Check out what other chaos the trio caused with their French cars 👀 th-cam.com/video/L1aHe_4WCmE/w-d-xo.html
ok
What old airfield was the trebuchet scene filmed on?
Fetchez la vache!!
“Oh shit!”
is that colin furze’s trebuchet with some sheet metal on it?
Nice to see Citroen launch a new car.
🤣😂🤣😂❤
I see what u did there..lol
It's sales are gonna skyrocket.
A car who could fit in your dining room
Hell yeah
This is great comedy. But I would love to see how far it actually went
Same. You can see by the arc it wasn't that far.
@@andmicbro1 They have behind the scenes of that catapult launch on youtube, it went for like 100-200 meters
They can't show that.
It took out a boatload of "asylum seekers".
@@andmicbro1 camera trickery fully acceptable. :)
You just needed a bigger catapult and more powerrrrr xxx One of my favourite clips 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And perhaps move it a bit closer to France than the East Anglian airfield it was filmed on.
Everything can be improved with more POWER th-cam.com/video/ToyM657PxYk/w-d-xo.html
Trabuchet*
@@AtheistOrphanwhy does your profile pic show a hatred for christianity, please tell me
@@thatcreatenoob - Good question and thank you for asking.
I actually possess a deep loathing for ALL religions, and did in fact initially choose a similar profile pic that featured the symbols for Christianity, Judaism and Islam crossed-out, but it looked far too small, particularly when viewed on the small screen of a phone, so found this one and chose it for its more dynamic aesthetic.
I hope that answers your question. Thank you once again. Peace.😎☮️
I know is CGI but...i still like it. The silence when the car breaks into the house is comic, and see them preparing to launch the car in a "manly" way is so fun to watch that i barely care that the launch is fake.
its not cgi
@@hohoo4067 It is after it leaves the catapult.
I want to believe
@@MrStGeorgeIllawarra I want to think it’s CGI, but I’m not convinced.
And I loved the fact that they still launched the car in the first place.
When he said it's 'elastic' i was dying 😂😂
4:08 “OH SHIT” 😂
Hammonds fave after the car launched😂👌
This is the definition of unlimited budget
I saw it done with a Yugo. The car split into two pieces. It was held together with basically a single cotter pin.
Glad to see a use for French cars
I lost it at 3:55 when I hear the chuckling from them. You know it had to be the most amazing yet bizarre things to see it flying through the air like that…we’re all thinking it
Still legendary 😂
If I was a Brit with my country’s medieval history i would be making these types of jokes all the time and flinging large things with my massive trebuchet 😂
Bravo! What’s next? Pinto? Yugo? Fling away
0:18
Me & my friend wondering how to make drinking more fun when I feel the car keys in my pocket
When you know how really work a Trebuchet you know what's really hilarious in that
Major Tom to ground control
Richard: Turns out we are pretty manly
James: Oh Yeah.
Clarkson: Oh yes.
"Waait a minute"
"... Ohhh Yeaaah"
After watching "Top gear in skyrim goes wrong" i cant see this part the same way
Most British thing “he’s wearing a harness?” “Course he is, more than 6 feet innit”
🤣🤣🤣
I miss these guys
When I was a small child, I didn't want to believe my grandfather. He was telling me:
- You will see, in the 2000s, cars will fly.
He was right!
The new Hot Wheels catapult set do be looking good!
Oohhhh yeah
Thank you for the amazing meme material
Wait a minute.......oh yeah 😄😄😄😄😄😄
The "oh shit" xD in my mind I would be running far lol
omg i didnt know they was back doing the grand tour. hells yea i got a couple seasons to catch up on. god i missed it, an old top gear, but as long as they keep doing the grand tour its just as good if not better.
