Some person took footage of car chases from Hawaii Five-O and edited them into one, long nonsensical thing. But it's got Steve, Danno, Chin Ho and McQueen-wannabe Mustang. Man, the nights are dark and empty when they're not on TV.

If only the folk(s) who put this together had the LP of original Five-O music from the show--there are several good pieces on it that would've fit perfectly. (That album was released on vinyl in '69 & was available as late as '76, when I bought it at a Philly-area Sam Goody's...AFAIK, it's never been released on CD or legally made available for downloading.)
BTW: The guy with the gripper claws who was driving the manual-shift '68 Mustang was real-life private investigator Jay J. Armes (who guest-starred as a bad guy in one episode).
Also BTW: There are two shots of McGarrett's '67 Marquis fastback in this...that car was replaced by the '68 Park Lane after the pilot (CBS must've wanted a 4-door).
Also also BTW: Other than for continuity's sake, WTF did McGarrett wear that same dark-blue suit in a tropical climate like Honolulu?
I can only make a comment on that final BTW, Scott: Because Jack Lord was a badass.
You can tell the guy driving the mustang is the bad guy because his hand (left? right? It switches around 2:08) is a claw.
McGarrett drifting across the lawn at 4:55 made watching the video all worth it ;)
Those couldn't have been real car chases, none of the hubcaps flew off
imoody - its both hands (as clearly visible in a couple shots) double claw bad guy.
His car still switches from left to right hand drive at 2:08. Unless he has a mirror in the dash of his car.
I suppose that's more proof that he's the bad guy. Only sinister people wear prosthetics.
I noticed one scene where the guy who compiled the video flipped it - the channel 27 logo was backwards and on the left. That must be where it looked like a right hand drive.
One hub cap was lost by the gold Lincum, so it's a real car chase. :)
Oh, and that ending firey crash that shows an open-wheeled grand prix car or something like that - I remember that scene from an episode that featured Ricardo Montalban bringing some car to Hawaii for a hill climb. The car was a coupe of some sort, until the crash. :)
