+BigJoe_Buster Bring back the days when dads played with model trains with their kids! And throw out those ruddy iphones and androids and all that ruddy nonsense. When was the last time a child sat down and played with a set of Meccano? Fuck I miss my childhood...
+JonatanGronoset Im 15 and don't have a smartphone and i build Airfix kits and play with Meccano although my dad isn't really interested in it. I guess im an exception..
I find James May to be a very intelligent and interesting man. The kind of guy you couldhave an interesting conversation with over a beer or two down the local pub.
No don't go, I have a pond next to my house and they do that at night. All of a sudden, Quack, quack, quack, quack, really loud! It's not a scared call either. It's clear something just made it laugh. A dream perhaps of a human falling into mud, who knows. Then another distant quack, quack. Like a ha, ha, now go to sleep. Why shouldn't they laugh? Anything, any animal with emotions (animals all have emotions just like humans) has a laugh in their language. We just don't understand duck! My dogs laugh! So do my cats. You can clearly see them smile and laugh especially after they have stolen or gotten away with something which is completely something animal/people do! Dreams. It's silly to assume they don't have a range of emotions same as humans. If people acknowledged this, they'd have a harder time killing them the way they do.
+Brandon Ottinger (JaqenH'ghar80) I dont think so, that looks like an elbow stuck up so Im guessing its a snooker player,hairstyle looks like Ray Reardon.
Lol. I do love James. Guy is awesome. I see nothing wrong with a guy who knows what he is talking about, even if the topic is a little bit bland. Quite frankly, someone who knows what they are talking about is very much needed on the internet right now.
+YYI Flight Simulation It would be great, cuz he wouldnt care enough to spank anybody. But also any potentially spank ridden child could outrun him, because James *only* runs on TV
There is something that James has, some trait that I can't put my finger on (Maybe how pensive he is?) that makes him beyond fascinating. This is the dude you wanna sit down with and talk to for hours. VERY Well spoken. Not like the typical celeb.
People in the industry would call it screen presence. But to definte it better - he brings a unique style, politeness (with occasional bluntness), thoughtfulness, wit, knowledge, and a special way with words. I hear James May say interesting things I've never heard anywhere else. Definitely gifts & skills combined!
I actually like how James May explains things, I can actually keep up with what he's saying. Who else will tell you in detail the difference between a regular screwdriver and a Japanese screwdriver while working on an old Honda?
+Jupe But not as a chauffeur, as he also suggested... It would be awfully slow, tedious, you'd never find the right place and you'd be bored to death at the end of the trip after a spontaneous hour long explanation of how the car's window winding mechanism works.
Stop trying regulate my thoughts, my actions, my statements. You are entitled to your opinion, I am entitled to mine and I will express it in whatever way I wish. Incidentally you defend Fry as having never done anything wrong - were you aware that he has "done time" for credit card fraud? I am not your bro, I have no wish to be your bro.
+Vincent Chu Its called drinking if you misbehave. Until this point it is called lifestyle. And as Clarkson, May indulges in a rather libertarian lifestyle. They are artists after all.
I've always found no matter how boring a subject may appear to be if the person presenting it is genuinely enthusiastic about it that enthusiasm comes across and draws you in and James May certainly does that.
I just love Clarkson, Hammond and May... sometimes I'm with Clarkson... sometimes I agree with Hammond... and sometimes I May i spot on... this combination does not grow on trees... they are soo different but then again not so different... in the future they will make a baby out of their DNA (yes one combination out of 3 different DNA strands) and he/she will be called Mayhamson...
yes, we want you as our Dad so we can laugh at you and you don't care. we want you to be Dad who is interested in our boring school homework and we want you to show us how stuff work which is what most kids find interesting, unless it's taught at school followed by a test, then it's boring.
"...that's well done, you've beaten us, we were both through to the final there, but you've done a film about paedophiles, and I've done about a lego house, and which would you rather find in your garden?..." HAHAHA LEGEND!!
" I don't have a radio 2 show" I laughed way too much for what the statement was worth. also I'm pretty sure millions of foster kids would want you as a dad, I reckon you'd be an awesome teacher and father, handing your skills down to the next generation.
"It's going to be something disappointing, so it's gonna be uncle, teacher, ... doormat~" ... ... ... "Dad? How could you want someone to be your dad??" "Go see a specialist!"
You cost me a carpet and a TV Mr May. Your question about which one would you like to have in your garden caused me to choke on my dinner ,then stand up and finally throw my head through the TV. Well done.
behind him there is, a framed picture of a newspaper, a picture of a snooker player, and a massive toy dalek.. this would be a weird combination normally at someones house, but from james, i can't say I'm surprised!
James I know it don't matter but I find you incredibly intelligent and your laugh is very unique and it makes me laugh .No i'm not gay . I am married with 2 kids and 9 grandchildren .
Well to me James May is already a national treasure and id be happy to call him my dad (based off what iv seen, he seems to be a very nice man.). You think too little of your self, man!
"James is very good at explaining how a train works" That's dad material right there.
+BigJoe_Buster Very true. My dad used to be an aeroplane mechanic, but he changed his carreer about 25 years ago and he's a train driver now.
+BigJoe_Buster That might be the best explanation of a proper dad I've read
+BigJoe_Buster Bring back the days when dads played with model trains with their kids! And throw out those ruddy iphones and androids and all that ruddy nonsense. When was the last time a child sat down and played with a set of Meccano? Fuck I miss my childhood...

