Back when this aired, a news site in Dubai mentioned this incident directly, and they really didn't know what "movie" needed this kind of "film scene". You guys sure love to surprise people who live in places you guys visit to.
Well that's what I'm wondering the whole time - those people in the mall looked to be having genuine reactions. Like straight up running away... How do they even set up a shoot like that? Planning to throw a tank through a wall in a mall... with unsuspecting pedestrians in it? Or am I just a dumbass and those people were extras? They earned there wage if they were, cause they seemed genuine af
We need to name all celebrity's and youtube users who have big nick names Hammond the crasher And linus drop tips literally lol Hammond can be named the power jessa Captain slow 🐌
And honestly, a Lambo wouldn't raise to many eyebrows in Dubai. Now a tank driving down the main street of town, or THROUGH a mall, might raise one or two. LOL!
I wondered how they get away with it I'm sure if you or I did that we would be in jail for crashing though a shopping mall. Would love to test that tank though.
@@adamwilliams4377 Shopping mall probably built a wall in a garage door were they unload trucks or something. But I’ve always wanted to drive through a roundabout like that lmao
That wall was just build for the episode with a few concrete blocks stacked without any binder and covered on either side with gypsum boards. Considering the cost of the above items here in dubai, that thing must have cost less than the neatly trimmed bushes he wrecked in that roundabout
Nothing more entertaining than watching hamster driving ludicrous vehicles. "If you are 9 years old, which I am" lol. Its incredible what Dubai will allow you to do if it serves as good publicity!
Because it’s Dubai. Good opportunity to show off their snazzy mall, and they probably wipe with more money than it cost to clean some floors and re-plant a few hedges. Besides, Amazon probably footed the lion’s share of the cost for the shoot anyway.
And the owner let *Hammond* drive that thing?? I love him dearest, but if I owned such a beast I wouldn't even let Hammond breathe near the thing in fear of a crash...
It's a good price but you know I am worried about maintenance. For example, at 15k miles - oil change: 200$ clean injectors: 400$, new rubbers 4000$ tracking - all wheels - 13000$.
@@Bruh-kh2csfor sure they needed the mall's permission to do all that. Those were not brick walls, and looked like made from gypsum boards as prop to be broken through
What modifications would you make to your custom Ripsaw?
Nukes
A V8 blender
Automatic canon mounted on top
I’d set the driver’s position for me and disable the ability to make any future adjustments.
It will then be secure from my wife and Hammond.
Add the drill cone from the Mole. (Thunderbirds)
Hammond’s yearn to be American shines brightest when he embraces it.
Ya think the tit would move already lol

@@SquareNoggin they're actors. This probably cost a lot to film
Well, yeah. I don't think they'd get away with killing people.
That's a fake wall built for the crash through, as is visible from the lack of debris and the perfectly shaped cinder blocks rolling away.
This vehicle is PERFECT for Hammond,
It's definitely got anti crash feature in it.
This is hammond we’re talking about. He’ll find a way.
The ripsaw doesn't crash, everything around it does.
We need to name all celebrity's and youtube users who have big nick names
Hammond the crasher
And linus drop tips literally lol
Hammond can be named the power jessa
Captain slow 🐌
Hammond will crash any vehicle
I love how the side windows are higher than Richard’s eye level.
Ah, now that's where Hammond got the idea from to build his Ford Focus RS on the Grand Tour Madagascar special.
If only he did it better maybe it wouldn’t have failed so badly
Tbh 300k for that isn't bad. Considering how much a lambo would cost. Spend a bit more and you won't be worried about crashing it
And honestly, a Lambo wouldn't raise to many eyebrows in Dubai. Now a tank driving down the main street of town, or THROUGH a mall, might raise one or two. LOL!
Also no more shrieking at the sight of potholes
Honestly you can get one cheaper, you just lay off on all the luxury options like the leather seats and stuff.
Sounds like a deal to me
Thats even better than the marauder in traffic
Yaa it is
And is smaller too. And you don’t have to do some serious paperwork to drive that vehicle.
I remember watching this thing pull humvees out of marshes like 15 years ago, cool to see how far it's come.
Would have liked to seen footage of him getting in it, must have been hilarious!
Ye because the door is high
That's what Hammond should have been driving for the Amazon treasure hunt episode rather than the makeshift triangular treads he used.
The Ripsaw or the MFB: which is your favourite?
@@thegrandtour RIPSAW
@@thegrandtour nothing in the history and future of mankind will ever come close to MFB
Of course Hammond has a winch on his luxury tank! 😂😂
I wouldn't be surprised if baby Hammond had a winch on his pram.
And roll-cage.
@@Progection Incase he fell off a swiss mountain side
@@sausageroll2695 I like your profile picture.
"Hey, what's our budget for this film?"
The producers: "yes"
Driving through the roundabout then smashing through the mall hilarious how do you get away with this and how do I double thumbs up video video 😂
I wondered how they get away with it I'm sure if you or I did that we would be in jail for crashing though a shopping mall.

