Hammond losing his mind on the mountain switching his voice between Clarkson and May was possibly one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen on the show.
They are, like most lifetime friends, they annoy each other, they take the piss out of each other… but when shit gets real, like an injury, they do care… and when Jeremy was sacked from the BBC, they all walked, because they’re loyal to each other and they love working together. They’re all capable of successful solo careers, and they do have them… but even then, they make comical references to each other… you can bet that if you met one of them in person and decided to bad mouth one of the others, they’d tell you to do one.
The sleeping bag clip at the end: if you watch the first series, you can see the delight of anticipation in Jeremy's face whenever James was about to make a sharp, witty comment. Jeremy wanted James as a co-presenter; it was at his behest, and he had to wait a series to get him. They might pretend to dislike each other for comedic purposes, but Jeremy has a kinship with and an affinity for James.
And that's also why James (and Richard) left when Jeremy was sacked. I'm not saying he shouldn't be, I'm just saying that they knew that Top Gear is just three middle-age guys who have an affinity towards cars. They knew that without Jeremy it wouldn't work, so they left. I'm pretty sure that had the situation been reversed (i.e. either James or Richard got the sack instead of him) Jezza would've left too.
@@adrielsebastian5216 of course. What the BBC seems to not understand is that Top Gear wasn't a car show. It was a show of these three that happened to feature cars
The thing studios don’t understand is it’s not as simple as just getting the blokes to spend more time together, with it eventually happening. Jeremy wanted James for series 1, and fought with execs to keep Hammond on for series 2, in addition to finally bringing on May. There was genuine respect between them even before they grew really close.
Yes this video, especially after 6:12. This is why we love the Top Gear that these blokes were on, and didn't want to watch the second version without them.
I swear to God, May's impression of Jeremy in a sleeping bag makes me crack up. In another video he describes Jeremy as a "blasphemous maggot" once he lays down in his sleeping bag.
My favorite one is Clarkson impersonating May; the fact he just drops his voice to monotone, and somehow becomes twice as British as his impression of James May is just so fucking funny
Who would have thought back in 2002 when the three of them first appeared together that 20 years later they would still be doing a show together and literally millions of people would be watching clips of them from those 20 years. Lol
It says a lot about the three that despite all of their squabbles when jeremy got fired from the bbc richard and may followed him they are genuine friends maybe they do get in real fights and fuss but they all genuinely enjoy working together
"You bought a house on a tight bend, didn't you? And what have you been doing in the last 15 years? Driving around tight bends on television going (imitating Jeremy) 'POWEEERRR!', and then you're surprised when you wake up and there's a Peugeot 106 in your potting shed!" -James May, Top Gear Season 7 Episode 2, 2005.
Best part @3:09 when Richard, stranded on top on a Canadian mountain, makes effigies of Jezza and May out of tree branches and then verbally mocks them. Yes it was another incredibly scripted episode/moment, but still funny as hell.
James doing Clarkson at the end is pure Gold!! Hammond freezing and losing his mind with his log May and Clarkson on the Canadian Mountain top is Priceless!!
3:00 After learning Jeremy had been stopped by the French Constabulary James points at a map of France: Jeremy is at the side of the road about _here_ talking to a Gendarme. And in a few hours he’ll be (points to another place on map) around _here_ in a place called Le Bastille. Richard: chokes on drink as he laughs.
This compilation doesn’t have fav moments for me…all the compilation is my fav XD…anyway have a nice day 😄 Ps: although this is very funny for me 6:13 lol 😂
Dear Mustang150 : Your TopGear compilations are the best. Your editing is tasteful and well done, leaving enough space before and after the moment in question to give it context and meaning. Most other TG compilations cuts are simply awful. Thank you!
oh you forgot the clip where they did some laps somewhere and each narrated each others footage. Like how May impersonated Clarkson "coming round the bend at literally 582mph"
The Vietnam special : Jeremy impersonating jame "oh yes I'll get the tickets i understand public transport i know what I'm doing" James impersonating jeremy "no no im telling you its this way"
Hammond losing his mind on the mountain switching his voice between Clarkson and May was possibly one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen on the show.

