Uhhhh, no, he's not. Speed has absolutely killed people before. When scientists were just learning about/able to reach sound barrier breaking speeds, they wanted to know what it would do to a person, so they made a ___ mile, dead straight, rail track in a desert somewhere in the midwestern US, and made a metal chair that essentially had rocket boosters bolted onto the back of it. They then, _somehow_ , found a volunteer to sit in the chair as it was rocketed past the sound barrier in order to figure out what that kind of speed did to a person. I can't remember if he died on the first go, or if it was the second one, but it blew out his eardrums, his eyeballs, and there were some other injuries of course as well, but the gist of it is that one of those tests killed him. It wasn't from slowing down suddenly in his case either, it was literally from the effects of the chair just being completely exposed with no windscreen or anything to divert the wind, so his body was bearing the full aerodynamic effects of what the metal body/frame of most _jet fighters_ usually take. Pretty crazy how fucked up/stupid we used to be as a people to think that was going to end well in any way for the volunteer. I'm sure there are other examples, but I don't know of those off the top of my head. Once you remember how powerful the physics of air pressure is at high speeds, it becomes very easy to understand that there are clearly plenty of ways for outright speed itself to kill someone.
There's another one from two Danish comedians parodying the former friday afternoon "Traffic Radio" from the 80s: "The longer time you stay on the road, the bigger the risk of a crash, so it's safest to get from A to B as fast as possible as you stay much less time on the road".
Simple answer::... woke lefty and lefty--liberal censoring muppets. Had I my way, I'd bring back all the 70s and 80s sitcoms and comedy/dramas for two reasons, 1)most of them were brilliant. 2)to really, and I DO MEAN REALLY piss off the wokes!!!!!!!!!!!
8:06. The thing is, technically movement through air and water are both governed by fluid dynamics, they are essentially the same thing. Something that goes through water easily will go through air easily. Also, look for a video of penguins moving through water. They "fly" through water....
BAD NEWS! I once actually saw two Mercedes Bionic cars in my town. Some fish tank loving scoundrel who was my art teacher in my high school once owned a blue one but she somehow has had an accident in it. My engineering teacher purchased one as well but little did I know is that he sold it for a Citroen C4 after being made fun of it twice.
"do you take exercise?" Is exercise some sort of pill, I thought it was something you DO, not something you TAKE. "what`s your plan for the day?" Well first I`m going to do a shower, then I`m constructing a cup of tea after I take my exercise..

Top Gears replacement show (and its name currently escapes me.!) was a poor replacement of the original.! TOP GEAR (WAS) the best motoring show EVER.! (Until it went silly, chasing a broader audience and ended up losing its way.! Thanks to the BBC.!)
Yeah the Boxer and porsche are ugly looking things.. Even if i were a billionaire i'd never buy one.. Would not sit in one either a bit like a BMW also. If i had to go from one end of the country and all i had was a BMW, then i'd rather walk.. They are driven mostly by idiots and look like bricks. Oh and they're vastly over priced heaps of crap.
probably also because people in malaysa earn on average 13k GBP per year and in the UK is roughly 34k GBP. Your car prices are cheaper in malaysia because you're poor and selling them for 7k GBP nobody would be able to buy them.
Top Gear with these 3 will always have a special place in my heart.

“Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming Stationary, that’s what gets you”
Interesting thing is, Jeremy is right.

Why don't we have tv like this anymore?
cause nothing is good now. everything used to be better. except for medicine and safety
Because everyone is offended by this kind of comedy and they’d get cancelled after the first season.

From the road map section, I can confirm going through Eccleshall away from the speed cameras is indeed faster 😂😂
Someone should stream all episodes of Top Gear (2002-2015) and The Grand Tour for showing respect

Well, he's yet to have his mid-life crisis at the time...

9:02 is this the first car to have what we now know to be AdBlue?
Yes or three correct none is diesel exhaust fluid, peugeot did it I mi 2000s too (eolys fluid) adblue is actually abrand name
@@keithavian8129Eolys fluid is injected into the diesel fuel not the exhaust.
It’s pig wee. Specifically 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water.
I respect the woman defending Hammond 14:09

And that wee wee is called adblue now.

You can put him in your hand bag!!
Hands free is dangerous
₽304,000 for a pagani they are going for twice that now jeez!
It's now called Adblue.
Just like Dr Who will always be Tom Baker & Jon Pertwee, Top Gear is always only Clarkson, May & Hammond!
Yes!

Mercedes invented DEF fluid?!?
you know what? The fish car, I'll have it. It's butt-ugly, but it's kinda cute.
