Steve McQueen: Bullitt chase scene GPS tracked

Last February I posted an article about car chases: Car chases in movies: Bullitt, Terminator 2, Mad Max 2…. I mentioned several movies with great chase scenes like Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Thelma & Louise, The Blues Brothers, The French Connection, Grindhouse/Death Proof… And of course, Bullitt.

Steve McQueendriving his Mustang GT390 at full speed in the streets of San Francisco was captivating. But as you maybe know if you carefully watched the scene (or if you know the place because you actually live in San Francisco), the chase has been often cut from one place to another although the continuity didn’t really suffer of the cuts. Knowing I like Bullitt and especially the chase scene, a friend sent me a link showing the in-movie car chase scene AND its GPS track.

So you won’t miss a second of it, very cool
