My grandfather drives the FIAT 124 and we are Greek and Rémy Julienne drives the OPEL....Many people mistakenly believe that Rémy Julienne drives the FIAT 124 but it was actually my grandfather who was a stuntman back at the time.
As a European above 50, what I like about this scene (or other chase scenes from 1970s Italian movies) is that there are real cars that we saw on the streets when we were young. Bullit chase scene might be magnificent, but for me the Mustang and the Charger belong to an alien world, I never saw one in the flesh. But a FIAT 124 special T and an Opel Rekord are perfectly integrated in my cultural background.
Absolutely....and if you want to make a car chase in Greece in 1971, use iconic sports cars is almost impossible!Fiat and Opel were more easy to find...
As ridiculous as some of the events seem, this is probably one of the most realistic car chases filmed. I'm pretty sure they just put a stunt driver in each car, and told them both that whoever drives the best gets free drinks all night long.
The drivers in this scene are Jean-Paul Belmondo (though in some cuts, it's driven by Rémy Julienne instead) on the red Fiat and Rémo Mosconi on the black Opel, however they used like ten different cars in the making of this scene (you can see it by the different angles of the rearview mirror and the shape of both cars in some cuts), but they are all painted red on the Fiat and black on the Opel so it's not too noticeable.

"Wow, look at these steps. Worn down from a thousand years of people walking up and down, every day..." "Have you seen the film 'Le Casse' by any chance?"
C'est une des rares fois ou Bébel ne gagne pas, mais c'est une scène mythique et quel plaisir de revoir une vieille 124, j'adore cette caisse. Une voiture italienne même populaire, c'est une voiture nerveuse.
la 124 et la 131 c'etait de la bonne caisse ...fiat c'etait de la bonne voiture ...il avait juste un probleme de fonderie ...les bas de caisse pourrisaient....mais bon c'etait de l'acier francais vendu au italien....de l'acier de merde pas cher ...les italiens ne voulaient pas merde le prix alors....
Strange that it’s more exciting to see two absolute mundane cars understeering and struggling with the next corner than seeing a rocket-powered Fiero taking off into space. Justin Lin and Universal Studios, are you watching?
This movie filmed in Greece and particularly in Athens . During the chase the producer had nearly 10 minutes to show the city of Athens were his was fond.
@@Brok. strange to see back projection used in TV or film as late as '71 ! 1963 yes fair enough. But camera equipment either 16mm or even video cameras were becoming more light weight & portable by then.. Great to see relatively humble cars; 124 Special T & Opel Rekord being driven to their limits, by experts!
wow ! the 110 to 170 kph time is damn quick ! Neck snaper 45 hp fiat 126 ! Aside from this trick watching movies with jean paul belmondo when I was a kid was a pleasure !!! We always knew a car chase was going to happen.... He is a great stuntman !
@@lambertlambert7076Si,Belmondo à fait une partie de la course-poursuite, si pour le reste,c'est un cascadeur, c'est tout simplement parce que l'acteur n'avait pas encore rejoint le tournage du film.😉
That was hilarious, the people who was dancing and entertaining the audience, everything was going smoothly and suddenly, the audience heard a loud sound abd they all stand up and see what was happening and they were not focusing on the dancer anymore, everyone got their eyes on the two cars because they thought it was a race but it was in fact a real car chase 😂😂😂this scene is very classic, people thought it was a race but it wasn't a race, it was two car chasing each other
Тоже такие же первые мысли сразу. Когда впервые это видео на ютубе увидел, лет 6 назад, без названия фильма, описания, без ничего - вообще подумал, что это советское кино))
My dear God in heaven! What's this ! Can't believe that this fantastic chase was filmed 50 years ago. You may have new breed of cars capable of such manuerbility but drivers? No way impossible to get such fantastic men!
Interesting, because many years after "the Burglars", Steve McQueen playing in his last movie "The "Hunter" in 1979 at his turn was inspired by scenes coming from a movie played by Jean-Paul Belmondo !! The movie was : "Fear over the City" 1975, also made by Henri Verneuil! A legendary scene in which J.P. Belmondo walked on the roof of a metro in motion in Paris! Steve McQueen did almost the same in Chicago wlaking on the roof of a train! It is official! Steve Mc Queen recognized that he had seen "Fear over the City" and that he did a similary scene in the "Hunter"..
Though I don't know in which city this shoot would have been done,most probably a city of Italy.the red car is a fiat which gave it's entry in the early eighties in India! Even I could find the fiat of sixties on the roads! The chase could be one of the deadliest ever made! Both the cars performed pretty good, thanks to the manufacturers! Though there are many caa manufacturers all over the world, the fiats had a special place among the manufacturers of cars! Not just fiat, the lambrettaa, vespa, alfa romeo etc. had a good reputation around the globe! Whether its thermal power or fertilizer or plastics Italy's industrial might is an excellent model for every developing country!
One of the realistically car chase on film... Use engine sounds, tire squeals, no music in background, and real-world condition (use one car for the shooting)
I owned the same car in the early '70s maxed out at about 114mph drove it all over Europe fast handled well much more fun than my BMWs and 25% of the cost.
Anybody notice the Masarati Ghibli at 9:24? Very interesting mix of vehicles. Early japanese Mazda Familia wagon, Toyota Corona, english, german, french, italian cars and even some U.S. made delivery panel vans.
in 70ies, you had mostly british cars in Britain, french cars in France, german cars in Germany, italian cars in Italy and so on, but all kinds of cars in countries without domestic production
Wow that is by far the best car chase I have ever seen, that was amazing . How many cars were destroyed making this clip or were those cars really that tough???
Oh my gosh, if I could drive like that I... Well, I would be in jail by now! Driving like that in cars with none of the electronic helps we've got today, it takes guts!
You can tell that Red car was Rwd, the way he was drifting around those parked cars in that parking lot. Would be a nice car to own in today's day's, also a classic.
Henri Verneuil wanted a chase car more longer and spectacular than Bullits one...so its a show in the show...Zacharia/Sharif let Azad/Belmondo go away because he knows he have hidden the jewels somewhere ...
My grandfather drives the FIAT 124 and we are Greek and Rémy Julienne drives the OPEL....Many people mistakenly believe that Rémy Julienne drives the FIAT 124 but it was actually my grandfather who was a stuntman back at the time.
Bravo à lui pour sa conduite 👏👏👏👏
@@quattroman88c’est vrai bravo pour lui le film est génial et la course poursuite aussi
Si ok, ma la 124 lho avuta anche io.. più di 100 non andava. Era un auto di shitty
This oś Fiat 125 i think
124