Unfortunately it never did got send back to France after all
Instead it landed into the house in the distance
When an orange car falls through your roof Ouch! who you going to call. The lawyers lol
I loved that episode :D
Merci beaucoup 🇫🇷
@@thegrandtour :D
29 seconds of hangtime 2900lb car approx. 84fps 318,00+fpe = wtf was that noise hun? WOW that's awesome
I laughed my ass off as it kept going and going and going! That was a tightly cranked trebuchet! LOL I'm forwarding this video to Elon Musk as a possible new way to launch Starlink Satellites into space.
All year 2000s French cars deserved this :p
First time seeing an original car launch 😂
That's a trebuchet not a catapult, sorry
WOW Di
I believe this was filmed in East Anglia so they would have needed a pretty powerful trebuchet!
Oh dear 🙄
I think they relied on CGI
@@An.Individual - Yes. The shots of the car in the air were either cgi, matted or rotoscoped. In all likelihood the car never left the trebuchet, and when it impacted the shed it was clearly dropped from a just-out-of-shot crane. Had it actually been fired from a trebuchet it would have described a shallow parabolic trajectory.
I'm starting to think the Top Gear budget is a little too high
4:08, Oh shit.
Oh shit
That launch didn't look real at all
The whole idea of not liking something from France and going “We don’t want it, YOU keep it!” is just too funny to me 😂
It's always a french car !
So where did it actually land?
There a new special on the works?
I wonder how they would have cocked it back in the day with out the machinery. Might have taken quite few four legged friends .
Where did the Citroen Pluriel actually land? Did it land in France?
It landed at most 100m in front of the trebuchet
you lot are a bunch of ` Toss pots` , but I love it....
Thanks a bundle, xxx
Roj
So, did it land in France?
...in your dreams...
I thought at first that the weight would just fall of and crush the car beneath it - but this is better :L
Where is the rest of the video ?
I never realized they faked this till the end.
0:26 - What’s the name of the music?
I wish they'd put a dummy or two in it... with these guys, wearing striped tops and garlands of onions
The fact that this is titled "Catapult a Citroen" is deeply offensive. That Citroen has clearly been slung.
Which episode was this?
Twenty miles away. Yeah right🤣🤣. That car would be lucky to go 200 feet.
Lol you should probably watch the video first before you comment next time
@@BarettRobertson what? The video is CGI 🤦🏻♂️
which season and episode?
This is from The Grand Tour Presents: Carnage A Trois and you can find it in Season 4 Episode 4.
Clarkson: oh sh**
Anyway.
For a while I thought it was like a paper airplane with all that airtime. But no its fake.
Is this a helium citroen?
No way they flung a car that far and some how perfectly and accidentally land DIRECTLY on top a shed, this has to be edited.... Right!?
is this real with the crash into the building or is that staged?
Le prix des maisons à Calais vient de perdre 20% en un instant! Le retour dans communauté européenne est enterré dans le jardin.
Was that Jezza’s barn, lol.
Wouldn't be the first time these guys destroyed Jeremy's farm buildings th-cam.com/video/VBm9bIlzXe4/w-d-xo.html
They should have tied the other end of the trigger to the rear bumper of a Rolls-Royce and pulled it that way.
The entire flight takes about 20 seconds. 25 miles are about 40 kilometres. This is the speed it will have at its arrival in France: 40000m/20s = 2000 m/s. As the speed of sound is 343 m/s, the citroen was travelling at 2000/343 = 5.8 times the speed of sound. This shows Jeremy’s genius in catapult-building abilities
I cant belive you waste time doing math
@@WiseTable Math is only a waste of time in the eyes of the ignorant.
It's almost frightening
@@HLP_Gaming As a Mathematics professor at the University of Hokkaido I would totally concur with your assertion. People that do not care for mathematics always seem to have a poor understanding of the subject. It is a testament to the inadequate instruction given in primary schools as it allowed these people to leave school without a proper understanding of the subject.
@vibratingstring get a job hippie 🤣
The way Clarkson says “Wait a minute” and then Hammond says “Oh yeah” is so funny to me
Same 😂
Intentional 😂
When me and my best friend have an idea be like...
probably the fastest that Citroen had ever gone.
and the fastest it has stopped.
