English Language Trivia
Who wants to be a millionaire Simpsons Style

Pretty thorough Flash Gordon site
On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a professional Formula 1 racer drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris.
VIDEO In some stretches the driver reached nearly 140 mph. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets. Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago.
