Uhhhh, no, he's not. Speed has absolutely killed people before. When scientists were just learning about/able to reach sound barrier breaking speeds, they wanted to know what it would do to a person, so they made a ___ mile, dead straight, rail track in a desert somewhere in the midwestern US, and made a metal chair that essentially had rocket boosters bolted onto the back of it. They then, _somehow_ , found a volunteer to sit in the chair as it was rocketed past the sound barrier in order to figure out what that kind of speed did to a person. I can't remember if he died on the first go, or if it was the second one, but it blew out his eardrums, his eyeballs, and there were some other injuries of course as well, but the gist of it is that one of those tests killed him. It wasn't from slowing down suddenly in his case either, it was literally from the effects of the chair just being completely exposed with no windscreen or anything to divert the wind, so his body was bearing the full aerodynamic effects of what the metal body/frame of most _jet fighters_ usually take. Pretty crazy how fucked up/stupid we used to be as a people to think that was going to end well in any way for the volunteer. I'm sure there are other examples, but I don't know of those off the top of my head. Once you remember how powerful the physics of air pressure is at high speeds, it becomes very easy to understand that there are clearly plenty of ways for outright speed itself to kill someone.
There's another one from two Danish comedians parodying the former friday afternoon "Traffic Radio" from the 80s: "The longer time you stay on the road, the bigger the risk of a crash, so it's safest to get from A to B as fast as possible as you stay much less time on the road".
Simple answer::... woke lefty and lefty--liberal censoring muppets. Had I my way, I'd bring back all the 70s and 80s sitcoms and comedy/dramas for two reasons, 1)most of them were brilliant. 2)to really, and I DO MEAN REALLY piss off the wokes!!!!!!!!!!!
8:06. The thing is, technically movement through air and water are both governed by fluid dynamics, they are essentially the same thing. Something that goes through water easily will go through air easily. Also, look for a video of penguins moving through water. They "fly" through water....
BAD NEWS! I once actually saw two Mercedes Bionic cars in my town. Some fish tank loving scoundrel who was my art teacher in my high school once owned a blue one but she somehow has had an accident in it. My engineering teacher purchased one as well but little did I know is that he sold it for a Citroen C4 after being made fun of it twice.
When Clarkson says ask your parents what we're on about , I do remember being about 8 and asking my parents what a vagina is ? It was late one weekend and it was mentioned on tv to which my dad laughed and said well you'd better ask your mother about that one still laughing as he said it to which point my mum said why should I tell him to which point they had a discussion about it and I never did get a straight answer now I know why , what would you say to a 8 year old I'd love to know lol
"do you take exercise?" Is exercise some sort of pill, I thought it was something you DO, not something you TAKE. "what`s your plan for the day?" Well first I`m going to do a shower, then I`m constructing a cup of tea after I take my exercise..
@@KingZedusPrime2009TyrentKaiju by not giving it a well known popular name. Doing so gives it large shoes to fill. Had it been called something else, it would have been looked at differently
25% isn't very many (who would prefer to be in a car than with Angelina Jolie). Also, have you seen her drive? There.... see... She might be brilliant, but she might not...
Top Gears replacement show (and its name currently escapes me.!) was a poor replacement of the original.! TOP GEAR (WAS) the best motoring show EVER.! (Until it went silly, chasing a broader audience and ended up losing its way.! Thanks to the BBC.!)
Yeah the Boxer and porsche are ugly looking things.. Even if i were a billionaire i'd never buy one.. Would not sit in one either a bit like a BMW also. If i had to go from one end of the country and all i had was a BMW, then i'd rather walk.. They are driven mostly by idiots and look like bricks. Oh and they're vastly over priced heaps of crap.
probably also because people in malaysa earn on average 13k GBP per year and in the UK is roughly 34k GBP. Your car prices are cheaper in malaysia because you're poor and selling them for 7k GBP nobody would be able to buy them.
“Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming Stationary, that’s what gets you”
Interesting thing is, Jeremy is right.

Why are you driving so fast. So the cops have less time to catch me.

Top Gear with these 3 will always have a special place in my heart.
Chuff-Heart
Does anyone else use these to fall asleep
Nah. That's what BBC Parliament is for 😂
Yep
Yess! Glad it's not just me
Great for insomnia
Yep settling down for another night ha 🎉
Jeremy struggling to decide if he's singing Dueling Banjos or Inspector Gadget to not repel his sister always amuses me.
Why don't we have tv like this anymore?
cause nothing is good now. everything used to be better. except for medicine and safety
Because everyone is offended by this kind of comedy and they’d get cancelled after the first season.

this was peak television
From the road map section, I can confirm going through Eccleshall away from the speed cameras is indeed faster 😂😂

Don’t worry… the Grand Tour is…. Was… a continuation.
It’s 2025 and I still feel the same

Someone should stream all episodes of Top Gear (2002-2015) and The Grand Tour for showing respect

Its strange seeing Hammond critiquing the 911
Well, he's yet to have his mid-life crisis at the time...

My 8 year old wouldn’t be watching this. Maybe at like 14.
It was 10pm just mentioned on some chat show and way past my bedtime
I want one of these phone receivers.. and I want ir NOW!
I respect the woman defending Hammond 14:09
You idiot
My first car was a Kia Rio and I loved it!!

Cameron Diaz with wheels on. 🤣
Bionic fish car lmao 😂
Looks like dad needs to go to the Cheesecake Factory for some cheesecake and scotch. (Step Brothers)
7:28 the worst car ever. Always breakdown and spare parts cost more than the value of the car 😂
Maybe that's what they meant by "my first Lotus"
Nissan Micra Cabrio coming out at Christmas. Ba-da boom - right under the radar.
Such a shame you were unable to link up the sound properly

One of the most tragic events in television history.! The loss of Top Gear was a moment in time.! RIP
(The BBC’s biggest loss in revenue ever)
Théby basically invented podcasts
Just like Dr Who will always be Tom Baker & Jon Pertwee, Top Gear is always only Clarkson, May & Hammond!
Yes!
I miss these days!
He made me go 60😳😂
It's now called Adblue.
₽304,000 for a pagani they are going for twice that now jeez!
Mercedes invented DEF fluid?!?
Technically pigs did
Hands free is dangerous
You can put him in your hand bag!!
you know what? The fish car, I'll have it. It's butt-ugly, but it's kinda cute.
2024 here. Angelina hasnt aged well. Take the car.
One video in 3 years ?
That Fish Mercedes-Benz uses what is D.E.F. that non-deleted diesel trucks have to use for emissions control.
Yes, it is basically cow urine
And that wee wee is called adblue now.
Good tv has gone for ever
😅😅
Hate to say it but the new(er) NSX might have done better in sales, if it wasnt called the NSX

9:02 is this the first car to have what we now know to be AdBlue?
Yes or three correct none is diesel exhaust fluid, peugeot did it I mi 2000s too (eolys fluid) adblue is actually abrand name
@@keithavian8129Eolys fluid is injected into the diesel fuel not the exhaust.
It’s pig wee. Specifically 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water.
Isn’t everyone about everything now? Humanity is so weak now.
its a fucking shame
The show
It tisnt
7k £ in UK, but in Malaisya? 1500 £ ! CAR PRICES ARE ARTIFICIEL. INDEXED ON 2 YEARS MIN WAGE !! WHY, FUKERS? 😮 POS

Prices are ALWAYS region dependent. Its nothing new mate!
