[ultraschannel1]

snowmobiles are so fucking fun to drive but are a real pain in the ass when they get stuck in the snow :S

[Jackle61]

@ultraschannel1 You just turn them around and drive out your own track.

[csshacker97]

[TotalErajorma]

so is this filmed in finland, sweden or norway? does anyone know

[xparty]

@TotalErajorma well, where do you think lapland is?

[joakimr91]

@xparty Sweden ;)

[xparty]

@joakimr91 Lapland was mentioned in the video though. Not saying you are wrong though. Maybe it's intended to appear as Finland, but flmed up in Sweden? Ah well =P

[aboajaka]

@xparty Both Sweden and Finland has a Lapland.

[TotalErajorma]

@xparty Its in finland, norway and sweden. its not a country you know.

[norrlimo]

@TotalErajorma This is filmed i Kiruna, Sweden and the snowmobile racing was filmed at Hogheden circuit in Alvsbyn, Sweden. I was the contact person in Alvsbyn.

[JopzUploads]

Trust me, when u get stuck under the snow with a 350kg snowmobile 20 times a day, your arms are kinda fking dead...

[pluckyou90]

@JopzUploads do you drive a viking??

[MachoBubble]

I have 1975 ski-doo elan and its way older than those and still it rocks :D

[Mittin08]

I'd love to see a now older Clarkson hop onto a newer sled... Something with at least 140 horsepower.

[benzieproductions]

jeremy clarksons extreme machines had a really good taste in music

[KsEInFlames]

The oldest Ive had is a 1989 Yamaha Bravo 250 and that was a blast

[SilverHawkk]

@KsEInFlames The Yamaha Bravo 250 was the very first snowmobile that's I've EVER ridden... It was a blast and a great beginner's sled, I still remember the great times with it! I own a Ski-Doo now and it is a completely different beast, not recommended for beginners nor the faint-at-heart. LOL!

[KsEInFlames]

@SilverHawkk we actually had a few bravos throughout the years. But finally last year our two remaining got to the point where every time you would go out another part would break. They were great though. I now drive an MXZ or at least hoping

we more snow this year so i can go out

[UnCanadienFrancais]

Thanks to Joseph Armand Bombardier for this invention ! Is there any Bombardier (BRP) snowmobile in England ???

[TerraniaStarcraft]

"Tank track thing....." What you going to ban tracks now because they put them on tanks to? Just like you brit gov took guns away from good people.

[superorgasm]

ive watched this stupid dickies commercial a hundred times.. FUCK OFF WITH THE ADS YOUTUBE!

[fairyheli2]

@superorgasm press f5

[rubenick]

@superorgasm so you're one of the few that would rather pay to use YouTube?

[yamimm700]

how old is this video anyone no?



[veyronman]

@yamimm700 late 90s

[PieKlan]

Smashing Pumpkins, nice choice TopGear guys!

[veyronman]

@PieKlan this isn't a clip from Top Gear

[Demonized93]

Finnish snowmobile lynx

[invisibl3jim]

The songs smashing pumpkins - tonight, tonight

[apollonorm]

i know my RMKs run really good. they're a bit newer than those sleds though.

[ninwiimatt]

What The Song at 1:11 Called

[vedar1]

0:49 i got the same snowmoblie but i have put a 503 cc engine in it so it is a monster :o

[freeworldofskiing]

god bless canada :D

[retrohippie]

Gotta love Smashing Pumpkins in the background

[Samza92]

I have that model, what shows on 0.46 with syncro gearbox and without it. (two snowmobiles lol)

[galinneall]

1:35 "...when half the time you can't see where you're going..." - That's why it's good to be in the lead.

Andy Capp explained how to win a race - start off in the lead and improve your position throughout the race. Sorry, just a bit of early morning rambling.

[virus56777]

those sleds are 30 years old

[dangeroustoys56]

Dang thats alot of snow- i miss trail riding on my 79 arctic cat eltigre 5000 - only seen snow that deep a few times....

[tokuos]

It´s Sweden because snowmobile has not register plates, you can see. But snow mobile (Lynx) is finnish. It is the best as reindeer herdering use.

[mattiash]

Snowmobiles in sweden do have plates.

[thefattim426]

CANADIAN MADE :D

[haardkaar]

Finnmark, Norway. Lappland, Sweden and Lappi, Finland are all called Lapland in English.

I don't think this is filmed in Sweden. Far as I know Top Gear have never been to Sweden, except that time Clarkson raced to Norway after having some spunk in Denmark.

[WihlWihl]

Lappland -> Sweden

[Moh1Z]

but this isn't Top Gear, it's Jeremy Clarkson's Extreme Machines

[jonsson55]

It's in Finland. Lappland is in Finland.

