The commentary by our greatest comedian 😂
When off track: “My lawn, there goes my lawn”
Spectacular crash: “BEAUTIFUL !!!!”
M'N GRAS M'N GRAS!! We still yell that when someone is ruining the lawn, lol
So funny
Hilarisch. Pmsl
Dat was het commentaar van meneer Vreugdevol en tuinman Gerard Pol in de Grond.🤪
Bit of nostalgia - but it was seriously funny stuff, Andre was the best commentator
Precies
m'n gras!!
Best games ever!
The guy reacting is one of our finest Dutch comedians! André van Duin. A person with a multitude of funny persona's
"Me grass" never gets old!
I was surging for his coments,,
Epic
Ah, childhood memories.
Saterday evening, showered and clean, hair still wet sitting on the couch with the family and a bowl of potato chips on my lap ( the only day in the week allowed to have chips).
Watching this sensational programm on one of the only two dutch channels we could receive at that time.
Those where the days.
Dang, I feel old right now.
Je bent niet de enige 😬.
Ik ook. Them Good Old Days.
Ik wist niet dat zoiets als dit er was. Ik ken natuurlijk wel ter land ter zee en in de lucht, maar dat was toch dat er een schans ofzo was en dat de bel geraakt moest worden? Was het in de jaren 80 anders?
@@tieman3790 Te Land Ter Zee en in De lucht bestond door de jaren heen uit enorm veel onderdelen, met Tobbedansen als langstlopende onderdeel. Fiets 'm 'r in, Hoog en Droog, Gein op het Plein, Uitpakken en Wegwezen, zijn in de loop der jaren eveneens onderdelen geweest die ontstonden of ook al lang onderdeel waren van het programma.
'Blij dat ik Glij' was het enige onderdeel dat niet in Nederland gehouden werd, wegens gebrek aan bergen. In dat onderdeel moesten zelfgebouwde voertuigen van een besneeuwde helling naar beneden (uiteraard in de snelste tijd).
De versie uit 1995 geloof ik staat bekend als de aflevering met de spectaculairste (en gevaarlijkste) valpartij uit de geschiedenis van het programma, waardoor de opnames zelfs een dag uitliepen omdat het té gevaarlijk werd.
Tot net in de jaren '90 geloof ik was Achteruitrijden nog een onderdeel van TLTZEIDL, daarna stopte dat, waarschijnlijk vooral bij gebrek aan DAFjes ;) al zal er verzekeringstechnisch ook wel steeds minder mogelijk geweest zijn: dat was immers ook de reden dat het hele programma in 2014 of 2015 uiteindelijk voorgoed stopte.
Because the system does not have separate gears, but one (continuously shifting) gear and a separate 'reverse mode' (as opposed to reverse gear), the transmission works in reverse as well, giving it the interesting side effect that one can drive back as fast as forwards. As a result, in the former Dutch annual backward driving world championship, the DAFs had to be put in a separate competition because no other car could keep up. Thus, these very cheap and simple cars were the 'formula one' in this competition.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variomatic
In those days it was the perfect solution to get all these dodgy DAFs of the highway. Same for unsecure caravans.
yep, and driving backwards at higher speeds make very slight steering movements much more dramatic.
Its hard to do it.
How is an American cheating?
However.. there were a few clever guys that flipped the rear axle making the forward gears run the car in reverse.
The old DAF's had a CVT transmission and a 1:1 reverse gear to the transmission making it as fast in reverse as going forward.
@@FlexDRG However.. there were a few clever guys that flipped the rear axle making the forward gears run the car in reverse. Was looking for that Beetle that did that.....
it is a CVT without limiter for reverse and was the first CVT to be in a highly produced. Continously Variable Transmission
This is so funny to see, SUPER.
But the other variants
*TE LAND, TER ZEE EN
IN DE LUCHT*
are also FUNNY.
People go with their own made, CARS, BOATS, and crazy stuff from a SLOPE down and they often end up in the WATER.
Or cycle with a BIKE over a NARROW BEAM as far as possible
And ANDRE VAN DUYN is our biggest COMEDIAN in the Netherlands.
Thank You THIS WAS 🆒✌️
Greatest game show ever , tons of fun with low budget contraptions.
PS the dutch Car DAF was as fast backwards as forward due to its variomatic , it could do 100km/hr backwards .
Nowadays it is a joy to see one still on the road. Very rare as in this show a lot of them were wrecked..
@@cynthiamolenaar770 Treu , 15 years ago you could buy them for 400 to 800 Euros as 3 pack to restore projects . If you want one now your near and around the 10K mark.
Years ago there was one featured on clasic car hunter , and on Die Ludolfs of discovery .
