saying marijuana on a movie was enough to get us in trouble. We actually went off to cool our heels. We were three or four hours screwing our minds around to going with what he said. ‘And if you don’t like it, get off my set’: another example of Bob’s exquisite delicacy with his actors and his extraordinary human relations skills.” - Peter Tork, Shindig Magazine, 2010

There might be some trepidation, but don’t let hesitation Deprive you of hope and try to replace it with fear You just roll with the flow, wherever it goes Even if it rolls out of here
