"
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 "

oh yeah, and don't try this at home.

 

Hey I've done that before...on Midnight Club 2 wink1.gif

 

Nothing like the sounds of an angry Ferrari V12

 

dude that's the coolest video i've seen on video google. cool stuff man. that driver is truly amazing!! it really takes talent and balls to do that. my favorite part is when he almost runs the pigeons over... hahaha.

for 1978 that's one coool street race!! and the ending is perty funny.

 

It's funny because I was just driving down the same streets 2 days ago. I post pics up soon.

But it had to be sometime in the morning because ussually the traffic is INSANE. Even in that time period.

 

I have no idea how he got any traction on those roads. They're like some kind of look good square stone. It seems like those roads would be way to rough. Very nice video.

 

I think it's fake. At least the speeds they say he's going. Look at the trees when they go by. They definately don't seem like they're flying by at over 100mph. More like 60. Another good judgement is when he's on the straightaways. As he drives by the other cars, it looks like he's only going 20mph faster than them.

I've flown by cars faster than that on highways. lmao.gif

 

How bout when he almost smoked that person walking past him, or the dude that ran to get outta the street. Damn how could nobody have called the cops and said there is some crazy dude blazin' down the streets. However, that cat is one smooth wheel-man.

 

it might be fake though, jongtr is right, those pigeons would have been creamed.

 

you bastard i got a boner now and my woman is at her house.... Looking for my cat here kitty kitty...