And considering the variomatic has also the perk of beeing more economic . ( depending on the set up)Some where converted to electric cars , and succesfull as well. AS the variomatic provides the ideal tork to speed ratio . on all speeds.
It couldn't. It can only go 80km/h period.
But the reason they are so hard to control going backwards is because car wheels aren't completely parallel, they are slightly convergent which helps them stay straight. When you make a turn with a car you feel a natural inclination for the wheels to return to center. Often you don't even have to turn the wheel back, it will turn on it's own.
Going backwards this is reversed. So instead of the car wanting to go straight it absolutely doesn't want to go straight and you have to balance it as any movement is amplified.
Ah yes, when Dutch tv shows valued fun over safety. I love Ter Land Ter Zee en in de Lucht
This was my childhood back then it was so mutch fun to watch as a kid great to see again
Oh man! This show was hilarious! All made for fun and laughter. The series were so popular that they ran for ages! The commentators you talked about is just one man, André van Duin, who played two roles. The commentator and his “guest” the fictitious groundsman of this circuit (made up by André of course). And every time a car ran off track the “groundsman” cries: “My grass, my grass, they’re ruining my grass!” Needless to say that next day every one who saw the show and had a similar situation started crying out the same way. It became a household “saying” in those days. Great fun 🤩! I thought my might find this fact funny.
I loved this show
It’s an oldy but a goodie 😂
the cars of the first clip were DAF, a dutch car brand. they had a special CVT gearbox making them able to go just as fast in reverse as they could go forwards. so going 60mph in reverse is pretty hard to handle so that's why they're spinning out all over the place XD
I love it when you upload a Dutch Reacting Video👌😂🇳🇱
I remember watching Ter land ter zee en in de lucht with the whole family. Fun times.
It is impossible to drive backwards in a straight line. The suspension geometry is designed to go forward stably, but it gets unstable driving backwards. Look at the wheels of your supermarket kart.
Just look at the amount of crashes at normal races. Cars driven by experienced drivers driving forward. What else do you expect when average Joe's try racing backwards
@@justincase490 Well, lots of crashes of course!😁
Those cars could go real fast in reverse but when doing that, were so unstable that even the slightest steering input would have a runaway effect. Chaos theory.
Needless to say ... those cars are pretty rare nowadays.
The programme 'Te land, ter zee en in de lucht' (meaning 'On land, at sea, and in the air') has run from 1971 to 2008, so they don't do this anymore. Probably partially due to safety concerns, lol. Each time they had different events with different (self-built) 'vehicles'. These car races I haven't seen in my youth (90s) so those were probably already discontinued by then due to safety concerns. I mostly remember the ones where they had to drive their self-made 'bicycle' over a line in the water and had to ring a bell, or others like that. And the versions that were made in the 00s were already much safer than those that were made in the 90s haha.
Only the water games runs so long. The snow and track version are both cancelled after a few seasons.
Most of those cars are from the brand DAF, the first car with CVT (an other Dutch invention). Those cars are backwards as fast as driving forwards.
Jarretel aandrijving🤣
Lol :D The version where contestants slide home built contraptions from a greased ramp into the water and (hopefully) ring a bell to complete their race is named 'Tobbedansen'.
The song that's played is 'pick up the pieces' by The Average White Band.
Definitely intentionally ludicrous, both on track and in the commentary box. Loved it. What a great nostalgia trip!
The more rolls the better. We used to watch this with the whole family. SO funny. Especially with the comments of André van Duin, our best Dutch comedian.
ter land ter zee en in de lucht achteruitrijden =
ter land = on land.
ter zee = at sea .
en in de lucht = and in the air .
achteruitrijden = drive backwards
Ter land ter zee in de lucht that is the fun of the show
The cars in the beginning could drive as fast backwards as forwards, hence the swerving XD
@2:50 he says: this is the man that will give off the starting shot....and in the (unlikely) case any of them finishes he also gets to wave the flag
😂😂😂 Andre van Duin's commentary is hilarious.
Ter land ter zee en in de lucht is so chaotic it feels like a bunch of drunk guys went "you know what would be a bad idea?" And then they made a program of it
BAck from the time when 2 channels on TV brought more fun than the hundred now with only shit shit and crap
Finally I've send links from this! Was waiting for this so badly because you reach out to so many people and we may never forget, even better the youth who maybe never saw it before 💪💪
Great when Andre was talking about a pinball machine xD
Can you imagine that it went to serious? Some people build special cars with reversed engine/gearbox so they could really go fast in “reverse”, also some bought very small caravans and made as light as possible and put them behind a big fat Porsche or tuned race car. Then the fun went away. Btw this circuit was used this year again as a F1 circuit.