Oh god i was crying laughing at that
It's the closing "for eight hours" which finished me.
James nailed “POWER!” and “…in the world” by Clarkson
And “in the bagging area” 🤣🤣🤣
"Bollocks!"
No its is: " ... ... ... ...in the world" ,lol
The majority of the video is James going "POWEEER".
"It's literally the hottest place in the world!"
"This is the last of the V12s, from now on all engines have turbos on them"
James' impression of Jeremy at 3:00 is frighteningly accurate
Oh my god, it is!
Richard’s French accent was also great!
"The bus said guilford on the front and that's where I wanted to go."
This was a brilliant reply.
Sometimes I forget that James, on top of being quite slow, is also absolutely _terrible_ with directions
@@CopiousDoinksLLC He's the guy who got lost trying to get from Heathrow to Hammersmith, so it should come as no surprise.
One of his best moments 😭😂💀 kills me every time
The riposte about wanting to go to Guilford is one of the wittiest self-deprecating comebacks I have ever heard.
The sleeping bag clip at the end: if you watch the first series, you can see the delight of anticipation in Jeremy's face whenever James was about to make a sharp, witty comment.

It is my lifetime goal to have me and two friends as inseparably close as those three.
Plus he fancies his plums
I was the 1.8K like
The last clip was the best, James May sleepy Clarkson had me dying
Yeah I don’t remember seeing that, it was fucking amazing 😂
@@jammeslive4050 I think it was a deleted scene in the India special
The chemistry between all three of them is truly unique.
That's the problem with any show that has to replace people with great chemistry. They think it's easy to replicate.
The thing studios don’t understand is it’s not as simple as just getting the blokes to spend more time together, with it eventually happening.

It's rather
hypergolic.
“Oh mum I’ve just been to the post office they’ve got a new stamp out “ fantastic
We need to acknowledge how good Hammond's skills at throwing a knife are.
*"IN THE COCK! HA!"*
In the cock!
ysees
00:15 this is the most concise "poweeeer" ever
He didn’t want to say speed, so he just said power really fast.
I like a compilation where Clarkson predicts what others would say
"Buffeting"
The one from the cheap supercar episode when Clarkson and May predicted (correctly) that Hammond would say "misfire".
@@adrielsebastian5216 also from the GT beach buggy episode. misfire😂
I'll admit it's funny, however, that happens because it's scripted.
James May’s POWER impersonation will always be the best
Hammond making mocking impressions of Clarkson and May whilst freezing on a mountaintop will always stay with me 🤣
Which season/episode?
@@MohammadAlmhbshiSeries 22 Canada mini special
I love how when Jeremy does James' voice he goes deeper even though Jeremy's natural voice is already deeper than James'.
Not only that, but he plays May's accent as much posher then his own, when Jezza clearly has the posher voice.
6:24 The best sound I've ever heard.
You left out Jeremy’s impression of James saying “Hello”
Best of all
That’s a whole video in itself
@@chrisgreen3324 “oh hello mum I’ve just been to the post office and they’ve got a new stamp out”
@@chrisgreen3324"he would've walked into a dealership, "hello", and they would have shot him"

4:24 Hammond his evil laugh kills me 🤣🤣
Yes this video, especially after 6:12. This is why we love the Top Gear that these blokes were on, and didn't want to watch the second version without them.

