That recurring joke of James being brutally killed and responding with a slightly annoyed "ow" never gets old

3:03 Whoever decided to add the "OW" is a genius
Nah, they should have made him say “KOHK”
@@whyuneedtoknow1088 No no, it IS a running joke, see the scene where he drives his Jag over the cliff in the US for example.
@@gibbsfreenthalpy he never said it wasn't a running joke, he just suggested he said something else
The anvil was a nice touch as well.
I think he should have said "HAMMOND,YOU IDIOT" because if he didn't visit him this wouldn't happen(I am not saying anything about Jeremy)
Nice to see him getting some use out of that coat he got for Antarctica
North pole actually. Antartica is SOUTH pole
Muhammad Rafa terribly sorry
@@jevanking4768 eh it's fine. I forgive anyone that makes small but not annoying mistakes.
Muhammad Rafa very kind of you but I should have double checked before writing the comment
@@jevanking4768 yup.
The most unrealistic part of this is that they expect us to believe that James May’s outlet would ever look like that
man probably made specific lanes for his wires
Or that he would ignore it, even when it wasn't sparking. Jezza can set him into fits with his watch bezel.
Wanted to make a comment exactly like this. You Beat me to it. Well done to you sir
😂😂😂
😭😂
BBC made a huge mistake letting these guys get away. They're geniuses
Basically Clarkson happened
Genii you mean... 😉
You abuse the staff you should accept the consequences no matter who you are.
Well done! You’ve earned your 500th like!
The BBC is a genius like those who voted for brexit. 👏

Back to the studio
The guy that found the source of the river Nile
With two lesser known blokes. 🤣
Mafia studios?
@123 456 shh, it was the source
They should put up a statue in Trafalgar Square or something. He deserves that much, surely? ;-)
Eng. Rashad, James May was the one out of the trio to find the water source of the Nile River.

"OW!"

"oh cock"
"Cock."

“Ow” - final words of James May 1963-2017
James I would have been happier with "oh cock"
James - considerable typo in there mate, you mean 1863... right?
Is he from 1963?!? My father is older than him and looks 10 years younger! My mother, too! He truly is an old lady.

Kristian Messenger he was just kidding
Some say he already died in Albania, and that he now roams our physical realm with a murderous yet pedantic nature. All we know is, he's called Captain Slow!
murderous in he talks you to death!

I read that in clarksons voice
I read this comment with Clarkson's voice in my mind😁
All we know is that he is called Captain Slow.

“Does that mean they’re not coming on then?
Well james their hearts have now given up on supporting their lifes so thats a no.

Well James, my heart has stopped pumping blood to my body and now I’m dead
So no

And the anvil lol
*Roof tiles
@@jaybird0312we need to make this in minecraft
That anvil was slower than May was.
That ending was actually bloody well done, if you look at the closing door there is no sign of an edit. I know it’s not necessarily difficult to do but it was damn smooth.
That was my reaction as well. Really well done edit.
Or they just filmed in mexico and killed a stuntman......
Same with the train, only way you can tell its two shots is by looking in the reflection of the car as there is no train in its reflection.
One day this title is going to be very confusing
Edit: The video used to be called 'James May is still alive'.
you are confusing...
Nameless 261 when he inevitably dies for real
Oh damn......
Dont . Just dont say that .
Oh what a day that will be......
If you play this in 0.25 speed it'll be more realistic as they had to speed the film up
TheCynicMillenial Show 1.25 you mean?
No 1.25 is when u are going faster and 0.25 is when u are going slower so it is in fact 0.25
haha
James is called "Captain slow" or "snail"...
Someone the Italians call him Mister Slowly
I love, that at 2:14 he turns left, which is the only unmarked direction (very subtle joke about his orientation in space)
"Ow"
Oof
cock

The music is very fitting for James
ked4 too bad he's been crushed to mush. Sad times.
What song is it?
@@razzledcroaker3678 it's "life of leisure" and "girl in a sports car"
Because its slow
Long live kpm
Love how he turns up at the hospital just to check that they are still there...and then walks straight out
These promos are like foreplay before sex but like dragged over 2 months so quite a bit of a torture
Shayan Givehchian some people pay good money for that.