Or any french car
😂😂
It probably looks a lot more attractive now !
They never disappoint with the destruction of cars 😂
Or caravans
@@SpiderPigggg Yeah true many have been destroyed lol
****cars
Caravans are useless actually
Cars and now also buildings
0:19 “WAIT A MINUTE!!!”
"OH YEAH!"
I'd like to see full launch clip from one angle, with no montage
Youd see a car fly maybe 30 yards
Doesn't exist
Check meteltech shorts they have the real behind the scenes launch
@@Drspeiser can't find it
That’s what I was looking for.
This clip goes to show that The Grand tour is 50% car reviews and the other 50% is the Trio playing IRL GMOD
The fact that these guys can at anytime say "yeah, but I trebucheted Citroen back to France" makes me jealous like nothing else in life
These guys are always extreme and this is on another level🤣🤣🤣
The complete silence as it goes through a building is the best part.
Speed of sound for you!
Would've loved to see the unedited footage of the car flying and crashing to the ground... I dont like all that cgi stuff.
What cgi mate? This is 100% real.
No it’s edited the car was in the air too long, plus I don’t think there was a house in the beginning
@@briand9764 no way, if you divide the force of the catapult by the circumference of pie the car is in the air for the correct amount of time.
@@Sasquatch10 but don’t you have to calculate your brains reaction time considering your metal plate? It’s all science
@@briand9764 I was only pulling your leg mate, of course it's CGI 😂
When I heard Jeremy say "Oh Shit" I couldn't stop laughing
Jeremy: Wait a minute?!🤔
Richard:Ohhhhh Yeahhhh!,😏
I remember watching this the first time and remarking out loud that this was very Pythonesque..... Well done Lads, the British car industry is now much more robust due to your efforts, Sadly.
"Clarkson and Hammond Could Trebuch-May a Citroën Back to France"
Teacher: don't throw paperplanes in class !!!
Me and my friends at the back of class:
Men never grow old, their toys just get bigger 🙂
Still the only reason to have Prime...
This & South Park.
Not wrong
Same day or next day delivery isn't bad either
People saying this is cgi. Most likely it's not. What is happening here is they launched the car multiple times to get it appear to stay longer in the air.
Also some of the air footage is slowed down hence it looks bit odd. The car is most likely dropped from a crane at the end when it hits the building.
Cgi or not its fake lame british sense of humour
It's CGI
what really ticks me off is the fact that they had time to
a) launch the catapult from the ground
b) get into a platform and had time to get their binoculars on
Trajectory with the car suggests that it would have landed in 10-15 seconds tops. Ain't nobody got time for that
@@FilthySnob I mean its still better than half of the western hemisphere's humour
@@FilthySnob I laughed. British humour is the best in the world, and I've known that since I was a kid.
As a French person it made me laugh, i love english humor ! ^^
I love Clarksons "WAIT A MINUTE"
“I love cranes mate”
Hammond's enjoyed playing with cranes before th-cam.com/video/LfiIr83EtRU/w-d-xo.html
Imagine coming home from a long day at work only for the first thing you see when you return is a car flying into the roof of your shed!😆
The French would be mad. Those 3 genius almost and litterally started another Hundred Years War against France which thank god that didn’t happen
1990: In the future we will have flying cars!!!
The future:
That “oh shit” got me 😂😂😂
can we get to see how far it actually went?
Ever since I saw May and Hammond review the Pluriel all those years ago, this is exactly what I wanted them to do just fling it all the way to Nice
I love British vocabulary. "We should send that miserable thing..."
Zniszczyć nowy samochód, za dobrze macie w tej Anglii
imagine just getting back home from a stressful day and just seeing 3 englishmen with a catapult launch a car into your shed
"It's a trebuchet" 🤓☝️
0:59 The perfect vehicle for him.
James: Hang on!
What James? Too fast?
Imagine looking up at the sky, and you see a random flying Citroen 😂
