[NoMoreCorps]

I'm very sorry that we don't have sea to protect us, I'm very sorry that our pilots was helping to protect London, I'm very sory that Soviets was the one's that liberate us and punish for that getting everything what was valuable and I'm very sorry that your anty-nuke-shild is now over our heads to protect your lazy asses from Iran or more form China. I'M VERY SORRY!..

[tomtheturtle180]

I have met Ben Collins at the BTCC at brands hatch 2010

[chalkeagle]

hats off to these guys!!! :)

[carter2992]

Every TG vid has a TG US and TG UK comparison :P

[orihalchon]

@carter2992 Of course! It's to show how big the difference both these shows are! XD

[BarEnFaroth]

Wow. Fair play to these guys! What a fantastic achievement.

Triple amputee in the dakar rally? Thats amazing.

stig decal on helmet at 1:06 

[jeremy915111]

nice to see ben collins. he created the stig stance where he folds his arms and leans to one side

[NoMoreCorps]

Sory for my impulse, I really like Top Gear! And I think they doing great job. And these guys should start in races in first place, because this is their nalural territory. I hope they will win and brake their bad luck. PEACE!

[ccjones500]

@NoMoreCorps wtf is wrong with you?! You disgusting coward

[ccjones500]

@NoMoreCorps I'm English actually. America is generally unpleasant we can all agree on that but dude, calm down.

[NoMoreCorps]

@ccjones500 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,.. I'm very awared about war with Iran. This can be really "the end" if you know what I mean.. :(

[TheCorbs0479]

@ccjones500 Have you ever been to america?

[ccjones500]

@TheCorbs0479 Yes, why do you ask?

[ccjones500]

@NoMoreCorps wtf is wrong with you?! You disgusting coward

[vicpik]

@NoMoreCorps you must be a sad, sad person.

[NoMoreCorps]

@vicpik I'm angry for all changes that latest wars did, there is only worse! And there is to much of war promotion in media. Are they preparing us to ultimate war or what? I think this is the best way to find new recruiters

[marchonos]

love love

[axlplayer14]

@Sya93im I am American. These people better just be hating on top gear because this is really inspiring.

[guridiable]

this guys are heroes

[BayAreaOrBust]

47 people wish they drove a Wildcat

[tnarg27]

@gigabot183 Yes he did

[gigabot183]

0:59 Did Hammond just say 'Ex-Stig'??

[GFXGamer]

@gigabot183 yea, there are different poeple who play the stig, the first black stig was perry mccarthy and then when they first introduced the white stig ben collins was the main guy who played the stig with some others as well but now idk whos playing the current stig

[JBDUK117]

@gigabot183 Yeah, Ben Collins (Stock Car Racer) was the old Stig. He wrote a biography of his life and wanted to write in the book telling his time about being The Stig. Obviously top gear didn't like this as they didn't want his identity to be compromised . Ben Collins took Top Gear to court and he won. So everyone found out who The Stig is.

[tracybuddha]

Those guy's are so inspiring they have been through so much and are still all smiles,They are truly role models

[axlplayer14]

I would like to know who disliked this video. Are they freaking retards?

[Sya93im]

@axlplayer14 Im guessing its the americans...

[KlunkerRider]

Nice to see Splitter Stig still a part of the show, Top Gear: dont teach the new one how to read or write, you wont have to hatch another one.

[jenxx49]

Go on lads, you rock xxx

[minja714]

The difference between UK and USA top gear is like chocolate and shit. Same color with a difference taste and quality.

[lllLucky13lll]

@minja714 that was probably the worst analogy I've ever heard

[BJBJ5375]

what's this?



[TeknoPL]

Damn why did they change the stig... Damn it

[americanu197]

it seems the guys havent participated in the dakar after all i could find nothing about them participating in any competition

[FidiAdrianos]

no Real Men like these guys have hollywood stars popularity and they deserve much more respect !!!

[05adictuz29]

If you think Top Gear US sucks, you should see Top Gear Philippines

[rmjcgo]

the uk version is very funny, they take risky situations that the others are afraid to do. thats what makes it better than the others. is not the cars

[SpoOkyBeEf]

I agree with everyone else in the comments, the US version sucks i got through 25 minutes of the first episode and i felt my life ebbing away very, very slowly.

