  • Years ago I watched Brainiac all the time, now for about a year I've been in to Top Gear, Until now i never realized that Hammond was the Brainiac host lol.

  • H e danced chicken.

  • Also this is the new way of detonating bombs!!! Step 1: Dance Step 2:Touch Wire Step 3: ??? Step 4: PROFIT!!!

  • That would be fucking funny if you like where wearing nilon cloths in a nuke wearhouse and touched the metal around the nuke! XD

  • Richard Hammond!!

  • why do they put it to their ears? it's not like someone will answer it...

  • @jaffacake1578 So they know if it diverts to answer?

  • "the bloke dropped his fag.| quote of the day!

  • I remember watching this when I lived in Brixton, but then I moved to bloody America and I don't get BBCAmerica.

    Bollocks.

  • @ 3:31 a rare ident

  • Brainiac caravan check

  • The Nylon rubbing against him creates a negative charge on his body rather than a neutral one.he touches the metal wire the electrons all leave his body and jump to the wire giving him a shock,as the metal also gets a shock and becomes negatively charged the wire leads to the flammable petrol causing the spark to ignite the petrol. the reason this happens at petrol stations is because people get their phones out of their car, rubbing them selves against the upholstery in the car charging them.

  • that last experiment is soooooo fake

  • magic touch

    

  • Shouldn't someone have answered the phone(s)?

  • @G4Vegan you're not serious right? even if someone did answer there won't be any difference the amount of electricity generated by cellphones are not enough to cause a gas explosion...

  • @InhaleTheFlame

    agreed with ilhaletheFlame... what if he didnt answer it...?

    will there be any change in the electromagnetic field of cellphone if he answers the call...?

    or if there be any.. he didn't prove it..

    this experiment is incomplete... though static is lethal.. and though can be cell phones too when you answer them.. (still ambiguous)

  • Quite good actually. Unfortunately the had way to mush gas vapour in the caravan to generate the optimal explotion.

  • He should have been like PIKA *touch* CHU!!!!

  • ha.....nice one!

  • More like, dont bounce on a trampoline at a gas station.

  • THE BLOKE DROPPED HIS FAG

  • Im glad the phones survived but it would be nice if the caravan explodet while they wore ringin

  • cooooooooool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • omg hes a real life pikachu XD

  • OMG! I have that phone!

  • 1:03 So had I been masturbating behind that guy, then every present fueling station would have a sign that read 'do not masturbate in proximity of anyone answering his phone or vice versa'?

  • bloody hell Hammond

    surely after being on top gear you would be used to the smell of petrol!

  • blowing up gas stations

    there will be an app for that

  • this show should still air!

  • Braniac: Caravan Abuse

  • " or maybe the bloak dropped his fag " lol

  • they should put the newest cellphones of sony ericson andnokia that would do the job =]

  • Why are they listening to see if somone answer?

  • @KungFUcat10 I was just thinking that, and then i saw you said it! LOL!

  • you need someone to answer the mobile phone

  • @Leggings1212 be in connected to the earth with a material capable allowing movement of free charges. If he was earthed the static charge would not build up, it would just be balanced by the earth.

  • cool

  • Neither is your mum

  • wow

  • grounded

  • what does grounded mean

  • Completing an electrical circuit to the Earth. Such as being in contact with the Earth, or a metallic object in contact with the Earth

  • that explains it. Static electricity fasinats me

  • yea right it mught burst into flames but not explode!

  • nylon*

  • don't dance in nyloc-clothes at the petrol-station xD

  • Doesn't it say not to ANSWER the phone... how do you expect it to blow up if no one is there to answer it.

  • @InhaleTheFlame Maybe but considering there has never been a fire in the entire world caused by someone answering their phone, letting it ring or having it on I don't suppose it makes much difference.

  • @InhaleTheFlame It's still making the connection.

  • gr8 big boom

    :-)

  • LOL Maureen Johnson.

  • Lol I love how they all hold the phones to their ears as though someone is going to answer. XD

  • they do that to hear if it's ringing, moron ;p

  • There's no need to be rude to a simple misunderstanding.

  • u r a n00b if u think thing like that just dont mess with science u twat

  • FUCK YOU!

  • WTF!

  • not enough petrol i reckon!

  • O.....M.....G

  • another caravan victim.

  • it would be cruel to kill a car...so lets kill a caravan xD

  • that was awesome

  • (Hopefully the fag didn't get dropped on its head) xP i know, i know!!! But WOW this is scary stuff.

  • Interesting. I have a nylon coat I no longer wear partially for that reason, and also because the static would arc through my walkman, not only wiping all my presets off the tuner, but would shock me through the headphones. I suppose the fact that they were Koss Pro 1's with the titanium driver helped aid the conductivity. Instant shock therapy, lol.

  • Yes, the mobile phone stuff was tested in Mythbusters too, with same results even using damaged phones. They alerted us about the static electricity as well
