I like the fact that he's not as silly or as comical in real life as he is in his roles. He's a very well spoken, intelligent man who has an immense talent for making people laugh.
He's the kind of chairman I'd laugh my ass off in the presentation if he asks me something on my work but be aware of the fact that it was my last day in the company
I can see a Mr Bean skit where he's driving around trying to find his hotel. Accidentally ends up on a race track and starts overtaking professional drivers left and right while obliviously looking around for anything that resembles a hotel. Half way through his car seems to be making a clunking sound. So he drives into a pit stop thinking it's a mechanic. The crew impressed with him, changes his wheels and fills up his car. Mr Bean impressed with the speedy service gives one of the crew a tip before driving off.
Rowan had a stuttering problem which contibuted to him limiting his talking in his early career but later recognized that by letting his visual expressions and actions talk for him he was able to reach a much wider audience with his comedic genius. Other than the “Mr Bean” character he played other roles where he was extremely verbal and articulate
Yes, he has a stammer, and it caused him to be rejected from earlier roles, so he came up with character Mr Bean. He loved visual comedy, and wanted to come up with a character who didn't use words. He was a master of making faces, and used that as well. Richard Curtis helped him, and wrote ALOT of the sketches along with Rowan and Robin Driscoll. Rowan is known as Mr Bean here in the US, and mainly Blackadder and Not The Nine o Clock News in the UK. Either way, he's a legend and one of the most beloved comedians of all time. Plus, he's an amateur race car driver, so he's a really good driver.
The fact that he really does have some pretty serious driving experience and was still able to act silly while driving that course should tell people that he is one of the greatest comedians ever.
@@rrebel9939 That is like saying you are Roman because your ancestors were so, but do you speak Latin, bake Roman bread and celebrate the old Gods? No. You do not so how can you be Roman?
I feel contrary. I think Rowan Atkinson is the engineer of humour when it comes to humans and after experimenting enough he has figured it out. His manners appear more like totally calculated instead of natural and by instinct.
Okay but that was such a clean lap: he was so smooth on the entry and he hit all the apexes very precisely and used up all the track that was given to him on exit, and is right on the limit of the tires everywhere as you can hear the tires chirp. What a proper driver!
Indeed. Possibly in tandem with his humility, it's an expression that says, "Okay, I'm the fastest person on Top Gear, that's nice. Not going to gloat or hold it over anyone, though."

Well, that's if you haven't ever seen any of his movies. I highly recommend Johnny English and Johnny English Reborn, amazingly hilarious movies. Also, many people don't know this but Rowan Atkinson is highly educated, before his career in media and entertainment he went to university and he holds a PhD degree in Electrical engineering from Oxford university with an IQ of over 120. A brilliant mind and a brilliant talent.
Actually almost everybody with a degree has an IQ of at least 120. I have 125+ and I am an absolute buffoon! I bet Rowan has an IQ of at least 135, if not higher...
Well he has an IQ of 178 and holds a masters degree in Electrical Engineering. He just chose to take the comedic route and became one of the most beloved comedians of all time.
Know what's like the most amazing thing about this video? Something which I was sure, at first, was fake, but then later decided it was real. At 3:55, the tall guy in the white shirt is like smiling and stuff, then when Clarkson says "You're in the wrong career", look at what happens to his face! Amazing ..
"In March 2001, while Atkinson was on a holiday trip to Kenya, the pilot of his private plane fainted. Atkinson managed to maintain the plane in the air until the pilot recovered, and was able to land the plane at Nairobi's Wilson Airport." -"Atkinson 'averted air disaster'". bbc.co.uk. 24 March 2001. Retrieved 5 July 2015. ENOUGH SAID
I am absolutely in awe and might I say besotted with the man. Rare combination of class, brains, charm,looks, humility and a certain “je ne sais quoi”.
