Fun Facts

• The first shot zooms toward the building where Ponch spotted the blue Mercedes and brown Chevy van from the helicopter in High Flyer.
• Dar Robinson was one of Hollywood's top stuntmen. He held many records, including highest salary for a single stunt. He died in 1986 in a motorcycle accident while making the movie Million Dollar Mystery.

Mistakes

• When Millard flees his apartment he gets about a 15 second headstart on Getraer, but, as the camera pans around, he's only about 100 yards ahead.
• During the Mustang chase, when Millard makes a hard right turn, there's a camera briefly visible on the left of shot.