I totally agree. I love the see cars from the 60s and 70s from Europe.
this scene has been record in greece named peiraius
Absolutly, yes it was the car when we where child. Great 70's cultural street genre. ruclips.net/video/e1QlYIrCP8c/видео.html
This is by far the best car chase I've ever seen!
The Blues Brothers were a lot of fun.
@@johncater7861 You're not wrong!
agree, incredible
You try that with today's cars, at the first bump all the check lights go on and the car slows down to 50km/h in "safe mode!
As ridiculous as some of the events seem, this is probably one of the most realistic car chases filmed. I'm pretty sure they just put a stunt driver in each car, and told them both that whoever drives the best gets free drinks all night long.
No CGI, just some questionable editing here and there.
The drivers in this scene are Jean-Paul Belmondo (though in some cuts, it's driven by Rémy Julienne instead) on the red Fiat and Rémo Mosconi on the black Opel, however they used like ten different cars in the making of this scene (you can see it by the different angles of the rearview mirror and the shape of both cars in some cuts), but they are all painted red on the Fiat and black on the Opel so it's not too noticeable.
Why they need a stunt driver when they have Jean-Paul Belmondo?
Ofcourse its possible for only stunt drivers!
sir, we proud of your grandfather 🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪
That was one of the best old car chases i've seen !
And no CGI, eh ?
Agree.....and people think Bullet was amazing.....sheesh....
The Seven Ups was way better. 😉
It was filmed around Piraeus - Greece! Great car chase!!
Not only... Many scenes are from the center of Athens.
Great car chase, the sound, the cars, the expert driving, the sheer energy is breathtaking
Driving by Rémy Julienne.
The great stunt driver Rémy Julienne!!! Him and his team did stunts for movie The Italian Job, six James Bond films and countless others.

