Sometimes fear of heights is like that. I have no problem being in a plane because it feels secure, but if I'm in something like a ski lift, it is not a fun experience.
@@matthewmuir8884 I'm the same. I've no problem looking out at the ground from a plane a few miles up, or looking over the edge from the top of a skyscraper. Glass floors with a few hundred feet drop below don't bother me. Give me what I feel is a secure place to stand and I'm fine. The platforms that window cleaners on skyscrapers work from, for example, look terrifying though.
@@aircommandslipperz it’s different, I studied aerospace engineering and perfectly comfortable with flying. But I am still afraid of height because I am not in an airplane all the time.
@@AaronShenghao That makes no sense. I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of falling, as most people supposedly afraid of heights are. As long as there is something to keep me from falling, I love being up high. Being in a flying vessel would mean if something goes wrong, there's nothing beneath me to keep me from falling if the vessel falls. So I would be far more afraid of heights in something that flies than in or on something that doesn't.
Here is the problem with watching Hammond, May, and Clarkson... they are so good at entertaining and talking automotive that it sets the bar incredibly high for any other broadcasters. That means... since no other show compares to these guys, we need more content more often!
This is why humans around the world love much these 3 life beings,I mean they're really good in everything they do. God I can't help missing Top Gear 😔🥺
Don't know, I used to be a pilot too, till they took my medical, and I have a fear of heights too, only of heights, not of altitudes, whatever the difference is!
Fear of heights can be like that. I myself have no problem being in a plane (I'm not a pilot, but still), but I do have a problem when in something like a ski lift.
I could see the generator fail coming but I am still grinning and laughing my butt off ! 😂 I would not be afraid of falling out of the dune buggy because the seat would be puckered halfway up my butthole. 🤣🇺🇲👍🏻
Hammond: why can't I go next? Clarkson (offscreen, probably): because I said so. Also Clarkson: there's nothing we can do. Its hopeless. May: we can have a beer. 🤣
That was absolutely terrifying!! I'm with Hammonds thinking, the well it's been tested so works but also they've potentially weakened the system 😮🤣 Mr Logic too drunk to think, brilliant 😮🤣
"I thought Hammond was going to say BUGGER!"😁I always wanted to ask how the kids feel after seeing their Dads doing these kind of silly and cool stuffs,having a chill beer at the other end after 2 decades?🙃
That was the real Jeremy Clarkson, first I know it was him, you can see his features, but also Andy Wilman the producer was asked about this very scene in an interview, and Andy confirmed it was 100% real, they did cross over themselves. However he did point out, there were teams of medics and technical support behind the cameras, and also the wires used were very strong, tested and actually tried out by production team members before the trio did their journey on them. The trio said they would only do the journey, if three members of the team did it before them, including Mr Wilman, who called it the most horrible ride of his life.
Well the Odds were against Richard, those dodgy 3rd world looking generators were bound to fail after an extended run so whom ever came last was going to have moments of discomfort and Hammond drew the short straw :-) Probably a dodgy low oil protection shutoff lol
Would you trust their cable car line? 🤔
Not really
Of course, she’ll be right
Seeing what happened to Hamster, NO.
Yes
i don't see why not. it looks 100% safe
James offering Clarkson a beer is pure wholesome!
That’s a true mate right there.
#FriendshipGoals
sir
And proceeds to drink Clarkson's beer
I like how James always has to go first (Namibia, Burma, Scotland, etc.)
Because Jeremy said so.
And because Hammond did hear him say it.
:-D
That's because he would fall the slowest out of the three.
@@Naeidea lol yes he would fall very slow and no risk to injury lol
Well... there's the guinea pig, the hamster and the tubby one with almost enough height to carry it off, quite simple really.
Probably a seniority thing. James was the last to join the trio
For someone with a genuine fear of heights, I have a lot of respect for James in doing this.
I would've had 2 fears
Height and water 😅
He's a licensed pilot.
Mine is having to leave a place mid flight
< Is also a Paratrooper

"look at the colors of those rocks" -- this show is fantastic. Love three of them
Just to the left of where Hammond is…

It’s not a fear of heights it’s a fear of falling.

Big respect to James because even though it's a rehearsed tv show he really does hate heights so to do this massive respect ☺️💪👍
Yea 🙌🏻
but he is a pilot too

The irony is that Clarkson has an honorary degree in engineering.