Fuck you, they are fun and entertaining to watch
Were is my sock?
Of course he’s still alive. He’s Captain Slow. Or as the Italians call him...
Mr Slowly
@@dany3020 it was a joke on a top gear episode
I remember that joke! But honestly I don't know how it got translated into Italian, cause we actually call him "Capitan Lento", which perfectly translates into "Captain Slow"
There’s actually a surname in our language that perfectly translate to Slowly or Go slowly. Random coincidence.
@@MikhaelAhava what surname are you talking about?
@BOO5T “Maghinay.” It’s a Visayan name nothing important really.
Some say his heart beats three times slower than the average person, and that he is constantly in slow motion...
...all we know is that he’s called James May.
nybotor well he was born in 1836
All we know is hes called Captain Slow
And that his year only contains 30 days may
Read that in Clarksons voice..
If you change video it 1/4 normal speed he is going in slow mo.
I'm watching this again after almost 3 years, it's still brilliant.
They should definitely keep uploading skits like this regularly on drivetrive, in between their Amazon specials. Not just as marketing for the new special, just car related, or any, skits in general.
British Sketch Comedy meets the Grand Tour.
Does that mean he’s not coming on then?
Geoffrey Gibson BSc Oh 😕
Geoffrey Gibson BSc 😂😂🤣
That will never get old. We will all be dead and dust.....that comment will still be thrown around on comment sections everywhere.
Well he has multiple fractures and brain trauma...so that's a no...
He said "Ow", so that's a no.
Your telling me that JAMES MAY. JAMES MAY! HAS AN OVERLOADED PLUG SOCKET AND A GAP. A GAP! IN HIS SHED
Yeah, just really doesn't ring true, now does it? Must have been sabotage. :)

''Hammond/Clarkson: You didn't even visit us at the hospital! May: I did, but you slept, so I left. Hammond/Clarkson: Couldn't you've waited for us to wake up? May: We don't wait, you know that.''
Zyx Nice.
Oh cock. House rules go... If it's not my fault, I can leave
I read that in their voices lol
Omg XDDD
is that from an episode?
This hits differently after his crash in the Scandinavian special
This was clearly faked as the place James May keeps his bike isn’t organised in the slightest
I would never have known this
Another commenter pointed it out to me that this may be intentional as all throughout the video there are attempts at James's life so it isn't too unreasonable to think someone tried to sabotage his garage.
And this is clearly faked because James May is moving too fast
you don't say
the most brilliant mind in the galaxy
The funny thing is that James already drank paint stripper in Vietnam
I think it was Burma
@@amaanzeb9661 Yeah, it was. White spirit, IIRC.

@OCD Stig no grand tour
I love this! I was thinking about this the other day. I love the idea of Richard and Jeremy being put on the same ward, next to eachother.
just one week left, can't wait. By the way James, is that the very same coat you were wearing in the polar special?
darius2640 Didnt know the weather is that bad in England.
He is just getting old xD
If the coat is in good shape, why wouldn't he get rid of it.
Also the Canada one 💁🏻
darius2640 love how the fact they’re badly dressed is a running joke yet James and Richard both wear Canada Goose jackets around £1000
I was expecting James to throw grapes at the two of them until they woke up.
That's not James May's Panda. The headliner is dirty, which is unacceptable for a man obsessed with things such as air vents' alignment.

Was disappointed it wasn't the Dacia sandero
Funny thing is that he's never owned the Panda... He said all his cars are mid engined and the Panda is his girlfriend's.
@@Sum_Guy He also owned/owns a classic Porsche 911 which is rear engined....
01:08 I love the attention to detail of the previously broken tiles suggesting this is a common occurrence.
That was the first tile when he entered the building
For those who are wondering what the songs are called:
Keith Mansfield - Life of Leisure
Alan Hawkshaw - Girl in a Sportscar (when James is in the car)
nah , we're good.
OMG YES
captain?
I am quite sure they used those in Old top gear too
Thank you
With this luck he could defeat Thanos with his eyes closed.
Good god that picture of jeremy on your profile picture is absolutely terrifying
Sucks that one day this video won't be true
Wow, I don't like the fact you pointed that out and the fact you are right.
that's what they want you to think
or you know, james can just pull a sekiro and get blessed with immortality by the queen or something
On the bright side, i don’t think that day is quite yet. James seems to me as a man in good health for his age, but i know nothing.
Ffs dude
Love these guys! I wish they still did weekly episodes. Miss their antics so much!
i think for the most part james is like a bass player in a band dosent get enough credit for his work
101 Gaminglegion - You get it
101 Gaminglegion Like John Paul Jones?
He is a pianist and I'd say they are under appreciated in bands as well so it kinda makes sense. Plus they had the Top gear band where Jeremy was the drummer and Richard was the guitarist. Theyre awful lol but the instruments suit them at the same time
Evi1M4chine - Nice troll 7/10
Evi1M4chine Moron alert.
3:01 should've been a piano. Smh
Like your thinking. Not going to work though.
.... he wasn't driving a Morris Marina.
Caravan piano Caravan sandwich
Or a caravan
Careless air 😂
Well their sister company flying pianos went bust as people were complaining how many of their morises were getting smashed by the piano being carried by helis
Since he's Captain Slow, maybe it takes him longer to pass away. Jk love The Grand Tour can't wait for Season 2
ProNGRGamer I
Why do I get the impression James loved filming this.
The Morris Marina owner’s club strikes back
I hate James may and the other two but mainly James may