Thats upset the Eco Karens ........... Probably more than my old Petrol Range Rover classic :-D
I find it more amazing they let him drive anything at all given his past let alone a tank
01:13 They've really used Comic Sans as a font for the switches 😂
LOL I love the part where he side swiped the BMW! That 2 seconds was the whole show!
Did you See they Hid the numberplate ?
It‘s a European car That they Used just for the show 😭
Still hilarious though
And how many of us would just luuurrrve to do that to a Beemer?
probably being driven by a crew of the gt
Nothing more entertaining than watching hamster driving ludicrous vehicles. "If you are 9 years old, which I am" lol. Its incredible what Dubai will allow you to do if it serves as good publicity!
Corporate owned hell hole, good publicity is their only factor to surviving.
Those fellas at Howe&Howe sure do know how to build some awesome toys.
But it has never improved which means it is not their idea.
Richard has once said "i feel like driving a luxurious hotel into a damp"
Sorry. What?
God this gives me flashbacks to the marauder and I love it..
There was one of these at the place where I got my oil changed a couple days ago, it's freakin AWESOME to see in person
I want one for when I go on the M25, don’t think a bit of super glue is going to stop that.
Top Gear: Chris Harris drive a McLaren 720S and many luxury car.
Grand Tour: But did he drive a tank? No.
This footage is outstanding
Yes..just the vehicle for popping to the shops in..well it is a bit rough these days around our way..
This must be so fun to drive off-road
Jeremy Clarkson did Richard Hammond drove that tank into a shopping mall in Dubai mad bugger but it's awesome to see anything like that there
It's hard to make a choice, but THIS has to be my favorite episode!....
One of few vehicles that Hammond can't crash
Reminds me of the marauder
Imagine driving your car and you looked in your review mirror and see a friggin tank behind you
Driven by Richard Hammond no less 😅
damn! that was so easy to turn that tank around lol
Bentley Ultratank has to be mentioned)))))
Pure awesomeness
How the HELL did they convince Dubai to let them drive a TANK in one of the largest and most expensive shopping malls in the world 😂😂😂😂😂
That's what I'm wondering too!
Because it's not a tank, just a tracked vehicle
Because it’s Dubai. Good opportunity to show off their snazzy mall, and they probably wipe with more money than it cost to clean some floors and re-plant a few hedges. Besides, Amazon probably footed the lion’s share of the cost for the shoot anyway.
Oh wow, that merging right into that bimmer. Shoe's on the other foot for once!
This clip is taken from Season 2 Episode 5 "Up, Down And Round The Farm" for those interested.
Cheers,
Watching the back catalogue now
you could buy 2 WWII M4 Sherman's for the same price as that Ripsaw.
Neither gonna protect you from much. Buy a Jetpack, fly away
But is that fast? Or street legal?
@@quillmaurer6563 you can make it street legal
@@jd_the_cat not fast
@@LegoWormNoah101 Still street legal.
When you add couple extra zeros in your filming budget
"Ooh, roundabout"
and indoor driving.
At 2:18 I was like WTF….where’s the cookie shop?
You're nuts, chaps!! 😂😂
And the owner let *Hammond* drive that thing?? I love him dearest, but if I owned such a beast I wouldn't even let Hammond breathe near the thing in fear of a crash...
If Hammond crashed this one the tank would be fine.
It’s like a really nice caterpillar bulldozer without a bucket. Caterpillar should make these!!
But Caterpillar only make boring construction equipment and farming equipment
Who needs a Lambo when you can have a Ripsaw. No scratches issue
What would it take to scratch up a Ripsaw? 🤔
@@thegrandtour pak 40
What a cool vehicle. I want one.
perfect for mall shopping in Lighthoof's Chicago
bruh the font on those switches at 1:14 is dangerously close to comic sans
...that IS Comic Sans! At least on the winch switches.
Here because Conan O'Brien Needs a Fan interviewed one of the engineers on this thing. So cool!
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
Y'all should list the series & episode info . . . you know, for those that haven't memorized every minute of the entire show.
I need this indeed . There's too many of these fucking roundabouts in my country 🤣
They plant ours with tall bushes in the centre. In my MX5 I can’t see a bloody thing. Twerps.
this reminds me full well of his marauder review
Is this covered by the RAC?
This is a kick-ass zombie apocalypse vehicle!!!
Midtown Madness
the suspension of disbelief has jumped the shark ladies and gentlemen's sausages
This guy😂😂a bargain
Pay all that money and you get switches with Comic Sans font. Now that's luxury.
The new Oldsmobiles are in early this year!
Great video. ☺
Jake and Elwood would be most impressed.
eh i don't think they'd like hammond
This must be the new Batmobile!
I think that lowering the height of the tank & parking would be the better idea than scaring people away.
Can't really lower the height on a tank with a track system like that. It's possibly as low as Howe & Howe can make it
What episode is this from? How dont i remember this..
season 2 episode 5 i think
beginning of episode 5 season 2 , i checked it
You can find this moment in Season 2 Episode 5

One of these was used to make tank-car in Mad Max last film
This needs to conquer the darien gap

It looks cool, it looks fun, but a tank it ain't, you wouldn't catch me going to war in that thing lol
Little men, big toys
Perfect for shopping at Waitrose.
Probably built solely for Waitrose. A good investment if you are a Waitrose regular
richard Each time he gets in to a safe tank crashing into everything he sees💀
When he first went around the corner that Lady in white shirt was like what the fuck is going on
When is this episode is airing??
The best thing about the Ripsaw is that it is pointless.just good silly fun.
There probably are some practical applications for it. But why would you bother with all that when you can just tear around the desert lol
did it have a 6.6 duramax
Hammond, that will be $10,000 for new landscaping.
2:04 tankfully
Amazing😀😀😀👍
My dream 😍❤️🔥👍
도로주행 가능한가? 특별허가인가?건물 부수고 차박고 완전 미쳤다

That joy ride in the mall must have cost loooooots of money......
BEST WAY FOR A GOOD FINAL HEIST
As a person working in maintenance department for a chain hypermarkets and malls in dubai, this video gave me PTSD.
Every pedestrian looks at you like you are in your way to overthrown the government.
Hammond : breaks a wall in the mall.
The whole mall: HAMMOND!!! YOU IDIOT
That's amazing.
It takes more than having tracks to be a tank.
Bad ass.
Clarkson would approve.
he said he wants one
big question: how did they let them film this in a mall
Amazon and its big budget?
@Not again yea but they broke walls