I think you had to mount the gearbox backwards in the DAF cars. But that was an easy fix.
@@arjankleene You could also flip the differential in the Beetle gearbox and have 4 gears in reverse, lol!
@@arjankleene No need to do that in the DAF with it's 'pientere pookje'.
Another fun fact. The dafs where powerd with a CVT gearbox (continuously variable transmission aka variomatic) This has like first and sixth gear of a normal car and everything in between. Its kind a cool how it works. there are a lot of videos that explain how it works. Whet you put the car in reverse this whole system works in reverse so you would have "6 gears" in reverse. So thit is the reason why the could drive mad speeds in reverse. But they where the first popular automatic car on the dutch market. mosty bought by people without enough braincells the steer and shift gears at the same time, And women. this is why there where called: "truttenschudder met jarretelaandrijving" translated to: "b*tch shaker with garter propulsion"
ter Land = by land
ter Zee = by Sea
en in de Lucht = and by Air
Achteruitrijden = Drive backwards / Drive in reverse.
The TV-program was called "Ter Land Ter Zee En In De Lucht" and was popular for many years.
It started with these kind of races, on the national race-circuit in Zandvoort, and was broadcast on TV.
The preferred car for driving backwards was the DAF, our only Dutch car, with an inventive automatic transmission.
The DAF had a variabel gearing, called Variomatic. It meant that you could drive in reverse as fast as forward.
Later the programme became different but kept the same name:
All kinds of handicap trails were set up in a harbour in a town in the Netherlands. A different town for each episode.
The handicap trails were very varied, and those are the ones that were requested, I guess.
People made all kind of vehicles to conquer these challenges. Very entertaining.
Thanks for your reactions.
Back when watching public broadcasting channels was still fun. Decades ago....
It went straight through the concrete without losing pace - Now thats american built for ya.
I love how even the dutch cars hardly dent after backing up into a pole
Back in the 7-ties and 80-ties, these were called "wrack races". A lot of fun, but sooo many got hurt, for sometimes 7 drunk idiots were on the roof and front of the cars. I am not lying, I was a child, I remember it like a lucid dream.
The same model cars driving in reverse gear were known to drive faster in reverse than forward. Al other cars driving in reverse are called the specials.
You got to love the Dutch 🤣
1:53
That's because you have the center of gravity of the car in front of the steering wheels. normally it's behind the steering wheels and so the car wants to go straight. You can easily feel this when you're driving cause if you turn and then let go of the steering wheel the car corrects back to going straight. When going in reverse though this is also reversed and the car wants to do anything but go straight. Any sideways movement no matter how slight is amplified by the momentum of the car and you have to overcome that to keep it straight.
You can often see just how difficult it is to correct any mistakes.
10:00
There is something more to that. Those are DAF 60's which is the only natively made Dutch car to see much success. It had a unique variable transmission system which meant it could go forwards and backwards at equal speed. So the DAF 60 can go over 60km/h backwards.
So glad I lived to enjoy the 1970's and 1980's. The things we did....All forbidden now. Great upload! Memory lane.
When we had freedom, fun, without to much rules!!
I laughed so hard l got a stomachach now 🤣🤣. This was something from my youth. Love it👍👍
This was top-entertainment on dutch tv in the early 80's!!!!
Unfortunately, it was discontinued, but it fits in the "dutch traditions" series....
Dit you know that the most cars you see there are a DAF. They invented the variomatic . They don't make cars anymore , only trucks.
It was some years ago watching this. It made me laugh so hard i had tears rolling down. Nice! Thank you.
If you could understand what the commentator was saying you'd cry with laughter. The man is a genius.
*The cars they used for backwards driving are all DAF. They can reach the same speed when you drive in reverse, and weren't very stable. One wrong move and will flip over.
Because of this tv show the Daf cars became really rare , You can hardly find one these day's .
The reason these cars flip is because of the gearbox which they call a “variomatic gearbox”.
Volvo once bought a DAF license to produce the DAF model under their own name as a Volvo 66 and they to have this belt on tapered drum gearbox.
The ratio is changed by the with of the split inward tapered drum which is changing the position of the belt to more in or outward of the center of the split drum.
These cars with the variable belt gears drive as fast backward as forward and become very unstable at those high speeds backwards because you drive like a forklift with the steering in the back very for easy tight turning.
And easy turning going full out backwards makes you easily overcorrect and possibly flip over on your side or crash into each other.
The CVT system was invented by DAF, when they went bankrupt they sold the system to Toyota who is still using it in all their hybrid cars.
