Yes this make much more sense, I watched it all back in november, waiting for the jokes to come. And 16min later I was like "Why the hell James May did something as useless as an unboxing?"
Just saw the new Grand Tour episode and when this video showed up, I freaked. I saw this vid when it first released and it was cool to see that this vid beat Jeremy's YT vid. Nice.
No, actually. Back when the trio was still in Top Gear, Clarkson and Hammond pranked him by having a truck ram into the side of the Dacia Sandero that Clarkson bought for him. He ran when the truck rammed into the side of the Sandero.
And to think. When i first saw this video, i literally thought this was how the car was shipped to customers across the world by Toyota. Now after watching The Grand Tour SE3E10,. I see now it was all made up for a challenge...lol. Good Win James. U literally had me telling friends here in Jamaica that that's how the car was shipped until recently lol
"Remember you only unbox something once. Something that has once been unboxed can never been boxed again, because it has already been unboxed." - James May
"Elsewhere in the world, awards are rewarded to reward excellence but here on the Top Gear Awards, we'd like to award an award that rewards a car that we found particularly, unrewarding." - also James May
Me too and I wonder when they filmed it. In episode JM claims there were only 330k views, while currently there are 616k views. Unboxing video was awesome, just like GT Christmas Special.
Jeremy's version would begin with him cutting a massive hole in the box with a chainsaw and simply drive the car at full power through the rest of the box
If Jeremy Clarkson were to do the unboxing, the whole video would be over in 3 min - open 1 side of the box, start the car, POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just watched the episode. I have to admit, I follow this channel and was awful excited when this first came out. Glad to know I was one of the 330k millennials that decided to watch it. Then again, not a typical one given I get great joy out of watching you reconstructing odd bits and Bob's. Out of all 3, you really are my favourite 😂
As you can see, this fellow, the most out of touch of the whole Grand Tour trio, has in fact done it right, once again. I don't know if this was on purpose, but he really did hit on the most bafflingly popular type of TH-cam video that can be done on a budget. Not surprised at all that he won that contest.
I remember all those comments from when this video first came out that said it wasn't a "real unboxing" because the box had obviously been built around the car and its tyres were dusty. Makes perfect sense now!
Even this one didn't come in a box, you can see where they drove the car into the bottom price if cardboard and the footsteps on it too with the same dust as Mays footsteps from the warehouse. Fake box! Fake news
I am pleased to have been one of the 330,000 that helped you win the challenge. Shhh... we won't tell anyone that I'm a somewhat fat middle aged man, not a millennial.
Depending on how middle you are, you could be almost a millennial! They run from ‘81 to ‘96, meaning the youngest millennial is now over 20, and the oldest are nudging up on 40!
How did you get Toyota to send you a car in a box. I'm thinking they're going to start selling them in boxes to put under giant Christmas trees!!. 1.1 tons, that's really light !
xDDD that's the future of car buying... Buy it online, it's delivered to your porch next step- Build your own car DIY. You receive the car in parts and have to assemble it :D an even MORE compact shipping container, heck yes
There was these two brothers who tried to one up each other on giving the most useless birthday gift to each other. One of them finally win by shipping a Cadillac, disassembled and encased in a concrete block.
James,hello.Меня зовут Игорь.Я из России.Мне очень нравится ваша передача Гранд Тур. Спасибо вам,что продолжаете радовать нас своей передачей,и своими шутками. Продолжайте в том же духе.
Having seen the Grand Tour, this video finally makes more sense
Tyler Dillon i know right when it first came out i was quite confused haha
Yes this make much more sense, I watched it all back in november, waiting for the jokes to come. And 16min later I was like "Why the hell James May did something as useless as an unboxing?"
This, along with David Souffle
Now I want uncle lou from /unboxingtherapy to make a reaction from this unboxing
Indeed
Who else came here after watching the grand tour episode to see if they actually posted it?

