It's still crazy to me that the only car that had no mechanical issues was James's Caterham which is basically a track toy and the one car that they lost was the Focus
Imagine you're getting married, this is to be one of the most important days of your entire life. You're on your way to where the wedding is going to be held and there's some short bloke with what looks like a cross between a car and a tank in the worst possible way blocking the road.

the caterham was the MVP of that episode. Also James we in australia would call that "road" a "track" as in a dirt track or a 4wd track sooo, technically it was doing fine on the "track"
I wish these 3 stop ageing and stay energetic , young for centuries to come , entertaining us with such a great content. Never seen a Genius like Clarkson A legendary Crasher like Hammond And a Slow mo like James .
Seeing thumbnail: "This is gonna be mad." Seeing the video: "Please spare me the horrible road." Seriously, Hammond made a huge mistake by uninventing the wheel with his caterpillars.
If they bought sensible things the show wouldnt be entertaining. Even in the African special James sensible car was chosen for its history in the region and being so bloody heavy.
As someone of Malagasy descent (living elsewhere, unfortunately), this is just embarrassing and sad. Between tough terrain, colonialism, and corruption, many of our roads are in shambles. We can never develop our economy without infrastructure reform and modernization. This is sad, but true from an economic standpoint.
Hammond's car using tracks instead of wheels would've been a good idea in Wales: cold weather and muddy paths, but with heat and rocks, the wheels of those tracks were doomed.
Bentley SERIOUSLY needs to turn the MFB into a real car. The Continental has proven Time and time AGAIN that it’s main hidden party piece is just how good it is as Off-Roading
These roads would put modern Ford Raptors and Broncos and Jeep Wranglers and Chevy Colorado ZR2s through their paces. It’s amazing that the only car that broke was the car that was built by the most off road person of the 3
the road wheels were too small for off road use, those tracks were for snow-like conditions. Earlier in the show when theyre on a potholed road you see the little roadwheels flying off everytime he hit a pothole, as in literally being ejected away
2:50 I was surprised he admitted to the audience that James May’s friend Mary was right that the roads in Madagascar are so bad. From watching the show you would need a military vehicle, just to drive on those roads.
Do you think this is the worst road in the world?
Totally.
Yes anyways
Yea it's an off-road road.
1:48 Well, Amazon paying for the restoration would be a descent thing to do. I at least hope Amazon compensated the people you guys blocked.... 😏
Most definitely
Jezza's Bentley looks so Mad Max. I am glad he kept it for getting around the farm.
should've called it the Battle Bentley
@@oldfrend The Battley
It's the official Diddly Squat Fast Response Vehicle now
imagine the trio on the fury road
It's now in a glass case at the Bentley factory
It's still crazy to me that the only car that had no mechanical issues was James's Caterham which is basically a track toy and the one car that they lost was the Focus
because it is the simplest one of them.
I know, right? I thought the Caterham was already dead.
In this scenario the Caterham was in essence a dune buggy. So it doing so well, was to be expected.
@@MrSilnevYeah that's exactly what I thought. With longer travel suspension it would have absolutely ripped.
James' Caterham is just the coolest thing ever. I want one so bad, and modify it like that.
Except when driving through mud pools in rural areas. Some of them even had turds and smell way bad.
Scooby Fuckin Dooooooo
Just add a roof and your good.

Hammond could crash a tortoise.
He's fallen off or crashed in every conceivable form of transport.
i think he didnt crash a helicopter yet.
Do you reckon it could be something to do with his dying his hair, all the time, toxins, or just stupid?
@@collincovid6950 He's from Birmingham. The city that invented industrial accidents.
😂😂😂
Tortoise looks worried. 🐢
It’s so funny when Hammond is the chaos master
Always has been lol 😂🤣
LOL I love the grand tour man

That Caterham deserves so much respect. Don't get me I wrong I like the Bentley but credit where it's due to that Caterham
Tractor tires are great
@@dancearoundtheworld5360 on a track car, thats still very very impressive
100% agree, what a piece of engineering it is amazing stuff
“This is the worst road…
*pause*
…in the world.”
A classic Jeremy Clarkson dramatic pause.

