i really want one of these classic minis a true car!! although i would have to drive it through my local shopping centre at some point, would be totally worth it
Is that how the movie really ends? LOL, that really sucks! I saw that coming too. I was thinking, shit, if I was on a getaway through windy, dangerous mountain roads, I WOULDN'T be driving a damn bus like it was a Mini! They should have at least each grabbed a few packs of gold, or formed a relay before they all moved to the front of the bus...each stack they moved would help balance it.
@justforever96 It is science's greatest questions: how the hell do you get off the bus without killing everyone and how do you get the gold off the bus?
@TheMikeyReilly Well, scientifically speaking, I'd have everyone except one guy get as FAR to the end of the bus as possible. Then he can slowly sneak down, and start bringing back bricks, one at a time. Every brick he brings back helps the center of balance move back, until he can carry two at a time. That's like 1,000lbs or more of gold there. I'd like to think of that as the end. Or they could just all jump off at once, let the bus go, and then climb down and recover them that way!
The Fiat Car Factory in Turin has a race track on its roof. This was used in the chase when they go three abreast at 3:42. You can also see the track on google earth.
@MrSteveCushman : The test track is still there and can be used from time to time. The factory is now a huge complex for exhibitions, shopping, movie theatres etc.
@therealdjcammONUTUBE i've been looking for it for ages. Theyve put music over this and it doesn't fit. I'll message you if i find it or can you do the same to me if you find it?
3 little british minis and the worlds best stunt driver remi julien still to this day the best car chase in a movie ever the sewer bit was filmed in a new sewer near coventry remi did try and get the mini all the way over 3 times but lack of grip stoped this from what i here he did do it on a bike tho at the end of this chase the guy standing at the top of the ramp waveing the cars in to the bus was peter collinson the director of the film !
@richardmaudsley77 : some of the debris where left there for ages, despite the produced telling they did their best to clean the area. I grew up in the area, saw some of the scenes being filmed, and went with my dad trying to collect some of the Mini leftover. However, these weren't real Minis, but just mockups. I may have still some piece of it around my dad's place.
@alexander1485 : when it was built in the 1920's the Lingotto factory was world most advanced. The test track is still there and can be used, but the factory is now a huge multiplex (with shopping arcades, theatres, exhibition halls etc)
They got it off or they died, simple. The bus was balancing with the men acting as counter balances to the gold. No way they could have all got out the door before it fell.
Some scientists held a competition to find out some ways of how it could be done. Like one man gets out, gathers rocks to place under the bus (The bus has a very small platform below it) or get as much weight as possible on the back and pass the gold back one by one. Maybe by throwing. Google it.

As mad as it sounds, it happened. (Altho the bus was empty at the time) He said it in an interview for the anniversary VHS. It was a knee jerk reaction because if the bus had fallen they wudnt have been able to afford another one.
