Fascinating stuff.
To add, Herzog's documentary about the making of Fitzcarraldo, where they drag a steamboat over a mountain is called Burden of Dreams, which I'm sure inspired Nalle's naming of his 9A Lapnor project.
On the anecdote about threatening Klaus Kinski. In My Best Fiend, his documentary about his relationship with Kinski, Herzog recalls that near the ending of production of Aguirre, Kinski was having a tantrum and threatened to leave the production. He was packing his things into a speed boat and Herzog told him he had a rifle and by the time the boat got to the next bend in the river he'd have 8 bullets in his head. I don't think anyone who's seen the documentary would doubt that he was being sincere or blame him.
