That is what I have been saying as well, and I absolutely agree with you this special is so good and funny! I think I have watched this special 3 times already and it has made me consistently laugh my head off each time. Also James’ pranks this time around were hilarious
Now it's easy to assume that James May just had professional help from people behind the camera when he modified his mates' cars. However I would like to present an alternate story. James May has been presenting car centered television for about 25 years. His job, combined with his natural curiosity means he might already have had some idea of how to rewire the lights, horn and such on a car. Out of spite, determination and strong vengeful spirit, he sat down and googled enough to fill in the gaps to create the perfect revenge er... _revenges_ It was most likely a group effort, but I do like the idea of Captain Slow patiently planning and executing his vengeance like an evil genius. No matter who helped him out (or not), his methods of revenge sure were brilliant. Clarkson's Dictator Carriage and Hammond's Noise Mobile sure made for a _grand_ humiliation parade.
@@Alfred-fu1ev is it scripted? obviously. but to call it all fake? loool you sound like someone that just figured out it's scripted and got disapointed xD :D doubt the crash was scripted, or the lake fall. there's some improvisation and obviuosly they plan some things. remember the "secret base"? wouldn't happen if it weren't planned. the location of workshops, the material needed for repairs, the proper authorization for filming and driving like that on the roads, obviusly it must be planned beforehand. and I do believe some things are known beforehand by producers and director and not by the trio. there are improvised scenes and stuff happens. but it's mostly obviously scrpited and whoever doesn't know that is just plain naive. and being scripted doesnt mean not funny... one of the funiest episodes they have made and one of the funniest shows.
@@Diogo503The thing is with their scripting, they come up with things they're likely to do or say anyway and then just work it into a TV-esque script. To put it another way, Sit David Attenborough reads from a script, but most of what he's saying is factually accurate.
Okay -- I'm guessing the "Jersey cowhide upholstering" wasn't included because Clarkson said he actually liked it --suited the lunacy of the Mitsuoka design perfectly.
I'm honestly shocked Hammond and Clarcson has not learned by now that May HAPPILY takes apart and puts things back together. they should have learned this during TOPGEAR!
Think about the "I am impotent" prank made by James on Richard's car at 3:00 - Richard is the man who has fathered two daughters, but James has never had children with his partner.
@@TheGreatThicc It's an in joke in the team. I remember when they were in the US bible belt area in 2007 and Jeremy said that if they told them that James was single they would have thought he was gay.
Some people haven't seen it yet. I have seen the episode so all good with me. Absolutely the best episode yet. I was laughing so loud I think my neighbours must have thought I'd lost my mind.
Hungary is on the southern border of Slovakia. The languages are semi familiar so can guess what it is. It’s like Ye Olde English. “Be thy fair maiden” you know what I’m saying roughly
Can you do a compilation of the lads explaining why rubbish cars are great (old jags, Astons, lotus, Alfas, lancias) with Top Gear Logics "that's a safety feature" "and he's thrown in an entire lorry!"
You need to do a compilation of the presenters describing a challenge from the cards in the envelopes given by the producers. Because you have not done that at all.
I love the double standard here. When they screw with James, it’s funny. But the instant he goes after them, they get all pissy. Honestly, though I like Jameses sabotage is better. Especially with Hammond. Honestly I think the chandeliers look pretty good on that one car that Jeremy is driving.
Apologies for reuploading again, if it's removed again, I won't reupload it
next time get the link for The Grand Tour to not get strike ! 😂😂🤣🤣 and how many times u gonna edit the same clip over and over jee for fuck sake
@richarddiditall I read that in Jeremy's voice
is it just me or anyone also noticed that through the years these two slowly turned james may from a civilized person into a total savage 😂
I think the Crosley might have turned turned him into one
It's called acting sir.
@@Jusuffit would have done me too, car like that shouldnt exist
This is a totally sick car my friend
@@giyuken7216 yeah, until you have to drive 500km with it on a motorway
The brake bell was funny, the indicating horn was hilarious, then the bagpipes came and absolutely slayed me
Feels a little much
Feels like he was just a real ass on the trip out of spite for his own shitty car which he chose
he's driving a band of random instruments
IMO indicator horn and brake bell should be legally required on every single car :D
James May really gave a whole new definition to "Wait theres more!"
This was by far the best episode they've done, it had so much old top gear adventure energy to it, I laughed my ass off
That is what I have been saying as well, and I absolutely agree with you this special is so good and funny! I think I have watched this special 3 times already and it has made me consistently laugh my head off each time. Also James’ pranks this time around were hilarious
Actually those candelabras really complement Jeremy's car quite well
Love how James turns the Jeremy's car into "Escape from New York" machine...he knows his John Carpenter!