@@giannisf793 Nice to have his grand father in a such movie and doing stunts.
Simply the best
Urireieeii i i i tiqjjtjrririri in iee the 8i
Boy, that sound of 60 hp four-cylinders revving up and shooting down the road at 40-50 mph just stirs the blood.
Belmondo don't drive himself every part of this case ?
😁🤣
Doesn’t though!
Now, now, no need to get snarky... :)
And I will have you know that my 1969 Fiat 850 Coupe produced *63* horsepower. So, um, there. LOL!
Among the best car chases in Cinema history.
That wonky rear wheel at 7:50 straightened itself out before the next corner and the bonnet closed itself at 9:00. Well done Fiat!
They broke their suspension and kept driving!
Jean-Paul Belmondo, you were top-notch in every role you played.
Especially your jumps, they were amazing and cool!
Rest in peace.
😢✝️🙏
Absolutely
The Opel driver changes gears without taking his hands off the wheel, brilliant!
very cool chase. Puts most modern movie ones to shame.
One of the most absurd car chases ever filmed - and I LOVE it!
I love Jean Paul Belmondo whom I consider the epitome of excitement
"Wow, look at these steps. Worn down from a thousand years of people walking up and down, every day..."
"Have you seen the film 'Le Casse' by any chance?"
Καταπληκτικό βίντεο! Είδα όλα τα γνωστά μέρη, πως ήταν πριν. Λατρεμένος Belmondo❤

Merci monsieur Verneuil pour vos films au top
Great chase😂😂…. Couple of buckled wheels that straightened up😳….. couldn’t believe how many British cars were in it also….. loved it💪🏼
Back then cars were like tanks.
Nah, back then they were just square boxes.
@@mickcarson8504 beautiful square boxes
Except Mercedes and American cars specially American muscle cars
That Fiat has the crash protection of a towel rack...
Haha so true, just iron with wheels
La meilleure course poursuite du cinéma français
Круто! Бельмондо на "Жигулях", за ним "Волга 24-я" гонится....
OPEL der Zuverlässige :-) ... great movie !
cars were tough back in those days
The most hilarious car chase ever , gave us a good laugh when hiring this film on video in the early eighties .
Fantastico!! Che film e che inseguimento!
davvero incredibile cosa sono riusciti a fare in mezzo alla gente
This movie filmed in Greece and particularly in Athens . During the chase the producer had nearly 10 minutes to show the city of Athens were his was fond.
Rip Jean Paul Belmondo
No, it´s a FIAT 124 Special T and OPEL Rekord.
OPEL Rekord B, built one year: summer 1964 - 1965
No, это трешка жигули и волга 24ка.
1,4 or 1.6ccm?
@@vasya_prem Lada.
In Brazil the Opel Record used a Duke 2500cc 4 cilinders or the Duke 4100cc 6 cilinders. Called Opala.
I've heard that this is normal driving in Greece
Yes you can drive very fast in greece today.highway are expensive but nobody no police.no radar even in classic road .a bike passe me over 200 mph.
@@chris0579 LOL!!!
No,not anymore,they are all busy with the smartphones.
Probably is,complete with continuous car horns and people shouting all the time!
The great Réme and Jean Paul are upstairs now with Omar.RIP Gentlemen you have made a car chase that still stands the test of time.What a legacy!
Jean Paul was a great actor and stuntman , but he didnt do this chase..
@@Lefab3470 Reme Julienne did the stunts but yes...
Remi Julienne, Jean Paul Belmondo and Omar Schariff all R.I.P.
Si, Belmondo a fait une partie de la course-poursuite...la fin,avec les tonneaux qui dégringolent du camion,c'est un cascadeur.😉@@Lefab3470
Look: a car chase with absolute NO cgi crap destroying the fun of an honest twin-wreckage 😂
-or cockneys!
Cette ma primaire voiture il a 42 ans ce te de la voiture FIAT 124 especial T 8 C
To be fair, it uses a bit of rear-projection which looks just as ridiculous. Sometimes the fun is in the spirit, not the technique.

1. this is fiat 124 special T 95hp
2. fiat 126 is small polish car with 24hp
3.110 to 170 time is from 1965 opel rekord
No, Belmondo did not the stuntman in car chase. Care chase driver was Rémy Julienne.
@@lambertlambert7076Si,Belmondo à fait une partie de la course-poursuite, si pour le reste,c'est un cascadeur, c'est tout simplement parce que l'acteur n'avait pas encore rejoint le tournage du film.😉
Great memories to JP Belmondo! RIP😥
Fiats of the old school were bad for rust, but had engines that went like hell and were good to drive,
You can say that for every Italian car ever
Yep. My '97 Punto was amazing.
The best part of that chase was the oil landing on the streets below and the cars coming back and sliding on it.
That was hilarious, the people who was dancing and entertaining the audience, everything was going smoothly and suddenly, the audience heard a loud sound abd they all stand up and see what was happening and they were not focusing on the dancer anymore, everyone got their eyes on the two cars because they thought it was a race but it was in fact a real car chase 😂😂😂this scene is very classic, people thought it was a race but it wasn't a race, it was two car chasing each other
and the dancers just carry on like nothing else matters 😄
Интересно, я один смотрю эту погоню, и вижу "Волга гонится за Жигулём"?)
этo FIAT 124 и Opel Record
Ты не один,мы уже втроём.
Тоже такие же первые мысли сразу. Когда впервые это видео на ютубе увидел, лет 6 назад, без названия фильма, описания, без ничего - вообще подумал, что это советское кино))
Plot twist: Belmondo was just trying to test drive the car before buying it.
Un très beau film de cascades avec des acteurs de talent Belmondo et OMAR

Rear wheel drive ..... that’s all folks !!!
They drove the ever living shit out of those two cars. Great scenes.

