Classic cars lasted longer and are more rigid and far less disposable than today's cars. And the ppl were far more sensible, caring common sense than today's society. I've noticed this growing up in the 70 & 80s. Today's generation is so traumatized by what gender they are. You can't even walk outside the comfort of your own home without offending anyone.

@themidnighttavern6784 3 ай бұрын

@@terryschnereger8531 Everything you just said was incorrect. The average lifespan of a new car in the 60s was less than 7 years on average. Meaning on average, you'd buy a brand new car, and it would be in a junkyard less than 7 years later. That's a statistical averaging tracking the average age of cars on the road. By comparison, 7 years is nothing for a modern car. As for the comment on society being more compassionate, tell those people you're gay, or that you had depression, and watch them turn on you fast.

@@terryschnereger8531 Modern generations just want to have the freedom to live their lives. Being gay isn't a choice, basically every gay person will tell you that. Their attraction to same sex people is as natural as the attraction you and I have to the opposite sex. You can't force a gay person to become straight anymore than you can force a straight person to become gay. Yet despite this, you had truly evil people deny them the right to be married, and be happy for no reason.

Awesome recreation! But, as someone else mentioned, this missed the absolute #1 cue which signified the beginning of the Chase, which was the buckling of the 1960's lap belt in the Charger. Might have added a bit of humor to buckle the three-point harness instead, or splice in an actual lap belt buckle🤷. Also, i was waiting for the Mustang reversing uncontrolled wheel hop at 6:39 and was dissapointed that that piece was shortened with no wheel hop. I grew up in that era, and those Mustangs without Traction Bars were notorious for wheel hop under uncontrolled acceleration. The smoky burnout by the escaping Charger exceeded the excitement of the original. And my hair stood on end with the absolutely perfect timing of the Mustang showing up in the Charger's rear view mirror.

My dad was a Stillman on set and watched the whole chase ... But my dad was actually a block over filming "Eye of the Cat" with Michael Sarrazin who was a good friend of my dad... Steve actually wanted my dad to do the still work on Bullitt but was already scheduled to do the one he was on... In fact everyone took a break from filming Eye of the Cat to go over and watch... When my dad got there Steve asked if he could just shoot it anyways... But that was against union rules...lolol And my dad also was part of the Cameraman's Local Union heads... So it wasn't going to fly...lolol Steve also wanted my dad to do "LeMans" but again Steve was too late again asking my dad because he was already scheduled for another picture...
