Good choice, the original crew were so much cooler than any other.

Hilts (McQueen) escapes to survey the surrounding area, then allows himself to be caught. His information is used to make maps of the surrounding area for the other prisoners to use. Who'd allow themselves to be recaptured for fear of being shot or tortured? In Le Mans Delaney (McQueen) sacrifices the glory of him winning himself so that his team mate wins and his team get a 1-2.

McQueen used to do many of the car & bike stunts himself and used to race them in a time where death was not uncommon.

Probably the most sensible post ever on bluemoon, as someone with no opinion either way on this topic i can confidently say anyone who disagree's with you is an animal abusing arse wipe with serious personal hygiene problems

Can't disagree with that, but there are also real life examples of similar bad-ass moves. Here's a guy who made sure he was captured in order to gain information about the prisoner camp for the resistance. Then he escaped and wrote the report.
Oh, and the camp was called Auschwitz.

That was a very interesting read, that guy had some balls.
