I was living in Pearl Harbor when they were making the old one. One day I'm out at Ala Moana Park. That's where you see Gilligan's boat heading out the Ala Wai Canal on the 3-hour cruise. Across the canal is the hotel where the camera used to zoom in and there was McGarrett leaning over the balcony. Anyway, they were shooting a scene for Magnum. They were all there, Magnum, Selleck, TC, Rick, and even the helicopter. Higgins was either in character or he really is that way, leaning on his cane, and shorter than my mother. Rick's pretty short as well, I'm sure they had to be careful to hide it when he and Magnum were in the same shot. I spent a couple of hours there, it was a lot of fun watching. When it was on TV, that whole day's shooting made about 2-3 minutes on the show.
