James comparing the 😂 emoji to announcing “it’s going to be very funny” equates to “it’s not very funny” reminds me that he always says something is “very interesting” and it’s not.
I always imagine clarkson standing at his side and yelling at him "JAAAAMMMEESSS STOP TALKING AND WATCH THE NEXT VIDEO!!!!" everytime he talks too much about something. 😂
I don't think James, Richard & Jeremy have any idea how much we love them. That's the reason those small & out of context clips are such a source of amusement for us. We have grown up & older watching you, and hopeful that you'll continue making more of your shows. You as a trio are Awesome but the solo ones where we get to see each one of you in your own zone is something totally amazing. Richard's Big, Clarkson's Farm & Our Man in Japan... ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️
If someone said a person was watching tiktok while reciting the tiktok's URL, I could've told you it was James May. There is no other human on the planet that does that What a treasure
I love how James often ask in the shows he's in, Who's watching this ? as he does not find it entertaining, so neither should we, is an amazing way of conduct for one who has spent the past 20 years or so in front of a camera.
I have to say, that James looks better than ever in this video! I thought that before the aging through the years clip, but the grey and the short beard really suits him, very distinguished and kinda hot!
This is so meta. I usually think of reaction videos as lazy content stealing, but James is reacting to videos that are essentially just stolen from him, Jeremy, Richard and the others, as in the BBC and Amazon. He's stealing his own content back.
The really sad part of this video, was me finding out that I'm almost three years older than James May. I'll still always look up to him like the old odd uncle though.
"new humour" Tik tok is barely humour at all, it's superficial easy-to-digest content that numbs people's minds to keep them swiping their phones endlessly. Almost like a drug if you ask me
If it is makes you feel better, I’d gladly take 5 minutes of Man Lab over the entirety of TikTok. Also, I love how he recalls where everything is from. Why did they cut him talking about cheese for ten minutes? He is fun to listen to.
James May’s absolute disgust at the low effort TikTok memes makes me happy.
Low effort is the bane of anyone who has a brain. Of course May would dislike it.

@@kirihara147 nah it's an age thing
@@kirihara147 Kind of embarrassing that you clicked onto a video about tiktok memes then isn't it?
"I'm rather disturbed by this, shall we make some sandwiches" ah James never change 😂
I love how this is not James May reacting to TikTok’s, but just James May watching TikTok’s
James, you're a loved celebrity. We did watch you reassembling a lawnmower... We'll watch ANYTHING they put on TH-cam or anywhere else about you three. Period.
I really like his documentaries
@@JoshuaC923 Absolutely!
I still miss 'the Reassembler'
@@mrchunkygreen my favourite was the toy stories
Ditto.
James comparing the 😂 emoji to announcing “it’s going to be very funny” equates to “it’s not very funny” reminds me that he always says something is “very interesting” and it’s not.
"Like and hit the plus for part two" 😤
based
The fact that James spoke about cheese for so long was incredible
Well, is it really?
I always imagine clarkson standing at his side and yelling at him "JAAAAMMMEESSS STOP TALKING AND WATCH THE NEXT VIDEO!!!!" everytime he talks too much about something. 😂
Once again James May proves he’s one of the most precious humans that’s ever tried to understand the internet.
I would watch pretty much everything James talks about, reacts and builds.
I don't think James, Richard & Jeremy have any idea how much we love them. That's the reason those small & out of context clips are such a source of amusement for us.
We have grown up & older watching you, and hopeful that you'll continue making more of your shows. You as a trio are Awesome but the solo ones where we get to see each one of you in your own zone is something totally amazing. Richard's Big, Clarkson's Farm & Our Man in Japan... ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️
If someone said a person was watching tiktok while reciting the tiktok's URL, I could've told you it was James May. There is no other human on the planet that does that
What a treasure
He’s just a genuine man. You can watch anything with him in it.
“10 million, that’s quite a lot of money”
Resumes by saying:
“It takes me a month to earn that…”
"That's just bollocks" - TikTok summed up.
I love how James often ask in the shows he's in, Who's watching this ?
as he does not find it entertaining, so neither should we, is an amazing way of conduct for one who has spent the past 20 years or so in front of a camera.
James May: "If you watched it I'd be amazed."
Do proceed.
This video is basically like me showing a meme I found funny to my parents and them not finding it funny
Maturely will do that.
"Mind you 10,000,000 is a lot ; takes me nearly a month to earn that"
Duuude😂thats the most subtle but outrageous flex I've ever seen
I have to say, that James looks better than ever in this video! I thought that before the aging through the years clip, but the grey and the short beard really suits him, very distinguished and kinda hot!
Thanks. I thought I was the only 1 lol
Can we have an uncut version of James talking about cheese??
James goes on about cheese for 10 minutes and I genuinely want to watch that. James's unscripted ramblings are gold.
Next: James May reacts Top Gear Sigma Male Grindset videos. Oh boy.
This must happen.
This video is a direct representation of how broken my humor is. James has made me realize how unfunny some things are lol
Hey if it made you laugh, your brain found it funny. That’s it, nothing else, the brain chemicals were simply released🙂
I really could've never initially predicted how James May would react, yet it was so obvious after I saw it.
I'm so, so, so very happy to have enjoyed Top Gear growing up. Those three were genuine enjoyment and knowledge.
Please upload the 10 minute cheese rant. The world needs it.
I love his reactions. James May watching TikTok is like trying to explain politics to a stunned pigeon.
I want to hear James May talking about cheese for 10 minutes
This is so meta. I usually think of reaction videos as lazy content stealing, but James is reacting to videos that are essentially just stolen from him, Jeremy, Richard and the others, as in the BBC and Amazon. He's stealing his own content back.
"I don't look at TikToks of myself because I'm not conceited" The levels upon levels of wit this man has is beyond me.
The really sad part of this video, was me finding out that I'm almost three years older than James May.
I'll still always look up to him like the old odd uncle though.
2:34 fully expected him to turn to the camera and specify "right, the british military weren't actually there when we filmed that"
What James is not realising yet is that "RANDOM" is the new humour. He actually did a great job in the past.
Yeah......"humour"
But i suppose if most people think one way it becomes the norm....unfortunately
"new humour" Tik tok is barely humour at all, it's superficial easy-to-digest content that numbs people's minds to keep them swiping their phones endlessly. Almost like a drug if you ask me
I made a video in high school for an assignment that was completely random skits. It made zero sense.
If it is makes you feel better, I’d gladly take 5 minutes of Man Lab over the entirety of TikTok.
Also, I love how he recalls where everything is from.
Why did they cut him talking about cheese for ten minutes? He is fun to listen to.