The tyre removal bit was the icing becuz the lug nuts are still on the bearings 💀
James absolutely knows how to do that himself. He would have had some help from the crew but I know he loves that stuff.

Hammond's genius is comical.
Jeremy's genius is frightening.
James's genius is one of the 7 layers of hell.
Copyright's genius is downright awful.
'James' genius is one of the 7 layers of hell.' is the greatest line ever written in a comment section.👍👍
it's scripted and done by off screen experts!! what are you talking about
no fucking shit sherlock, it was a joke.... @@bobtudbury8505
@@ameychandane7225it's definitely in the top dozen Top Gear/Grand Tour quotes.
@@bobtudbury8505its a joke mate
"Oh god you wired my horn into my indicator you bastard!"
Captain Slow being beyond savage in his revenge on St Jeremy and Hammond.......
Be wary of the quiet man. His talent if patience. James has that, and his revenge was beautiful
"Iam impotent"
"James you are sick"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
One of the best specials in years. Boys were having proper -top gear era- fun
This was savage. Well done James. That why he's my favorite.

- Richard the ‘Angry’ Hamster, 2023
Okay -- I'm guessing the "Jersey cowhide upholstering" wasn't included because Clarkson said he actually liked it --suited the lunacy of the Mitsuoka design perfectly.
It looked more like dalmatian-fur, which Jeremy pointed out fit with the car's Cruella vibe.
The candelabras is a chef's kiss as well
The ssr wheels painted green aint my cup of tea though.
I'm honestly shocked Hammond and Clarcson has not learned by now that May HAPPILY takes apart and puts things back together. they should have learned this during TOPGEAR!
last scene with wheel which fell into the water. The guys looked worried, but I have good news. usually an inflated tyre doesn't sink.
So he retrieved it without drowning or falling into the water????
@@Arfan7891Knowing Jeremy, he could be at least wet due to his manual labour allergy.

Not wanting kids isn't exactly a sign of impotence

The chandeliers work so well on clarksons car, honestly looks better
Jame may is some what a villain that gradually burse out once provoke.
This episode was awesome, i love it, watched it twice.
Some people haven't seen it yet. I have seen the episode so all good with me. Absolutely the best episode yet. I was laughing so loud I think my neighbours must have thought I'd lost my mind.
Could you post your Amazon account details so we can all watch it then?
@@MLB9000 I could but it only works on my tv.
@@MLB9000just get an account your poor man
Eurocrash was great! Last 2 have both been epic. My only fear is theyre gonna announce retirement of it soon.
only one more left unfortunately
I hope they make it as epic as possible
Hope it's the end with the big fireball
I hope it ends with a bang
One sabotage to another good to see May getting his revenge after all these years
James May has truly outdone himself this time 😂😂
Wow 😊 lake Bled... 4:00, so many times have I been rowing in those little boats there, it is so wonderful 😁
1:08 the music as clarkson's car comes into view is excellent, what is it?
Im glad the Slovakian guy understood hungarian language
It’s not Slovakian that’s being spoken
@@stewartgrindlay9760 who said he spoke Slovakian???
James was unbelievable in this special, but I get the impression it was only about 20% of what he's truly capable of
I've never seen anyone do Hammond saying "leave it" and that is a compilation I'd quite like to see
I laughed so hard at may's clever sabotage hamster and jezza
The show of my life :)
1:21 look at that he’s got chandelier lights on the front end of the car
James may has outdone himself this time
Absolutely loved it and I've since started searching for a Crosley (seriously I have)
You need therapy
Just stay the hell off the motorway 😂
2:05 look hammonds car is into the different sound effects
James' pranks is what happens when you piss off someone who actually knows about cars and electrics
The music as Jeremy's car homed into view was priceless. 🤣
Pure ******* class from James!!! Love the boyz!! ROFLMAO!!
Cause of Eurocrash: sabotage caused by three blokes

