Kind of true.
When Spielberg made Duel, when they were recording the sound of the big truck going over the cliff at the end and crashing into the rocks, it was done in slow motion.
Spielberg used some of the soundtrack of an old dinosaur movie (specifically the dinosaur roars), and slowed that down, overlaying it on top of the sound of the truck breaking up...so as to give the impression of a great lumbering beast in it's death throes.
He later borrowed some of that same sound from that sequence in Duel for the death throes of the shark at the end, as it was dying and sinking to the bottom of the ocean.