Gary Dunn I'm in love with James May. For the very reasons you state. Thank you for writing them.
Gary Dunn very true but I can't help but laugh when they joke about when he is slow
Gary Dunn that one would have to have a few drinks to make him sound interesting first in the pub.
Gary Dunn same
James is a international treasure.
Henrik Abrahamsson an*
sorry :)
developing point here))
I would listen to james may ramble on about something that i have no idea about for days
Clearly a lot of people felt that way.. Must be how the reassembler came about
zachery ji I like him he's interesting yeh sure a bit old fashioned but that's a good thing
I can`t even understand everything he says but I like to watch videos of him talking too
i think james is a bit of a national treasure already actually :)

@toasty - indeed, and *if* he presented the lotto, that would mean that he *wasn't* a national treasure.

I suppose he's got a point about ducks having a laugh. They get quacked up.

So I thought of you and some other alike youtubers when he said "Why would anyone want me as a dad? So I can explain to them how a train works?"
WildNorWester i will open the door for you
He is literally high all the time or drunk. I love this guy, he is the kinda Person you would want as a friend.
+GhettoMist Well he did once say that driving a bus was easier than hosting Top Gear because "You can have a Joint"... so I'm assuming high!
Why must he limit himself to be high or drunk.
+GhettoMist Drunk. The correct answer is drunk. Have you seen his series about French wine culture?

@Ramboghini Balboni Thank you
The wallpaper is so British.
wheels1988 old English maybe
to be fair, it would be really cool if May were my dad
+MICROmor Imagine James May spanking you... think about it twice..
+YYI Flight Simulation It would be great, cuz he wouldnt care enough to spank anybody. But also any potentially spank ridden child could outrun him, because James *only* runs on TV
+Jason Bonedi On the contrary, James "will never run on television".
I don't even know what to say
Go See A Specialist.
Shut up, James. We all know you'd want yourself as your dad.
James should be the next Dr. Who
Thomas Durand There’s a dalek!
Yeah man you're just saying that because of the dalek behind him
That’s ACTUALLY not a bad idea
Clarkson should be Dr who and have a sonic hammer
Too much running involved I think... he would be brilliant though

+Audiojackful he made some guy miss his own premier when he became a limo driver
Here he is for 3 minutes and 54 seconds!
I love how confused May is about these comments.
Id love to see James on QI
+suttoo85 The whole trio on QI would be wicked. It would just be 45 minutes of them arguing lmao
You can also keep your self-righteous, superior attitude to yourself. Also, I am certainly NOT your "bro".
k4k 1ok Everyone's my bro which makes you my bro. Asking you not to be rude is not the same as being self-righteous
Stop trying regulate my thoughts, my actions, my statements. You are entitled to your opinion, I am entitled to mine and I will express it in whatever way I wish. Incidentally you defend Fry as having never done anything wrong - were you aware that he has "done time" for credit card fraud?
I am not your bro, I have no wish to be your bro.
I know he's been to prison for it. So?
You are my bro, no way to change that. Everyone in the universe is my bro, which includes you.
How much did May drink before this video?
+Vincent Chu
Its called drinking if you misbehave. Until this point it is called lifestyle. And as Clarkson, May indulges in a rather libertarian lifestyle. They are artists after all.
+Vincent Chu The average amount.
Vincent Chu All of it.
Vincent Chu the usual
He has one of the best natural voices I know.
James May has pushed Stephen Fry from the top of my favorite people list.
I've always found no matter how boring a subject may appear to be if the person presenting it is genuinely enthusiastic about it that enthusiasm comes across and draws you in and James May certainly does that.
James May is so funny when he says OH COCk!
I just love Clarkson, Hammond and May... sometimes I'm with Clarkson... sometimes I agree with Hammond... and sometimes I May i spot on... this combination does not grow on trees... they are soo different but then again not so different... in the future they will make a baby out of their DNA (yes one combination out of 3 different DNA strands) and he/she will be called Mayhamson...
He was so offended about 'dad' comment I cried from laughing too hard. He is true gem!
James May is a legend definately, every series / programme he has participated in has been interesting. James May's was total brilliance.
yes, we want you as our Dad so we can laugh at you and you don't care. we want you to be Dad who is interested in our boring school homework and we want you to show us how stuff work which is what most kids find interesting, unless it's taught at school followed by a test, then it's boring.