James preparing the Jeremy impersonation face at 0:57 is priceless and underappreciated
"They've demolished the terminal" always cracks me up
All the clips are great, but May’s impression of Clarkson at 0:38 is for me the best
4:00 No one ever talks about James’ GENIUS
Not as frightening as Jeremy's.
@@ps2bndled I honestly believe, that my genius... It generates gravity.
~Jeremy Clarkson
@@ps2bndled May has the best comebacks.
@@Bpg5012trick a crushing criticism, from one so handsome
Just having the 3 of them sit around a bonfire talking rubbish is entertaining.
So true and I'm a woman, cracks me up all the time, wish they were still on TV, probably the only thing I ever watched:-)
I swear to God, May's impression of Jeremy in a sleeping bag makes me crack up. In another video he describes Jeremy as a "blasphemous maggot" once he lays down in his sleeping bag.
5:12, I would love it if self serve checkouts said bollocks whenever a card gets declined
Yes!! You’re so right dude!!
The chemistry between these three is a thing of beauty. I could watch them all day and love the deleted footage but there's never enough of it
Jeremy and James have totally mastered each other's personalities. 2:52 is the one I was waiting for. 😂
Clarkson imitating May is the best
Poweeeer! lol
@@o_o-_-8639 That’s May imitating Clarkson.
Agreed 😎👍
@@shriharihudli yh ik but it was funny how he said every time poweeer! lol
Hello
May's impersonation of Clarkson is legendary
My favorite one is Clarkson impersonating May; the fact he just drops his voice to monotone, and somehow becomes twice as British as his impression of James May is just so fucking funny
“Oh I’m going along”
Jezza impersonating Hammond: extremely strong Brummie accent
Jezza impersonating May: absurdly posh voice
May impersonating Jezza: POWERRRRRR!
You forgot where Richard says "It's all mechanical, you can mend it with a hammer." In Jeremy's voice during Africa Special.
1:39
The face, the voice, the POWAH.... too perfect not to laugh every single time.
2:45 - this is such an underrated iconic James May moment!
My favorite Hammon moment of all time is when he throws the knife and yells "In the cock". He sounds so very enthusiastic about it!
Who would have thought back in 2002 when the three of them first appeared together that 20 years later they would still be doing a show together and literally millions of people would be watching clips of them from those 20 years. Lol
Richard loosing his mind in the mountains with stick figures of May and Clarkson is my favorite moment with him.
Let's have another friend but let's leave him to die on a mountain top.
0:49 being half asleep but still committing to the impression and nailing it so perfectly 😂🤣
4:36's segment has to be my favorite. The chaos is wonderful.
6:09 I nearly puked up my liver, I was laughing so much 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
1:39 that May's face 🤣🤣🤣
2:03 James always does the best Jeremy
It says a lot about the three that despite all of their squabbles when jeremy got fired from the bbc richard and may followed him they are genuine friends maybe they do get in real fights and fuss but they all genuinely enjoy working together
Jeremy: "SPEED AND POWER!"
gets stuck in mud in Africa
James: *"gO fAsTeR!"*
"it's literally the hottest place in the world"😂😂😂👌🏻
If it isn,t getting any cooler i shall open a Window 🤣
4:46 This entire episode was just Hammond going insane
Can we have a “let’s not get bogged down” compilation
It's been done
@@wanaster1themetalhead144 lets not get bogged down if the video has been made or not
0:38 best impression of Jeremy saying "Powerrr!"
The last clip when Jezza "impersonated" Richard had me rolling
Yeah me too, until i heard James impersonating Clarkson in the sleeping bag, i almost woke up my family cause I was laughing so loud uncontrollably🤣
"You bought a house on a tight bend, didn't you? And what have you been doing in the last 15 years? Driving around tight bends on television going (imitating Jeremy) 'POWEEERRR!', and then you're surprised when you wake up and there's a Peugeot 106 in your potting shed!"
-James May, Top Gear Season 7 Episode 2, 2005.
The last clip shows how great friends they are
0:14 "Powerr" 😂😂😂 I choked on my coffee Lmao
Absolutely love it when Clarkson impersonates May 🤣
I love Hammond's mental breakdown atop the mountain
The chemistry between these three guys is truly something to behold.
I always distinctly remember absolutely losing it at "Oh mum, I've just being to the post office they've a new stamp out" when it first aired!
Best part @3:09 when Richard, stranded on top on a Canadian mountain, makes effigies of Jezza and May out of tree branches and then verbally mocks them. Yes it was another incredibly scripted episode/moment, but still funny as hell.
With this and TGT, its seamless between scripted and non-scripted

Honestly, I would just listen to a 10 hour of these chaps just having random conversations with each other, I don't even need the cars
'this is the last of the v12s' is brilliant!
"I don't like beer, I don't like batter, I don't like fish..."
The campfire conversation and Impersonation at the end is a sign of pure friendship
6:12 I died of laughter
*ARE WE FLYING INTO THE SUN?!*
The campfire scene was just brilliant :D
Hammond on the mountain 😂😂
0:39 notice how James twists his right wrist when saying POWAAH as if he's on a motorcycle?
Missed many instances.... "Hello Mum"
James crying “powerrrrrr” never gets old 😂😂😂
May saying Poweeerrr hits different
You missed James naming his spanners.
Hammond imitating clarkson and may is my favorite
james really has nailed his jeremy clarckson impression
When I was young I thought Jeremy was the best.... but nope.... James is savage
lol Jeremy and James Impersonation's of each other is spot on.
1:39 the way his face when he goes 'power