Use engine sounds, tire squeals, no music in background, and real-world condition (use one car for the shooting)
with french actor : Jean Paul Belmondo in red car.
my be
Not a piece of plastic in sight, great.
Mister baen
Good piece of driving. By looks of it this must to been in the 70's the looks of the cars.
J'adore les courses poursuite de Bel Bel dans le Casse, c'était un bon film.
Einfach genial...
Wahnsinnig wieviele andere Verkehrsteilnehmer immer mit dabei sind - dass war ne Menge Aufwand dass zu drehen...
170 kmh - yeah, right :D
That was when cars were made of iron
After college I had an elderly Fiat 124 that very color, but it was never that sporty.
Pour l'époque c'était le top en matière de Car chase. Remy Julienne et JP Belmondo y sont pour beaucoup . . .
Great Chase.❤❤😊
It’s way more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car.
какие же живучие жигули!

The Best cars scene
@DonTriadenon Γεια σου πατριωτη! Amazing film, one of the createst car chases of all times.
9:00 lol. Just one piece of chrome? Try that in a modern Kia and by the time you hit the bottom of the stairs, you have 35% car left.
Yes but least the Kia owner hasn't shattered every bone in his spine
Anybody notice the Masarati Ghibli at 9:24? Very interesting mix of vehicles. Early japanese Mazda Familia wagon, Toyota Corona, english, german, french, italian cars and even some U.S. made delivery panel vans.
in 70ies, you had mostly british cars in Britain, french cars in France, german cars in Germany, italian cars in Italy and so on, but all kinds of cars in countries without domestic production
Gmc panel van with Gmc on the panel to advertise it .
For those who love, You must see « The professionnal » there is a good chase with Belmondo in it. Also a very good movie.
Oui mais moins spectaculaire en comparaison à celle du CASSE .
How cute.
It's like a mini Bullitt chase.
Best French car chase ever.
+bud ekins The best chase ever!
Filmed in Greece, one car is Italian, the other is German ;)
Fuck you, bloody gay...
back when drifting was actually cool..
Tres bonne film bravo
Wow that is by far the best car chase I have ever seen, that was amazing . How many cars were destroyed making this clip or were those cars really that tough???
That 124 though💪💪💪💪
когда писали звуковую дорожку положили с десяток жигулевских моторов 1.2
it's very nice :)
Oh my gosh, if I could drive like that I... Well, I would be in jail by now! Driving like that in cars with none of the electronic helps we've got today, it takes guts!
WAY better than the CGI Fast&Furious garbage.
I wonder how many of those little cars it took to film that? They are tough little cars, but there's no way it was only one of each.
I read today that they used only 4 second hand cars for the chase scene.
Ah so this os where Ondre Svadlena got the idea to add a chase to the game. Fantastic!
You can tell that Red car was Rwd, the way he was drifting around those parked cars in that parking lot. Would be a nice car to own in today's day's, also a classic.
Both are RWD, but the larger car has more understeer designed into the suspension setup.
Really good!
06:15 - 06:24 - Are they filming this for "Fast & Furious 13: Athens Drift"? :)
May I just say that is the funniest comment I've seen
Definitely heard some “Bullitt” sound effects in there. But what happened after this clip ended?
Mitchell Pak the rooten cop Sharif speak to Belmondo but don t find jewels in belmondo s car so he let him get away hoping to catch them later
@@Lefab3470 after all this. He lets him go.. wtf
Henri Verneuil wanted a chase car more longer and spectacular than Bullits one...so its a show in the show...Zacharia/Sharif let Azad/Belmondo go away because he knows he have hidden the jewels somewhere ...
The guy in the Opel got his 15 francs.
Wow. I've never seen this before and, I think, it's the first time I've ever seen a Lada used in a car chase.
Fiat 124 , the car the Lada was based on .
So THIS is where Gilles Villeneuve & Rene Arnoux got the idea from!