Yep

he finally got it

Ouch
Just saw the new Grand Tour episode and when this video showed up, I freaked. I saw this vid when it first released and it was cool to see that this vid beat Jeremy's YT vid. Nice.
Oh my gosh Same
RAM same here, saw this vid before the episode 😂
Yeah same, I've paused The Grand Tour to quickly come back and check the views.
I saw this a lot ago,now im watching the grandtour epizode...lol
Good but it shouldnt have beaten Hammonds video
I've been watching James May unbox a Yaris for 16 minutes. This is proof the man can make anything become exciting.
Bro I didn't realise the video was 16mins long until you mentioned it. Time flies when capt. Slow is around
I was like, Oh, it's 17 minutes? Well I'll be skipping some parts then, but ended up watching the whole thing :D
jokes aside these cars are insane
I would do anything to see jeremy react to this comment
I think that says much more about you than James May actually
1:22 the fastest we’ve ever seen James May go.
O my god will done I was going to say that
after scandiflick not anymore
Bro is a pilot. Never forget that.
No, actually. Back when the trio was still in Top Gear, Clarkson and Hammond pranked him by having a truck ram into the side of the Dacia Sandero that Clarkson bought for him. He ran when the truck rammed into the side of the Sandero.
You could build a fortress with that box or give it to Hammond. it would be perfect for a house!
That box is big enough to be a mansion for Hammond.
🤣😂
The box is the size of my home!
an improved version of hammond's motorhome, maybe?
Hammond size

So did I! I feel like I was a part of the Grand Tour now.
@@RahulKapoor9992 yeah same
Same here... I was shocked when this showed up in the grand tour.
And to think. When i first saw this video, i literally thought this was how the car was shipped to customers across the world by Toyota. Now after watching The Grand Tour SE3E10,. I see now it was all made up for a challenge...lol. Good Win James. U literally had me telling friends here in Jamaica that that's how the car was shipped until recently lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean... It would be cool if cars were shipped like that, wouldn't in?
Superbikes are shipped in a box indeed.
Yeah, and it comes pre-registered from the factory
Disappointed it wasn't the Dacia Sandero.
They sell them in the UK now, I was so disappointed May wasn't in the advert considering the promo hes been giving them for years.
That would have been good news
MrWhatsup321... lol, never thought about that until your comment, have another like
😂😂😂😂
did you copy the other guys comment or did he copy yours? anyway I dont get it?
It should have been unassembled.
Only James would enjoy putting it together.
The Reassembler
Oh geez, I hope not. This video would have been 4 days (instead of minutes) long, as he would be putting it together.
Also I'd kill for new Reassembler episodes

Beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes
What is box
One day people will be asking “who is this Confucius? Is he like an old version of James May or something”
All news cars should come bubble wrapped & boxed delivered. I think J.May onto something here.
Razor's Edge Yes, why isn’t unboxing a new car a thing?
@@Addrit85 I mean the lambo aventador svj you got to unwrap it since it came completly covered in plastic to protect the paint
How do we know you weren't shrunk down and unboxed a toy car?
The Iron Armenian aka G.I. Haigs because why shrink James down to unbox a toy car when they could just use Hammond?
Surprise seening you here!
Honey I shrunk the big kid.
Oh look a fellow war thunder player watching this
Was not expecting to find Iron Armenian here. Can you land this Yaris on a carrier?
"JM's unemployment tube" LOL subscribed!!
This is the youtube page he started when him and the guys were unemployed between Topgear and The Grand Tour. Richard also has a channel.