I think about this way too often
Seeing thumbnail: "This is gonna be mad."
Seeing the video: "Please spare me the horrible road."
Seriously, Hammond made a huge mistake by uninventing the wheel with his caterpillars.
It do looks good tho, really satisfies his 17yo taste
It also didn't help that Hammond was losing parts when he was on the road.
i blame the ford it was on
so wait let me get this straight James told everyone that his friend Mary told that Madagascar has the worst roads ever and turned up in a Caterham
If you watched it, he bought Caterham for Reunion in the first place, not for Madagascar
If they bought sensible things the show wouldnt be entertaining. Even in the African special James sensible car was chosen for its history in the region and being so bloody heavy.
Browny points for James though, the Caterham didn't actually break down the entire journey.
When the idea of the comment goes woosh
In it's defense it handled the terrain surprisingly well. What it failed to do was protect James as it did so 😂

Why are you unfortunately living somewhere else? Atleast you don’t have to bear the roads
@@char_ytt I was born in the US. It wasn’t my choice to leave.
embarrassing? it looks like a fun place to push the limits of your off roader lmao
@hayvenforpeace as much as the US sucks sometimes, I'm not sure if ya truly wanna be back home
I dont think you have anything to be embarrassed about
Hammond's car using tracks instead of wheels would've been a good idea in Wales: cold weather and muddy paths, but with heat and rocks, the wheels of those tracks were doomed.
Just imagine if everyone who lived there took a pick axe out and a shovel to that road. They'd be getting to places way quicker.
Clarkson actually showing some genius with the armour playing he put on the underside of his car
I think James might have hit the camera car at 5:31 you can see the brake light reflecting on James's headlamps. 😅
LoL for sure he did 🤣.
Just watched this episode, this was HELL. These men are brave and I honestly felt their pain... Hammond m8, that was tough
what is the name of the episode pls
@@naryan475 The grand tour, season 4, episode 2 a massive hunt
@@emmanuelchukwunonso7788 thanks bro
I'll never complain about roads in Pennsylvania if this is what parts of the world have to drive on
That Bentley was simply awesome!!
That Caterham crabbing thru the rut was hilarious
I don't get why this episode is somewhat disliked, I enjoyed this one.
Yes me too
The ending was a wimper that's why
@@kk1217 well...fair point, it was a bummer
@@kk1217 its not a may hammond clarkson ending without a bombshell or a disappointment at the end
Bentley SERIOUSLY needs to turn the MFB into a real car. The Continental has proven Time and time AGAIN that it’s main hidden party piece is just how good it is as Off-Roading
Bentley reminds me of comodo dragon, slowly going where it wants, no matter the terrain
Toujours aussi géniaux !!
On est loin de leurs remplaçants…
The Caterham looks like a toy RC-Buggy. 🤔👍🏻
James car has better articulation than a jeep
These guys are rock stars in my book
It's gotta be Hamond every time😂
Chances are if Hammond had regular tracks he’d get across that road perfectly.
Real question is, how did Hammond rescue his Tank Ford - that is, of course if he survived an angry wedding procession
With boring old normal wheels, from a random truck
The wedding party helped out actually. Ended up being very friendly people
Because it's all scripted, and the wedding party (if there actually was a wedding) were locals paid by the production team.
There is no Better Thing Than German-American Tank Here. Mr Hammond
These roads would put modern Ford Raptors and Broncos and Jeep Wranglers and Chevy Colorado ZR2s through their paces. It’s amazing that the only car that broke was the car that was built by the most off road person of the 3
the bentley broke too, plus they don't actually build their cars
The Bentley had problems only because mud filled the radiators. Other than that, nothing went wrong with it.
yes, that broke the radiator hose, it still broke
Idc how cool the focus was and how well made the Caterham was the Bently won this
The MFB will never not be cool 😎 th-cam.com/video/WCdS2RXHLrY/w-d-xo.html
3:49 more great wildlife filming from the camera crew
Lol reminds me of the africa special where car content specific camera men fail to capture proper wildlife footage
that road is smooth as glass compared to the potholes in my hometown...
You must be Irish
