[SIZE=-1] On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a ... all » Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur. No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit. The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets. Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago. Watch the video, which is insane if your baked http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2851488008488190547 [/SIZE]
you need to see this video they made in stockholm where they purposely get in cop chases. its amazing
That was one wicked assed trip! A Ferrari... that must have been sweet! Could you imagine that trip at an IMAX theatre? The dude must have known the streets of Paris well, although a couple of times it seems like he was going to turn but decided not to. The rendezvous at the end was a nice ending, too. Nice one, highinhouston!
I mean, that was nice and all for 1978 but now a days ive been going down highways with redlights 140mph+ quite a bit with more traffic then in that film dunno about going wrong way on one way roads though
I was thinking the exact sme thing. That takes some balls to drive like that goin the wrong way on one way streets.