The videos you were looking for are called TOBBEDANSEN where. People build all kinds of vehicles and go down a ramp..
The cars are DAFs. Small, lightweight cars with the first variable transmission in the world. They go backwards as fast as they do forward. So speeds are quite high and the cars have a very short wheelbase. High speed, short wheelbase, try to hold it straight going backwards.
Fun from decades ago. I must have seen them all back then.
There was a Dutch car, a DAF, that could ride backwards at the same speed as it could go forward.
These cars are small with a narrow wheelbase. The slightest fault and you crash when you’re at speed.
Oost of these cars are Dutch cars from probably before the 80s from the brand Daf. Nowadays Daf only makes big trucks and these are the most populair trucks in Europe and some other places in the word.
But these old Daf cars are really fun for this race since they are automatic gear which was quite rare in Europe in that time and also this car can go just as fast backwards as they can drive forwards. They are nothing special with speed but it's still really fast backwards. That's why it is so much fun to have this race like that
1:30
Actually that is because the front wheels of a car are not exactly parallel, they and slightly convergent. This pushes them straight which is why if you turn and then let go of the steering wheel it will automatically return to it's former position. Going backwards though this goes into reverse and rather than resisting turns the now divergent wheels amplify any slight turn that is made.
Driving a car upside down is kind of like an upside-down pendulem where and movement can very easily make it spiral out of control. So really learning to drive backwards at over 40km/h is very difficult.
Also normally the weight of the car is behind the pivot point so it's forward momentum fights against any change in direction. When going backwards though this is reversed and the forward momentum of the car exagerated any change in direction.
Oh i loved this so much
@13:31 Sounds like something I saw, but they didn't drive as fast to topple over, and the goal was to use the ramp to get onto 2 wheels, and then ride as long a distance as possible on two wheels. Might even have been Ter Land Ter Zee en in de Lucht, beside the evergreens, they sometimes also had trial competitions that only lasted one or a few seasons. It was quite a long running show
yes the driving on 2 wheels was also from ter land ter zee en in de lucht
My dad had a 1/2 years work only by re-buillding fore this tv programme whilst i would think of a new challenge. On land, on see or in the air. That was the question
5:09 the guy camera man needed to run for his life 😳
Fun fact: Those cars called Daf's have engine's that can go as fast forwards as they can go backwards
It took me a while scrolling but I am glad someone mentioned the Daf.
Let me add, the reason they could was their unique transmission called the "Variomatic" or " continuously variable transmission ", A stepless automatic transmission type with a v shaped drivebelt.
I miss it - destruction derby - welcome to the unireverse
they made it a point to cross the finish line craching at the last race
If you go fast backward in a car (and these little DAF's go as fast backward as forward...) the geometry of the suspension works against you and makes it very unstable. (and here they use that for fun...)
Aside from the steering geometry being wrong, there's also the weight of the engine with the steering at the rear. It pivots around the front when turning, so when you turn too fast, the momentum of the engine whips it around. The shitty suspension collapses on that side, the tires give way and it rolls.
Good points!
Dutch demolition derby, love it !
Haha the original Zandvoort GP
11:40 Correction: Announcer: its Andre van Duin, a dutch comedian who is known for his different types of persona. He was the same who yelt M'n(Mijn) Gras(My Grass).
Thank you!
"Ziet er uit als een flipperkast, weet je wel, flipperen"
Texan: "They talking about flippin' a lot"
Me: "Well, actually, ummm...he was talking about a pinball machine..."
FYI: I am Dutch/English bilingual.
@1:25 try driving backwards at the highest speed you can go and make a little steering movement, see what happens. Because your wheels are now steering from the "rear" instead of the front, steering becomes very sensitive at higher speeds, that's why so many of them crash, it's difficult to control the car, and they are all driving backwards with their bodies facing the other way around, and if you turn back while driving it's difficult to keep driving in a straight line.
Environment, emissions, noise, nature, safety? None of it, gee I just loved that era!
The Maine reason was to have fun,but u want to win the race🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
okay, let me explain the swerving. This has to do whit how the self centering effect of the steering of a car works. So I will explain this first. The axis of rotation of the front wheel is not perfectly vertical but at a slight angle backwards. (This is called "caster" if you ask your wheel alignment guy). What this does is making the contact patch of the tire and the road behind the axis of rotation. this will pull the wheels slightly backward just like the caster wheels on a shopping cart. When reversing this effect is the opposite. So even a slight turn on the steering wheel and the force created by the friction will pull the wheel to full lock in a second. Many old cars didn't have power steering so this will make the effect even worse. This all combined with the fact that indeed many companions drove like their dads with with one hand on the wheel and one behind the passenger seat things get out control really fast.
