De Gaulle assassination attempt Citroen DS

The first video is a dramatization from a movie.  The second includes real news footage of the aftermath.



H/t again to Tim, the DS master.

I thought a grenade blew a wheel off, and they escaped on three.

Anyway, looks like a good movie - I'll have to watch it.

On a semi-related note, did you ever watch the Carlos mini-series?

@Alan: What's Carlos?

It's epic, in the true form of the word.

One of my all-time favorite films. There was a lot of controversy that the guy who plated Carlos wasn't eligible for an Oscar on a technicality. It's on Netflix, if you check it out please let me know what you think.
