Movie productions go to amazing lengths, for example all the Minis used
underground in the remake of the Italian Job were actually electric, to
comply with the authorities' requirements.


If you visit Disney Studios in Marne-le-Vallee, near Paris, one of the
shows they do is all about stunts.

To do stunts involving long sequences of cars driving backwards, they
have a separate car built back-to-front, with the real driver low down
looking out of the boot and the apparent driver just holding a dummy
steering wheel.