“DON’T!!! NO, DON’T, DON’T ‘CAUSE I CAN’T HOLD IT THAT ANGLE…”
**drops wheel into water purposely**
- *Richard the ‘Calamity’ Hamster, 2023*
James May has massively improved the Chevrolet SSR with quality of life safety features.
This should’ve been done with the Rover James from Top Gear.
I like how they left out the cow hide sabotage that he did to Jeremy's car because Jeremy actually liked it.
James May is the Master of Sabotage
James May, evil genius.
James May gave a whole new definition to "Wait theres more!"
3:00 impotens vagyok :D :D :D anyway just as a side note: it's in Hungarian, not Slovakian.
Not sure how the guy understood it, but watching it as a Hungarian, it was very hilarious :D
@@szogyenyi Because many of the Slovakian citizens speak Hungarian. ;)
Thanks... i listened to that like 50 times and couldnt figure that out what the hell was that :D
Hungary is on the southern border of Slovakia. The languages are semi familiar so can guess what it is.
It’s like Ye Olde English. “Be thy fair maiden” you know what I’m saying roughly
@@stewartgrindlay9760 those 2 languages are not close to each other at all. Don't write bullshits without knowledge.

Well done James.
May is just plain *vicious* with his sabotages. And they are side-splitting every time.
Forgotten the custom interior job that James did on Jeremy's SSK
Clarkson actually liked it
James May be like: “They’ve been laughing since I can remember, but they’re not gonna laugh anymore.”
Beware the anger of a quiet man.
LMAO Who knew James was such a clever bastard.
Anyone who knows why he was fired from Autocar Magazine
Nigel Mansell sitting beside Jeremy 😂😂😂😂
I want a compilation of options lists. Please include the one where jeremy says 'you'd need a flappy paddle head'.
James May is a genius, look up why he got fired from Autocar magazine and you’ll see evidence of it.
The best one yet, very funny all the way through.
Tell me if I'm wrong but has there been a compilation of fifth gear references on top gear
Good Job Mr May - best revenge plan on Clarkson and Hammond - 🤣😎😈
James May is a genius for these sabotages 😂
😂 three big kids having good fun. ❤😊
That ending was epic! :D
2:07 "Aaaaaaaayyyyaaaaaaayyyyyyaaaaaaayyyyyyyaaaayyyyyyyyaaaaaaayyyyyyy!"
Lake Bled is one of the most beautiful places on God's green Earth. ❤️ 🇸🇮
James is one lab accident from being a super villain
The most extensive audio-modding they have done yet.
James May is an evil genius. 🙂
i got to say well done james
I laughed so hard during the first part.
LOL. This is the most I've seen James doing through all does many years. WELL DONE PAYBACK FOR AFRICA!!!.
Just had an idea but, a compilation about various commercial the trio has done can be a good video idea.
these boys are hilarious 😂😂😂😂
James may. Your a cad n brilliant.😂😂
‘Hammond, you blithering idiot!’
what does impotent mean? I don't get the joke at 3:05
a man who can't get a boner/ erection
James woke up and chose violence.
You need to do a compilation of the presenters describing a challenge from the cards in the envelopes given by the producers. Because you have not done that at all.
It's just likes The Duke's car in Escape From New York (1:14)
He's A Number One!
savage James May, LMAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Need a “so called” compilation, please
Was anyone able to decipher what Hammond's car actually says? I'm czech (basically same language as slovakian) and I really dont understand it xD
2:00 pacific drive car qurks be like:
Hammond can dish it out, but he can't take it.
Hammond has children, so the "I'm impotent" thing doesn't really fly.
❤❤❤
James is starting to look like chinese santa
I love the double standard here. When they screw with James, it’s funny. But the instant he goes after them, they get all pissy.
Honestly, though I like Jameses sabotage is better. Especially with Hammond. Honestly I think the chandeliers look pretty good on that one car that Jeremy is driving.
the wheel sank?
3:08 Its hungarian
Personally I would have take all the tires and put them on like four different boats spread out across the lake
1:09 what music is this?
Those lamps make an Excalibur less ugly
Hammond's truck got me real good hahahahahaha.
Crikey, James got old and grey/white. But it kinda suits him.
The car wheels in a boat is just too funny 🤣😆😅 and Hammond drops the wheel in the wather lol is just having a real bad day 🤣😂😆😅
Did he retrieve the wheel from the water????
The difference between the old Top Gear and the new Top Gear
Nobody does sabotage like these guys do 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