Ah good point about caster. I only know a little bit about it...like using shims to adjust caster when lifting a 4x4 truck.
4:50
When going backwards that's a big handicap. Normally the weight of the car helps stabilize it but when going backwards it does the opposite and it throws it off balance even further. If that heavy American car starts to swerve it's pretty much impossible to recover as there is way too much momentum throwing it off.
Simple times. Today's Dutch gift to the world is Big Brother and Dancing with Stars, masks, or on ice. Sorry for that.
At 3.00 you asked: What was that about? The guy said, and I quote "Lets introduce you to some people behind the screens, that is the man named Martin Barrel, which is the man that shoots the gun to start, and if one of the participants would reach the end, he is also the one to flag them" xD
this car is called DAF and gos just as fast forward as back. i am from holland
OMG! think I hurt myself laughing!!!! That's the most hilarious thing I've seen in years... mud bogs? monster trucks? They ain't got nuthin' on these crazy bastards!!🤣😆 Just remember.. Safety Fourth!😂👍
The small reversing car class are daf cars. They have a variomatic gearbox. So it can go as fast reverse as forwards. The mixed class are normal gearboxes so that is why they have way lower speed
The tv show doesn't do these events anymore, but some small local groups still hold races like this. A little bit of context for all the events that you saw in this video is that it was a race to get the fastest time, and the events with a caravan also had to try to keep the caravan in tact as much as possible, so you could not just destroy the caravan and win the race because of less drag.
This was top entertainment back in the day, now we have "reality" shows.
It indeed was purpousely rediculous, it was about having fun, winning was mostly an afterthought, lol!
How they now say: if i treated those cars better, those cars should be worth much more. I saw a CV2, right here its over 10.000 euro's. But great entertaiment on tv
some parts are clearly at zandvoort which is now an Formula 1 track again
These were also called 'Trutten-schudder' aka 'Bitch-shaker or Karen-shaker' usually elderly women drove them
Please show us more video's like this!
Our traditions, they disappear....
The racing track in the oldest footage is the Zandvoort circuit where the Dutch F1 GP was this september
Bangers ramp rollover
That are daf's. This cars are as fast going backwards as forwards. They roll over so fast, because the speeds are high, so a little bit to much steering and they rolled over. Throughout the years, it got more and more extreme. They let more other cars join, because it became harder to get the daf. They changed the gear box, so the other cars also went hard backwards.
One hand on the steering wheel and one on the passenger seat is how you must do it. In the USA you get your driving license as you don't hit anything, but in the Netherlands it isn't that easy.
The difficulty with both driving backwards and the caravan race is that it absolutely wrecks driving/steering characteristics with cars which in this case didn't handle greatly anyways. Most cars used had high mileage so could get malfunctions on various parts anyway. These races are the polar opposite of formula built cars like F1 or IndyCar, where track handling is way better than normal road cars. Try racing a car backwards on a closed road or circuit and experience how difficult it handles. Rear wheel steering is very good for parking but a recipe for disaster when going fast. Nice to see the DAF 66's transmission being mentioned. They were made in the city I live in and the factory still runs today under a different name.
this cars go as fast in reverse as normel its hard to control
6.20 I saw this happen on the German highway once. Some idiot driving far too fast and there they went. Ever saw an angry wife getting out of a car? THAT guy's wife was ANGRY!!
Ter land ter zee en in de lucht was a combination of a lot of different shows with different subjects some of the subjects were put together in the same show I still remember most of these names but not all. source Wikipedia: Achteruitrijden

Some candidates drives 70/75 mph. Inmaging
This would be impossible these days, safety is way to much an issue.
Correct there are also more reasons.
Technical lots of DAF cars were then supercheap because of their bad image and got wrecked at the races they are now superrare.
Enviromental lunatics would EXPLODE from anger just look what happend at the TT and F1 to get it banned.
Also i think there are fewer people now who have the balls to drive in such a wacky race.
I also doubt that it would be technically possible. The way cars are built now with sensors everywhere and safety built in, a lot of modern cars would probably just shut down to prevent further damage. Back then you just had simple cars. As long as the car had wheels and the engine got fuel it kept running and driving.
Hahahahahahaha, mijn gras, mijn gras, ledendarisch!!!
Sir, using an American car is not cheating, on the contrary, it is hard mode. With the caravan race there was just one rule. Your caravan could be completely destroyed but your trailer HAD to be still attached in order to win.
Now that what I call racing at least this is fun don't get me wrong I love nascar and australian supercars but this is fun
8:30 that is/mainly was dutch tv for you
driving fast while reversing is not easy.
