ALWAYS WANTED TO VISIT PARIS !?
IN 10 MINUTES !!!!?
On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris early in the morning. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes.
No streets were closed for Lelouch who was unable to obtain a permit.
No permit ... No Problems ...
The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running 20 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. Ca c'est Paris!