He is a very intelligent man. Rowan Atkinson, born in 1955 in the UK, completed his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Newcastle University. In 1975 Atkinson went on to continue his studies to obtain a Master’s of Science in electrical engineering from The Queen’s College, Oxford. Although Atkinson did not complete his master’s studies, preferring to take his present career as a comedian, it shows that he knew what he was doing, as, if he followed engineering, he would not have been known, nor respected, nor paid, as he is a comedian. He was so intelligent in measuring the pulse of our society and catered for what people wanted.
I kept thinking he was going to take the hands off the wheel and pour himself some tea in the middle of the lap... He made me laugh just out of expectation when he was not even trying... LOL!
He was so emotional after getting to top of the leader board, his eyes went all red and teary and he was trying to hold it together bless him, 3:41 I'm glad he beat them all, he doesn't half have a passion for cars and he's hilarious :')
@@tkconnell i. Have asked the same question myself too. Probably the test was public or the Institution has published the results. Maybe Rowan himself have said this in an Interview.
Go watch his Blackadder series.. Those are different but at least as good if not better than mr Bean. The only reason Mr Bean is better known the world over is because he doesn't talk, so everybody could understand the jokes, no matter which language they speak. That's why they released mr Bean from Buenos Aires to Beijng....

Actually almost everybody with a degree has an IQ of at least 120. I have 125+ and I am an absolute buffoon! I bet Rowan has an IQ of at least 135, if not higher...
zanele Magwaza Ikr lol! I'm just used to hear mr.bean mumbling of some sort XD
To all the folk in the comments section who have never heard Rowan speak, try watching blackadder. A common staple for those of a certain age!
Oh yeah. A really good show. He was brilliant as always in that. 👍🏽
hey not just for people of a certain age, I wasn't born when it aired and I absolutely love it
@@jamesduffy7549 i have to say i enjoy it much more than mr bean...
ブラック・アダーは理解しづらいかもしれませんが、素晴らしいプログラムです
Black adder was friggin awesome
Goofy on-screen, Alpha in life. Bravo Mr Atkinson.
So many people haven't seen Blackadder and it shows. Man's a genius of the Sarcastic comedy.
Rowan Atkinson saying "what an ass" to himself at 1:48 😂😂😂
LOL 😂
😂
I have a lot of respect for this guy
me too
Rowan Atkinson looks like George Clooney
I know what you mean, I grew up on this chap
Mr Bean appears so poised and proper here fantastic to see the difference between Rowan and his character 😂😂
Well he has an IQ of 178 and holds a masters degree in Electrical Engineering. He just chose to take the comedic route and became one of the most beloved comedians of all time.
He was 2 sec faster than Nigel Mansell, Rubens Barrichello and Sebastian Vettel
that is just crazy
pretty sure the F1 stars were using the Suzuki Liana
Tom Cruise was also pretty darn fast if i remember correctly
he can talk?
yakikadafi hes more intelligent than youre hole family
Boris Neumann *your
lol
Boris Lakers the irony...
All humans can talk dude its common sence lol
He CANT STOP the Mr Bean charecter from coming out EVEN IF HE WANTED TO.Its so engrained in him.
His accent tho! Lol!
Know what's like the most amazing thing about this video? Something which I was sure, at first, was fake, but then later decided it was real. At 3:55, the tall guy in the white shirt is like smiling and stuff, then when Clarkson says "You're in the wrong career", look at what happens to his face! Amazing ..
Guy was like DAFUQ??
HAHAHA! Brilliant reaction!
I think he might be a fan XP
Buys a f1 for 800k, crashes it twice and still makes 8 million profit. He put life in his persona, his persona made his life. What a guy.
There is no person in the world cooler than Rowan Atkinson.
"In March 2001, while Atkinson was on a holiday trip to Kenya, the pilot of his private plane fainted. Atkinson managed to maintain the plane in the air until the pilot recovered, and was able to land the plane at Nairobi's Wilson Airport." -"Atkinson 'averted air disaster'". bbc.co.uk. 24 March 2001.