[alt572]

A part of lapland is here in finland.

[Lennholm89]

i'd guess he's in sweden, cuz there arent many other places that got that... animal thingy. Its Ren on swedish anyways

[proximo26]

invented by Joseph-Armand Bombardier......(Quebec) CANADA!!!! yaaa Canada

[fatrug33]

wooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[mitch509768]

thats old school today we have m8 turbos :)

[futisman1]

This video is almost 1 year old!

[Thellbro]

no, it was uploaded a year ago.

It´s probably 15 years old.

[chopperhead2011]

LoL I liked the dog

I saw a guy do a double backflip on a snowmobile

[BUMBARU]

Invented in Quebec, snowmobiles were the first motorized land vehicle that reached the North Pole. The expedition was lead Ralph Plaisted, and included the inventor's nephew Jean-Luc Bombardier. After 43 days ­ on April 19, 1968 ­ the American Air Force, which had been following the expedition, confirmed that the team had reached the 90th. The aviators told the heroes of their victory: "Gentlemen, from where you stand, everywhere is south."

Top Gear made it there in better style though.

[alli95]

Snowmobiles rock

[GTtuner56]

in quebec we call them ski doo :P though it's the brand..! it's so nice to drive!! and i'm 14.. xD

[burnout21]

Smashing Pumpkins FTW.

[Transam941]

Damn that snow was deep!

[mastakilla14]

u might fall in or some shit

[STRIDEsugarFREEgum]

lol

[Transam941]

What are you Republican?

[snbkid22]

he should ride a sled now he would be in for a suprise

[seroyer2]

they have been around since the 60s

[dofty]

Where is this? Looks like Norway or Sweden or Finland.

[rowland2k8]

it sez at the start its in lapland

[dofty]

So it's in Finland ok, thanks! Didn't notice it.

[SlickSy]

The song at 1:20 is "Tonight, Tonight" by 'The Smashing Pumpkins'

[OCMElPolo]

does anybody knows the title (if available) of the song at 1:20?

[Tominator907]

haha those sleds are so old and funny looking. They've definetely changed a lot since then

[sledforlife]

lol the first snowmobile they show looks like it has a huge tunnel when you fist see it, but really is two skies sticking out or something like that.

[gtrvdc]

who's "jason"? please let me know.

[StPaul76]

I would have wanted to see Clarkson trying ride the thing. I've done some sledding and it is surprisingly exhausting when going fast. And Jezza is no athlete.. :D

[HondaManCR500]

Tank Track Thing..lol

My Sled Loves To Run On Water

[trailrider92]

top gear noes cars i admit but when it comes to snowmobiles they dont know that much

[Dagashi6669]

Ummm... THIS IS NOT TOP GEAR!!!

[trailrider92]

yes and thats why it says topgear in the top left hand conner

[Dagashi6669]

I do not know why it has "Top Gear" watermarked over the video... but I can assure it IS NOT "Top Gear".

It is a BBC show called "Jeremy Clarksons Extreme Machines".

And if you had a brain even half the size of a peanut, you would also notice the TITLE.

[Awesomeman1987]

its early top gear before james and hammond or jason

[Dagashi6669]

It's not "Top Gear before James and Hammond or Jason"... it's simply not Top Gear.

Clarkson also did a program very similar to Top Gear called "Fifth Gear".

Is that also Top Gear "before James and Hammond or Jason"??

May also has his own show called "James May's 20th Century".

Is that Top Gear without Clarkson, Hammond and Jason??

Just recognise each show as an individual, as you would do a set of twins, and leave it at that.

[Awesomeman1987]

wow do you overreact

[cyberJamilonc]

but he got u

[Nickelbackfreak432]

wow....i cant believe i have to explain this....you stop...you sink....your not just going to keep going and going and going and never stop...and it kinda hard to turn on a snow mobile when your on water....

[Nickelbackfreak432]

they CAN go on water and mud....but #1 water, they sink and #2 mud fucks it up.

[tedthemoose]

they don't sink in water. as long as they don't stop. youtube it.

[Nickelbackfreak432]

its a go anywhere vehicle...as long as its not summer

[tootsie400]

Snowmobiles can actually go on water and mud.

go ahead and search it on youtube.

[vectraB97]

that is no bambi, it is Rudolf,lol we have peopel who live of like that in norway. whe call them samer..

[niswel]

bambi farming LOL:)

[xicedlovexoxo]

lmfao that snow was damn deep even for Jezza XD I bet Richard would have just jumped off and disappeared completely. or it'd be just the top of his head haha

[jhaza1s]

yeah lol

[sharpbrick1]

lol

[parasmani6]

no i think he would disappear completely

[Jcashrulez]

[allisinthepass]

[Charles2337]
