French filmmaker Claude Lelouch attached a camera to the front of a Ferrari 275 GTB V-12 and filmed a very famous formula-1 racecar driver (the racecar drivers name has still been anonymous) journeying through Paris, going well over 100 MPH.
Our boy’s very favorite X-box game is car racing in Paris, I can’t begin to tell you how many times they have tried to drive up the Louvre Pyramid, they’re going to love this!
Lelouch confessed to being the driver: “Of course. People were exhilarated by the action but morally outraged by the method. I can’t say I blame them. It was my film, and I was fully prepared to take the risks.” He was also arrested for his exploits. “They took a look at the film, and the chief of police called me in;” Lelouch recounted. “He read me a list of all the offenses I’d committed. It was never-ending. When he finished, he gave me a black look and asked for my driver’s license. He contemplated it for a few moments, then gave it back with a large smile on his face. He said, “I promised I would take your license, but I didn’t say for how long.” I was stupefied. It was a symbolic punishment. Then he added, ‘My children love your little film.’”

I wonder if that’s the truth, or if he’d promised another driver that he’d take the heat, if there was any?
