Tonight we were thrilled to find that someone has paired the YouTube video of the chase scene alongside a Google Map.  Now we know for sure where the famous hills are. 

The clip gets good at 4:00 min where the chase flies down the HUGE hill(s) on Taylor which is parallel to us here on Jones street.