Episode 6: Return of James May.
This is the best comment ever.
James May will always remind everyone of their somewhat eccentric uncle who never got married.
yeah actually now that you bring it up he does
And as that uncle, I thank you for your support.
That Canada Goose jacket
SUBSCRIPTION BREAK!!
Fancy seeing you guys here
Top of the tier
Whats wrong with it?
have one in black
Only the real OG’s remember when this was called “James May is still alive”
Why was the name changed? Did the channel get a rebrand?
@@stuff31yes
He wasn't wearing a high-visibility vest when he crossed the tracks...
my god, what a madman!
1/10 not using a tampon to clean oil off his bike
But the last time I changed plugs on my car, I looked at 'em the same way.
I'm telling you, reading spark plugs is becoming a lost art
Throwback to Bolivia.
"James was suspiciously skillful with the vaseline and condoms"
haha i read it in Clarkson's book
What about this hob
But remember when he said he used tampons to clean off the spilt milk in the tight spaces of his kitchen??
The music he was playing in his car made me feel so nostalgic
Pls name the song
@@SpaceManRayRay
Girl in a sportscar. - Alan Hawkshaw
Life of leisure - Keith Mansfield
@@Ellis007Bond thanks for providing the song titles!
Do you know the name of it?
Same here bud!
*As a newfound fan of this trio I’m absolutely loving these clips!*
I couldnt stop laughing when the anvil just come from no where. You guys always make me laugh 😂😂😂😂
"ow" lol
LUKEY ... The anvil that fell out of nowhere was the funniest part🤣😂👍
That's a skip...
Is anyone else surprised he doesn't have a dacia sandero?
It's been said on the show several times that his daily driver is a Fiat Panda.
He did briefly get one as a gift from Jeremy but it got reversed into by a lorry in Romania
bad news!
Or a volvo
Kha 472 WHAT!?!?
Captain Hamster
ramna rs LmAo captain hamster
Could you please explain this to me? Who was the shouting man? Why hamster? Why not Slow this time? What am I missing here?
Soup because he had to present the 3 man show on his own
The BBC will probs rape them if they used "Captain Slow"
James may is usually known as captain slow, but the bbc would sue for that. Hammond is known as the hamster, so together, getting around being sued, you have captain hamster
Jeremy, James and Hammond are basically another version of "The Golden Girls"
They grow on you and love them for their quirks
Utter nonsense. There's no grandma character for a start, she made that whole show.
@@DanceySteveYNWA Lol all of them are Grandma's.... I think what you mean is there is no Sophia
Let Stig be Sophia then!!
At least he wasn't driving a Morris Marina. I hear pianos fall on them all the time.
Dalek Sram it's those pilots from 'Careless Airs' can't transport piano's
It's raining piano as far as I know in that part of England
That was the major fault when the cars came out.
Ray Banner Cats and dogs I knew of, but of this one I have not heard before.
Morris minor more like, like the piano chord
I'm a bit surprised they didn't drop a Morris Marina on it. :-)
Or a caravan! Or is that Top Gear's thing?
I think it's a symbol. That the Morris Marina just isn't good enough to be responsible for killing May. It's so bad that even a garbage dumpster was better for the job.
Several years had passed since they did that Morris Marina thing. Now if they try to drop one to kill May, the Marina would be so rusty it would disintegrate in the air before it even touches his car.
I was kinda hoping it would be a piano, but the skip is acceptable.
Or a grand piano.
The living legend Captian Slow
Captain Slow.
Or as the italians call him: Mr. Slowly
Well not so living now
He said "Ow."😅
He’s so slow death can’t catch up to him
James May: gets shot 95,000,000 times
Also James May: **ow**
Anyone else notice that the van guy said captain hamster not slow
cj panda probably copyright or something
Yes. Literally everyone that watched it noticed that. That was the purpose of the joke.
thanks, Captain obvious.
@@BPJJohn Anyone else notice that BPJ John said captain obvious not slow
Didnt he say captain m'ster?
He really is Captin Slow
He's even slow at getting injured
Do you know what the music is in the video
1:52 They used the same music in Top gear old peoples car episode
And in the convertible espace episode
Burt Bacharach or Gilbert O’sullivan?
Same coat for the polar expedition episode too.
Music is Alan Hawkshaw Girl In Sportscar
If anyone cares
ToastedVirgin S he said ow instead of "Cock" at the end cos beeb have claimed it their own
The "ow" is so incredibly well placed and iconic
2:52 even the doors close in on time to his death.
Ye he’s god so he survived
He cut his hair ;_:
James!!! Regrow your hair immedietly! You old DingleBerry!
X_killersun_X thank God he was looking homeless
He looks like man for once. Thank God
I am surprised at how grey it is. I kind of like it. A new
Look for Captn slow.
I like the long hair please grow it back