Yeah, manufacturer breakin. Some manufacturers will now break in your car properly for you before you receive it.
@@RobynnxX Lol, not for 5000 miles they won't. This is a press/journalist tester vehicle that makes the rounds between different publishers/videos.
Jeremy's version would begin with him cutting a massive hole in the box with a chainsaw and simply drive the car at full power through the rest of the box
He'd make the hole with a hammer.
*electric hammer
don't forget bumping into jezzer's car at the end
Peqqy yeaaah😂😂😂
you know it's British when the measurements are mixed with Imperial and Metric
“Remember; you only unbox something once. Something that has once been unboxed, can never be boxed again, because it’s already been unboxed.”
A wise man indeed.
I don't think cars come in boxes, so this'll be the first unboxing
Also, it was registered in January...
I think this caution should be included in the instruction manual of every car selling in a box.
Hey man here's a tip: Comas, fullstops and whatnot are very important.
Glorious!
Phrophet Jesus Christ almight
My life is complete.
Now, I got Lord and horse powers
What are you doing here??
Jesus! Are you into cars?
JC is a guy the more you know
I could watch James unbox things all day long.
In Clarkson voice..."Tonight...James May does a money shot"
If Jeremy Clarkson were to do the unboxing, the whole video would be over in 3 min - open 1 side of the box, start the car, POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I kinda want to see that now... lol
Yeah he would just drive through the side of the box without opening it whilst throwing the manual at a passing idiot
I'd, love to see that.
He would just use explosions
He'd open it with a hammer, of course.
Just watched the episode. I have to admit, I follow this channel and was awful excited when this first came out. Glad to know I was one of the 330k millennials that decided to watch it.

Who’s here after the Grand Tour episode. Congrats James May.
Me
👍
When the episode aired they mentioned only 330k views, now it's already 1 Million! James rules!! Haha
Me
You shouldn't have taken it out the box. It's worth less now.
Imagine in 40 years one of these sells for $40,000,000 at the Barret Jackson new in box, and another without the box gets sold for chump change xD
Says every retro gamer (mums why do you need the box!)
Yeah but it might suffer from long term damage though due to humidity.
Watch out Unbox Therapy, May is coming for your viewers!!
So true though
Only James May could make an unboxing last nearly 17 minutes
thats why he is called captain slow
That's bloody good efficiency given the specs!
I remember seeing Clarkson’s Soufflé sketches before the episode aired, and this showed up but I never watched it until now for some reason.
Oh hi toby
I remember watching those and thinking it was just some nose thumbing at France for British reasons I couldn't understand thanks to Mr. Washington
As you can see, this fellow, the most out of touch of the whole Grand Tour trio, has in fact done it right, once again. I don't know if this was on purpose, but he really did hit on the most bafflingly popular type of TH-cam video that can be done on a budget. Not surprised at all that he won that contest.
@Ian Hughes It was either this or one of those disgusting Mukbang videos with people chewing with their mouths open.
Only James May could make something this dull this interesting
Having actually unwrapped a few cars in my day, I can assure you it's quite the opposite.
Nick Shillito he's made it a little less dull. Could've done better with the editing though
Dullest unboxing ever. But funny in how dull it is.
Conspirazy couldn't have said it better lol, the car is cool though
Watch the Grand tour series 3. Episode 10 and you will understand
0:09 when I forget what month it is after being in quarantine for so long
Oof
I want James May's unboxing ASMR thank you.
watch the reassembler show, it's here on youtube
Who did Clarkson go and punch now?
Technically Clarkson is a producer
@@paulmaartin So he punched himself?
LOL ... Now an entire generation will think cars come in boxes. Great work James May!
I just watched grand tour and s3 ep10 and seen you had won the competition congrats.
Damn it, you! I'm watching that episode now and you have just spoiled it for me!

I didn't know you could get a Yaris in a box.
Jk, I'm here from The Grand Tour.
Our greatest exports are depression and James May.
James is a pretty great export imo
You typed depression twice
You need to give the box to Hammond and tell him you bought him a new house, bet he'd be happy about it
James May called Yaris a real call, I feel like everyone calling my Yaris a 'tampon on wheels' was wrong and I'm really happy. Thank you James
James May is still winning, he’s at 626k and counting lmao.
the difference a day makes...
And Hammond hasn't even hit 50k views yet.

Why dont all car come in boxes
They havent a big enough fork lift lol
Because it would make garbagemen go on strike...
I was expecting some seriously sarcastic answers, but these are all quite valid points.