James the funny looking man
01:38
*AAAAARGH!!!* - Richard Hammond
James should have used a lotus.
a red one? 😉
you would think this is almost like the roads about mid ulster when all the lads in the 306 d turbos are about.
"The Madagascans call this the RN5..."
"which stands for..."
" *Rampant Numbness 5th vertabrae* "
That thing Jeremy brought was a straight up tank and it looks sick I want one of those.
0:54 wise words
Hammond the chaos master!
Now I want to see Ferrari F40 Offroad vers do this
That caterham is so Inpressive
Would totally watch a show where James just has a miserable time every episode lol I mean, every special is basically that 😅
“CLARKSON!”-James May
Richard Hammond, the God of Destruction, known for destroying cars as well as himself.
FOR SALE. Be quick before it's gone!
Bentley Continental. Only used for a single journey on a local high way!
Takes like 20seconds to tension those tracks properly too. But Hammond had the right idea out of the box.
the road wheels were too small for off road use, those tracks were for snow-like conditions. Earlier in the show when theyre on a potholed road you see the little roadwheels flying off everytime he hit a pothole, as in literally being ejected away
James in this episode as powerful as Hammond with Subaru back in the day
Welcome to my lovely country 😂😂
Just have fun with these
Nothing's my old FJ40 Land Cruiser couldn't handle 😊
If that's the main road, imagine what the minor road will be----none
the benhtey looks like a catfish with this extensions. 😁 but its performance is so brilliant.
Traffic Jam in Route National, , , , , just normal day in my country.
Well, this is UNIMOG terrain 😂
This is the perfect How-Slow-Can-You-Go competition.
These guys are your great friend 😎 power power
3:46 beans!
That's gold I tell ya
"" He is not a pirate he is the groom''.
Is Jeremy Clarkson driving a fuxking *4×4 BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT* through the jungle!?? 🤯🙆♂️... Thoroughbred MadLads I tell ya' 😩 😭 😂
Lovely to see a Bentley Continental in a proper condition. All of Beverly Hills is watching, and gasping.
Gently in Bentley haha
- Å fan!
the only vehicle you can drive there is a Puch Pinzgauer 6x6
Once a lagend always a lagend
1:49 ooohhh il parle français letttssss goooo
the catrem is just the dune buggy from GTA
These Roads are just like the highlands roads in Scotland
My Ford F-150 "mini monster truck" would take that "road" in stride, like a groomed stallion!
all these noises remind of of the game Carmageddon, great game by the way.
It's a smooth road
The road:
2:50 I was surprised he admitted to the audience that James May’s friend Mary was right that the roads in Madagascar are so bad. From watching the show you would need a military vehicle, just to drive on those roads.
Ford Raptor, Brabus G850 would be nice in here.. Bentley works fine XD
I want the Bentley 😍😍😍😍
You can pick up Continentals quite cheap now.
Use the marauder Richard.
that thumbnail is something else
I would have used a Hennessey VelcoiRaptor with a camper on the in the back tub
i Really hope they make more also about the farm too :D
The roads in Michigan are a lot like these!
mx riders when they see this road: [happieness noises]
Even the bentley didnt handled the madagascan roads well
These 3 raw diamonds are genius clowns , hope they stay around for a long time !👍
The Didly squat fast response vehicle origin story
01:31 Fury Car Gets Stuck
should of stuck with a Subaru Richard Hammond. Subaru's dominate these roads with the proper lift
If I ever reincarnated, this would the best job in the world, on the worst roads of the 🌍. But hats off for this trio.
Does anybody knows what music plays at 4:40 when Caterham go through rocks? Sorry for my english
ASAP Rocky looked pretty pissed
Need more episodes team
im from Australia and i can drive all of those cars up that road with no problem
Good fucking luck lol they all have normal diffs and low ground clearance
Offroading is fun
Need to be rich enough like Clarkson to have Bently modified to be like this
Meh, i had fun doing that in The Crew and NFS HEAT
I would love to turn a Ferrari 458 into a offroader, fuck what Ferrari thinks
It’s not his. It’s a prop provided by the production company.
@@AtheistOrphan yeah but he now owns it, this time with matching parts
I could base these guys as characters in my stories
Surely you mean the other way round?
I bet Andy Sugden could get a Bentley up it 😀
Why did nobody tell me TGT had been through Shropshire?!