ENOUGH SAID
typingreallyfast holy shit.
patheticmada 😂
typingreallyfast he's gangsta
3:26 Rowan Atkinson, the FASTEST man ever! HAHAHAHA
"Baldrick, you wouldn't recognise a subtle plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on a harpsicord singing 'subtle plans are here again'."
He will always be Mr.Bean.
Ye tedddyyy
john alden Nah, he'll always be Edmund Blackadder IMO. Watch it if you haven't seen it, one of the greatest British sitcoms of all time.
Patrick S no he will always be Johnny English IMO
Rowan Atkinson looks exactly like Mr.Bean
guess why smart guy
Pretty sure Rocco knows that, he's making a joke.
probably if so i apologize
Mind you, all joking aside, you've got to admit he does look like him.
+Otacatapetl nope
9 years passed. TY TH-cam actually it's the right time
I am absolutely in awe and might I say besotted with the man. Rare combination of class, brains, charm,looks, humility and a certain “je ne sais quoi”.
He's an engineer, not surprised. Not to mention the way he drives in Mr. Bean.
Atkinson: the personification of calm
It'sa race! And I am winning!
Oooohhh I see what you did there
I hope I win**
+RisingJake *reads this in Bean's voice*
+RisingJake Were haulin' ASS.
He is a very intelligent man. Rowan Atkinson, born in 1955 in the UK, completed his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Newcastle University. In 1975 Atkinson went on to continue his studies to obtain a Master’s of Science in electrical engineering from The Queen’s College, Oxford. Although Atkinson did not complete his master’s studies, preferring to take his present career as a comedian, it shows that he knew what he was doing, as, if he followed engineering, he would not have been known, nor respected, nor paid, as he is a comedian. He was so intelligent in measuring the pulse of our society and catered for what people wanted.
Should put BEAN round in his Mini... He can drive I tell ya... lol
I kept thinking he was going to take the hands off the wheel and pour himself some tea in the middle of the lap... He made me laugh just out of expectation when he was not even trying... LOL!
He was so emotional after getting to top of the leader board, his eyes went all red and teary and he was trying to hold it together bless him, 3:41 I'm glad he beat them all, he doesn't half have a passion for cars and he's hilarious :')
He is a true capricorn. That's why he felt his emotions welling up but controlled it. watch him swallow.
Rowan has such an incredible voice. Off to listen to more interviews...
Even when Rowan is speaking seriously, I always have a constant feeling that the punchline is about to come up any second now ^^
Such a respectful man, good mannered .... i carry soo much respect for this person, amazing personality , polite, astonishing ... :)
One of my most favored interviews on old TG. He has such presence to him. He's funny, he's extremely smart and has a bee for cars and driving them.
This is by far the best Rowan Atkinson youtube clip off a tv show. I had a tear in my eye when I saw the lap time
He is legend. Definitely. Agree. Not only a simple star. Legend.
+Kakha Khmelidze Absolutely
Just saying, his IQ is 178. That's means that he is a genius.
Citation please
He is a genius but he is not one of the 5 smarter people on earth.
How does one know that? Isn't that considered "private" under current privacy/data laws? Just sayin
@@tkconnell i. Have asked the same question myself too.
Probably the test was public or the Institution has published the results.
Maybe Rowan himself have said this in an Interview.
I'KNEW'IT🌞!!!BRAVO👏👏👏🌟MR'ROWAN'ATKINSON🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆💞🎄💒🗽USA🌻🐝
WOW! Mr Bean/Rowan Atkinson is actually talking!
First time hearing his voice.
Go watch his Blackadder series.. Those are different but at least as good if not better than mr Bean. The only reason Mr Bean is better known the world over is because he doesn't talk, so everybody could understand the jokes, no matter which language they speak. That's why they released mr Bean from Buenos Aires to Beijng....
L2V lion king zazu was voiced by him as well !!!
L2V yeah me too
L2V me toooooo
Ian Dzp And Johnny English
Not a surprise for me
The way he has been driving his Mini for years, reversing, dodging, undoubtedly he has great driving skills also