CarTrek or Car Throttle are pretty close, though.
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo 🤣
Hammond, we've looked at the situation, and there's nothing we can do.
"We could have another beer?" 🍺
" there's realy nothing we can do."
"we can have another beer..."
I hope you are filming a new season! this is my favorite show of all time, along with Clarksons Farm.
2:11 “My rectum has just opened like a set of theatre curtains”🤣🤣
I like how Jeremy was inadvertently plunging into a different version of the Monty Hall problem

@@waynepantry7023 the show name is literally in the title and it’s the name of this channel…
At exactly 2:51 Clarkson changes age, height and ethnicity - he is a seriously gifted actor!
Me and my family loved this two episodes. Me more than anyone else.
Why does May fear heights and have a pilots licence? 😂
Headfirst into water and headfirst into concrete floor isn't the same you know
Don't know, I used to be a pilot too, till they took my medical, and I have a fear of heights too, only of heights, not of altitudes, whatever the difference is!
he faced his fear and conquered it at some point, I guess
Because it's part of the Bloody script thats why.

These three Gens In the old age have gone completely mad and I love it
3:54 Jeremy signing hes had one to many lmao
"My rectom has just opened like a pair of theater curtains"☺️😁😆😂🤣😭😂😂
I can't imagine how good those beers tasted.
Every time James goes first his anger grows, his power increases.
James and his fear of heights! 😂😂😂
James and his healthy fear of dying !
😂👍🏻
We'll they got the flying cars they always wanted 😂
I like how his “33% chance now its a 50% chance” is a reference to the monty hall problem.
Massive respect to James May
James watching clarkson shit his pants whilst having a drink is such a mood 2:40
Kimi in a nutshell
Cartoon fantasy, come to life 😎
I love the trio like family
James drinking a TAFEL LAGER. .. one of the best
Every time clarkson screams HAMMOND, it’s way to funny
Man I miss the old top gear but we have The Grand Tour 🙂
James May: “Does this mean he isn’t coming?”
I could see the generator fail coming but I am still grinning and laughing my butt off ! 😂
I would not be afraid of falling out of the dune buggy because the seat would be puckered halfway up my butthole. 🤣🇺🇲👍🏻
Is James May anyone else’s favourite?
her: step bro I'm stuck.
step bro: let me help.
her: 2:11
Wow.. i can see you guys did this in my Neighboring Angola and drank Our homemade beer Tafel Lager! cheers from Namibia.... fun fun fun.....!!!!
Hammond: why can't I go next?
Clarkson (offscreen, probably): because I said so.
Also
Clarkson: there's nothing we can do. Its hopeless.
May: we can have a beer.
🤣
"it's a cable car, it's a cable car I have been in many cable cars cable cars are very safe " hehehehehe 🤣🤣😂😂
Oh man... i actually thought it was May screaming at 0:38
Lmfao... obviously it's not. 🤣
I love you guys 🤣🤣🤣
That was absolutely terrifying!! I'm with Hammonds thinking, the well it's been tested so works but also they've potentially weakened the system 😮🤣 Mr Logic too drunk to think, brilliant 😮🤣
I for one am going to miss these little "adventures" they have.
00:04:37 Clarkson Yells Hammond 😂😂😂
That’s why we like them
2:50 who's that in Clarkson's car lol
We have no beer...😅😆
James- I hate you!!!
Jeremy- He doesn't like us.
The Grand Tour from Ohio to New York to Florid in a 1999 Ford Taurus, 1999 Oldsmobile cutlass and a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am.

"My rectum has just opened like a set of theatre curtains." -Jeremy Clarkson
What a beautiful piece of poetry 😬
I have done the maths xD
"We've got no beer" 😅
Everyone has a scenic avatar of hero
Finally, flying cars
When jezzas buggie lands it looks like the driver has been switched out
How about they choose cars for each other on the next grand tour That could be fun
LOVED the last episode A LOT!
Best Trio Eva!
hammond: stuck
clarkson: There's nothing we can do!
may: We could have another beer...
So is this what they said about future cars that can fly i was hoping their wasn't no cables involved 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
How to be drunk 101
1. Have a fear.
2. Do what you have a fear of.

that is the most poetic way clarkson has ever refered to shitting himself.
Lol Jeremy's is so backheavy that the enormous V8 bounces off the platform
This is fabulous
Wow he bet his life
1:32 The Spaniel has landed.
Hammond did mention a fear of heights.
What do you think their showrunner had to say to the insurance company?
Everyone knows Hamster only gets hurt going very, very fast…
R.I.P. Richard!.
2:50 the dupe who rides the cable car is clearly visible. I think none of the 3 actually did this stunts, it was dupes

Tafel Lager is actually really nice beer
And on that bombshell...
Namibian beer for the W
Imagine being a local villager and seeing this and not knowing what a pulley system is lol.
This is weirdly one of the safest thing the guys did..
Wait.. when was this episode? Did I miss it or is this unaired bits?
I'd like to know too
3:55 Jezza, you're a bird-watcher and therefore have no right to make that face. :P
As Clarkson said it's hopeless, so the only thing to do is hurry on to Luanda before they lose the daylight.
Awesome 🤣
It will be helpful if they put the episode and season number in the description
It's the Namibia special
