7:11 I still remember how when this first aired, as soon as Clarkson mentioned the towns name everyone in the room watching fell completely silent. My heart actually dropped in my chest as, tbh, I’d forgotten briefly that Chernobyl was in Ukraine. I mean I _hadn’t_ but it’s one of those ‘oh that’s right’ moments.
0:19 I really do hope they cross the border to Botswana in the final Zimbabwe special and end Grand Tour at the first meeting point they had in a Top Gear special.
For anyone interested, they mention this in the producers' voiceover on the DVD. The man was very impressed by Richard's headdress which had been wrapped in a lesser-known local style.
@@vinylyearprojectnah they woulda been scared off at most with maybe some broken windshields or windows and dents in the car, Americans aren't crazy. The closest was probably in Argentina when the police were making baracades for them to travel the roads and it still wasn't safe, half the filming was done on phones for that bit
@@benknock981I agree Argentina was worse, but as an American who was born and raised in the south, it could have gotten really bad! Not that it would have, but many atrocities that happened in the south, happened less than a generation ago. Stuff still happens. I love southerners but if you piss them off, you could get in some real trouble!
They do it as parody to prove that places like that aren't really that bad... people are discriminatory for no reason against these places and the people who live there.
Only James could go the wrong way at the start of the Botswana Special. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love Clarkson shouting "MY ARSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" in the Bolivia Special! 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
have you done a comp on all the times they mentioned Richard doing After Dinner Speeches after his accident, I can still recall Hammond or Jeremy saying, £5000 a pop, it's every week
@RichyJFilms The race was fun to watch, but the speech was too much cringe to bear. I'm sure they did it on purpose with editing, but it's basically unwatchable for me.
Tonight….. we meet at the border post between Zimbabwe and Botswana….we crossover from Uganda into Rwanda…..we get told we’re not allowed to cross from Iraq into Iran due to political reasons…..we arrive at the scary Turkish border….. we cross into Syria with Hammond blaring Genesis on his radio…..we crossover into Jordan and then Israel…. We bid Hammond farewell as he is last in our race to the us-Mexican border and has to cross into Mexico…Hammond falls asleep at the Argentine-chile border…..May and arrive at a river crossing lacking an bridge…..we race to run out of fuel before reach Chernobyl near the border with Belarus….we arrive at a strange border between Georgia and Russia….and Hammond and I arrive at the Cambodian Vietnam border in things that are not cars.
Another reply to a different comment pointed out that the UK can let you order additional passports to get around some situations where countries with political differences prevent travel between them. So its not a fake passport, and it is both legal and to an extent necessary. Otherwise they wouldn't have been able to make that trip at all.
Right, I was actually saying this to myself, as I do every time I watch their Ukraine roadtrip. The town that was built along with the plant was called Pripyat, but there is also a town called Chernobyl very nearby (15 km south) from which the plant took its name. And unlike Pripyat, that town is not fully uninhabitated today, even though it's "supposed" to be

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened. Thanks for being a part of my childhood, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May!
The race to the Mexican boarder was so good
"The French policeman and lady policeman" - it's lines and -isms like this that make us love Jeremy.
He and Richard ended up hitchhiking.

I like how they purposely go to sketchy countries quite often 😂
And among all those sketchy countries,the closest they were to death was in the US 💀💀💀

Crikey, it’s the (x) Rozzers!
Wake up boys new top gear compilation just dropped
The clip where Jeremy yells my arse always gets me😂
4:28 “MYYYY ARSEEEEEEEE!!!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭💀💀💀 Had me rolling
Imagine all the places these lads have been to that you can't today. Syria, Israel, Ukraine, Bolivia. Some experiences.
I like how Jeremy knows his car has no brakes, so he decides to drive directly to where his coworkers are standing. Sounds like something I’d do.
The fact that the man is actually made it is unbelievable

He’s the Hamster for a reason
cutting off at 9:40 is a travesty
5:52 shhh, he's eepy
6:02
Too late
My favourite is when they cross into Syria 🇸🇾 and James's car says armed/disarmed and Jeremy says "don't press that going into Syria"
The alarm will sound if you don’t back away
Top Gear's greatest fans: border police dogs!
4:51 Now I've got the context for why Hammond and Clarkson dared May in that one episode of TGT
Idea: Compilation of the trio disagreeing with each other and siding with one another in an debate
There’s loads of content for that 😂 like every episode
@@earthwormjim1837 maybe pick out the most memorable ones
6:36 Before you cross a river, make sure there's a damn bridge there.
What about their border encounters in Sand Job?
Awh the proper early clip at the start 🫶🏻
Check out the £1 car challenge thats EARLY TG
It was series 9, so not THAT early
“doesn’t work” compilation?
Hammond Clarkson James bum complications when
1:25 anyone else bummed that the trio wasn’t able to enter Iran?
To be honest, they were probably safer in Iraq than they were in Alabama.
Kurdistan yes. Iraq nooo
France: Takes all your money at the border, then sends you back.
BRING IT
and i was the first to arrive
Wrong but I love your pfp 🫶🏻
@@Faith01841 i was lol

What does he mean with dirty and clean passport? Since im sure a fake one on tv wouldnt be good

Chernobyl was not the name of the town, it was the name of the power plant. I loved that episode but that blunder always bothered me lol
If this bothers you, then don't watch it.

I wonder how they can have two passports for them to use in Syria and Israel