It's gonna be big embarrassing welcome for Hamster in first episode , like the last time when he almost died . I thought Jezza was just joking about his 9 lives . But he wasn't.
Only 7 lives to go.
I remember Watching It On Tele. It was Very Emotional. I was in tears !
Jezza Called Hammond's Name So Passionately that I burst into tears 😢😢
This showed that How Much He meant to Him & attached they are all to each other, especially Jezza and Hammond They Have a truly special Bond!
I Hope we get to see a similar Moment In the 1st episode
6 actually, he crashed twice during the filming of this season. He also crashed his motorbike and knocked his head badly somewhere in Mozambique or something
Bus Stop add to that when he fell off from a horse in burma and falling off a bike in the middle of a tram line in russia and that time he crashed his morgan
to add when he rolled his nova in the retro hot hatch challenge
James was ever a kind of childish person
And we love that 😂 he’s so careless
So he survived the mulsanne crash in Albania...
wot?
No he was literally killed. He said so himself.
*bentley
Nick it wasnt him driving the bentley
Jeremy was driving "Bentley" in first place. After bank job done James' colleagues jumped into Rolls and Merc, so only available car was "Bentley".
the "ow" killed me :'DD
2:03 the fast and the furious intensifies
Clever, it was post 2:30 when he 'died'. Nice one Grand tour, wasn;t expecting that.
These guys are immortal
You know you're a gentlemen when your only reaction to being crushed by a skip is "ow"
Is it just me or is James May morphing into Jeremy Clarkson? Appearance wise.
Nivane H stomach wise for sure
It's the drink... 😕
If you look at the early episodes of Top Gear when James started, he and Jeremy were in sync with their clothing. If they were women, they would have been mortified.
He needs to keep that hair long
That "Ow" at the end was absolutely golden.
This is hilarious while at the same time being terrifying. This brings up an inevitability I don't like to consider when thinking about those 3 people.
*"I know it's you, you insufferable oaf I'm on the bloody throne"*
Not many will understand the true dynamics of this sentence mate. It was from the Bonnevile speedtracks in Colorado I think where Clarkson drove the RV while James was.... busy.
"Clarkson, you infantile pillock!"
Umut Can Arslan No it was not from the segment. He specifically used that sentence during their expedition to North pole when he was doing his number 2.
Suhas Rao Suhas Rao Oh yes I’ve totally forgotten about that you’re right. I remember it was at the back of the Toyota pickup truck which Jeremy was driving wasn’t it?
I like how Clarkson is the poshest one out of the three, but is also the biggest yob.
James looks weird with short hair
Nick Hepler better*
@jonny j Yeah i think guys look better with long hair. I also think girls with shorter hair are hot af :D I have it reversed
@@rafathegaffer5739 Better? He looks like a regular grandpa now
Nick Hepler this was when his identity was stolen and he had to change to dingle berry hand pump
dion jay woollaston he looks like a geography teacher.
After Scandi Flick, it's surprising how he's still alive
Scandi flicks are fine and safe, just don't overdo them - I should know!
You three people come back again plz🙏.....You are no less than legends. Missing those days.
Look up drivetribe
It's the "alright captain Hamster" line that completely cracked me up.
Zachary Thomas Looks like it's just us :)
Thank you. I didn't understand what that man said :D
I was looking in the comments for someone who noticed! Seems like it's just a few of us. (Or do people not know the difference between Hamster and Captain Slow?)
Regeane Wolfe We are the hardcore!
I thought I mis-heard it the first time.
"James May, James May stealing from the rich,
James May, James May stealing from the poor,
he steals from the rich,
hes steals from the pooor,
and want's moooore,
wants it all,

which episode was this again
James May is a good lad. Clearly he looks after his mates well and show alot of care aswell. 👌🏾
Now this is pure *British* Banter.
JustTahmid yeah it’s shit
This is already better then same movies I have seen this year ..
Great staff
I had god awfully shit day at work but this put smile on my face. Thank you. Cant wait to see season 2.
I just love that he still wears his Polar Special jacket 😂 after raving in the episode about hating it 😂😂
I miss james mays 'long top gear' hair
Markzilla 1018 Well to be honest, he started off with short hair.
Thellbro He probably started off with no hair. I know I did.
I was like a Cue Ball.

Dalvin 2426 hahahhahaha lol
Fake! Richard would have already pulled the plug on jezza the moment he was left alone with him.
He must've tried his hardest, but got so tired he took a nap.
James may is still alive.....looks like he’s having trouble with the kettle though
That "ow" at the end
YASSSS I’m so excited. Also you can never kill James May, he drove his car off a cliff and didn’t even break a fingernail.
Because it was scripted, they launched that shitty red car off the cliff with a dummy
