Steve McQueen

Little known fact. The bad guy actually survived the crash. Only to get up to the same hi jinks in NY.
 
he did have a stuntman for the motorcycle jump. his close friend, bud ekins. ekins did some of the driving also in "BULLITT".
Of course you of all people would know this.

Is anybody here old enough to remember having seen Steve in his first starring movie role, in the old semi-horror movie "The Blob" in 1958, when it was first released?

Not when it was first released...But I saw it as a teenager in the late 70’s.

I'd heard he did it himself, but when I watched the clip earlier, I was a bit skeptical. He did a good job with the rest of the chase.

Thanks for the info.