I love James may I put him along side Stephen fry
Stephen Fry is very, very annoying. No, just no.
I'm a big fan of James May. I miss "The Reassembler" shows but I'm probably one of a very few.
john thaxton I enjoyed The Reassembler as well.
James May is my spirit animal
one of the coolest man on earth
" I don't have a radio 2 show" I laughed way too much for what the statement was worth. also I'm pretty sure millions of foster kids would want you as a dad, I reckon you'd be an awesome teacher and father, handing your skills down to the next generation.
i love James. his laugh knocks my socks off
I love the dalek and dalek and tardis wallpaper.
I want James to be my squeeze. He can be my national treasure any day.
+Katherine I'm thinking the same about you.
Thanks, +Coppertunes

Shaf Hoque where
+a coincidence? 0:18
Quack quack quack quack quack!
".............see a specialist." ROFL... xD
"can i have hair like James May's please?"
and now i actually do.
James May is the most British person I've seen TV in quite some time. He is even more British than the Queen. i.e. " Now that is a proper meat pie. "
God save James May should be the new national anthem.
He seems like a nice guy.
James, you are a legend, it's time for that Radio 2 show!
"It's going to be something disappointing, so it's gonna be uncle, teacher, ... doormat~"
...
...
...
"Dad? How could you want someone to be your dad??"
"Go see a specialist!"
You don't need to have a Radio 2 show to be a national treasure, just carry on being yourself, it's what Brits do best (including this one).
James has a sense of humor that stretches the limit occasionally such as his closing bit.....
Great news the Dacia Sandero
How can you not like James may, the way he explains everything.
The fact that I only NOW see the Dalek behind him,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Love
Just pure love
These are the most tame comments I have ever seen
can we get a 10 hour video of this, im sure james would get behind it, 5 comments isnt enough i want 500! minimum!
we all love james may for his slow driving, bland jokes and unapologetic nerdiness
You cost me a carpet and a TV Mr May. Your question about which one would you like to have in your garden caused me to choke on my dinner ,then stand up and finally throw my head through the TV. Well done.
''theres no point in telling my videos are rubbish, i know they are'' -James May 2015... brilliant
He shows a strong resemblance to the shape of the dalek behind him
The audio levels of this video are all over the shop.
I love the fact that he has Doctor Who wallpaper, a Dalek, and a photograph of the Master in the room behind him.
I quite like James' choice of wallpaper in this room. I hope its in his house... possibly a set? IDK but it rocks
James may is really really utterly comedic when he explains about maintenance
James may kinda reminds me of Sheldon Cooper, but he's still awesome.
"You did a film about pedophiles, I did one on a Lego house. Which would you rather find in your garden?" James is amazing! haha
James, you're cool for being you!
Carry on!
behind him there is, a framed picture of a newspaper, a picture of a snooker player, and a massive toy dalek.. this would be a weird combination normally at someones house, but from james, i can't say I'm surprised!
Jeremy Clarkson > BBC
I want James to be my specialist.
i love james may he is the man of my dreams i love him to bits
Tbh I find James to be witty and interesting, I also love his facination with with trains
James I know it don't matter but I find you incredibly intelligent and your laugh is very unique and it makes me laugh .No i'm not gay . I am married with 2 kids and 9 grandchildren .
that dalek in the background is missing an ear lamp
James may gives the old TOP gear the documentary element with his set of skills
You got with that last joke James. Good job.
Why want him as your Dad? Train sets.
I hope that is his actual house because i'de love the fact that he has a Darlek, because then he'd be a fellow Whovian like me!
Mr May. You are one of my three favourite people in the history of this planet. More power to you!
My grandpa is already the best but having James as an extra grandpa would be pretty awesome!
James may is the best, i love the way he talks about British stuff such as spitfires and flying Scotsman
'why would you want that as your dad??
See a specialist.'
James May is amazing and a great part of grand tour...he is part of grand tour and would work without him...
I love that Wall design in back of him.
It's very difficult not to like this man.
Well to me James May is already a national treasure and id be happy to call him my dad (based off what iv seen, he seems to be a very nice man.).
You think too little of your self, man!
I love that Dalek behind him!
“Uncle, teacher, doormat, chauffeur”
_-James May_
James May would make a great dad considering his tv shows, 'James May Toy Story' show and 'Man Lab'.
I watch James and Oz stuff just to be comforted by your strangely comforting persona. I don't get it either, but thanks!
You can't kick a downed guy. James is so flat and witty, i love it.
That wall paper is so much win I can't even stand it!
James would be a great dad, because he could say something interesting about anything
james is too pure.
I could watch a lot of this...
James May!! Bring back top gear
They sort of did. The Grand Tour on Amazon Prime.
An easy going manner and a good voice goes a long way. Good show the Reassembler Mr May.
"I don't think there's much future left for me to be a national treasure!" lol
Why the hell has he put padded wallpaper on his living room wall? Still national treasures are allowed to do that. James May is a legend!
lol dad
James is allready a legend! love him!
I would honestly enjoy a nice little chat with James May