[minibus9]

awsome truly awsome

[robdavis16]

these guys are total legends !!! massive respect to them

[iRiggers]

I don't understand why the US Top Gear producers didn't get a bunch of Ex race drivers or car enthusiasts with a bit of attitude to present the show, And better still old rivals who had a bit of a chip on the shoulder about each other, that would have worked.

I watched it in the UK and I didn't see Anything American in the people, where was that American 'Yeeehaw!' character? nowhere, it all looked to nice, refined & civilised, it felt like everyone should be wearing dicki bows in the studio.

[ameyagandhe]

Hat's off to these guys

[TheSLeaZ]

I think we can all agree that other countries should just stop trying to make their versions of top gear...

[frinik]

i think its safe to say they cant beat the original...Australian one sucked so bad they had to cancel it

[danmufcwwe1]

And on that bombshell... Awkward

[raul19822012]

Us topgear except tanner seem akward.

[sammyte5]

I'm korean and i hate "top gear korea"

[DanTheCaptain]

Oh ya and what episode is this?

[DanTheCaptain]

WTF! did Richard say X-STIG! people were right all along!

[nachgeben]

@DanTheCaptain Old news about the Stig. It was all over the news, actually. They have a new one.

[DanTheCaptain]

@nachgeben i know

[FreestyleBrain]

These guys deserve it to be at the dakar so much. Huge respect for what they are doing.

[jpakapj]

They are training for the 2013 rally and it's £500,000 to enter.

[MrJoajan]

Hey wtf is that sound when you like someone's comment?

[lambojeremy1304]

@MrJoajan yeah its the same with disliking :P

[TheGibsonsarecool]

@foldvariek The stig is better than chuck norris

[MrRandal5000]

I agree about the "US Top Gear." The "UK Top Gear is a must see. The American version is greatly lacking the "Magic."

[minja714]

@MrRandal5000 very well put instead of the usual "american top gear sucks".

[DaBozzzzzzzz]

@Fluwmlock You shouldn't watch so much movies. Please, don't wear socks, Nazis did wear them too.

[lathama]

did they make the dakar?????



[simon44]

@lathama Anyone can do the Dakar. You don't need to qualify I don't think. As far as I know its just a money issue because its like €100,000 minimum to do it.

[ErnieGrahamRally]

@simon44 i think what he means is are they in the dakar. It's going on right now

[Fluwmlock]

Hammond why do you always wear those nazi coats!

[kerod9210]

american version sucks because it has been bought buy ford chevy etc.. bbc is government funded so they are not swayed by corp. monies

[pilotguy191]

Dora

Doea

Dor

[MINN3APOLIS]

UK countryside is beautiful. Hope to go there soon.

[KiwiFXdude]

I have to assume that 45 people accidentally hit the dislike button, surely they meant to hit the like button, right?

[pikkemand50]

top gear is the best pogram ever made 

[PKXkid]

when does top gear air in aus?????



[Tecnica102292]

First of all, no offense. Just respect. Go AMPUTEAM! :)

[Boudu21]

I love topgear, these guys are so class it's tear jerking.

[69charger671]

i want to see May kick Foust's ass in a "UK vs. US" episode

[Carnerd101]

45 people who pressed 'dislike' deserve to be set on fire and their own limbs removed.

[TheK3ZY]

butter

[tacospartan]

wow, seemed like Top Gear was fine with telling everyone who was an ex-Stig and how he wrote a book on it

[Drew23422]

The american version is funnier, suck a cock racist callers and haters. I thought this was a American version, thats why i came here, Rutledge is histarical. Adam is histarical, and Tanner is histarical. So all haters, seriously? American version will make you laugh hard. These British are just annoying. PS: IM BRITISH!

[DDawg45]

@Drew23422 For being British you don't know English very well.

[staggabob]

@Drew23422 They're historical?

[Mr88high]

why is one rim missing?

[RayWillamJohmson]

Gop Tear sucks.

[lysolmax]

I remember seeing this when it came on air :p

[MySkyisClear]

I'm American and I hate America's Top Gear. UK version is wayyy butter. Much more entertaining.

[Thatonethatyouknew]

@MySkyisClear Butter?

[MySkyisClear]

@Thatonethatyouknew Yeah it was an accident.

[MINN3APOLIS]

@MySkyisClear Agreed! Thank god Forza Motorsport 4 chose the UK Top Gear host. They are the best.

[phyphorous]

@MySkyisClear American version is so matter of fact. That's why UK version is so much better. US is too serious and critical.

[TheWeljash]

@MySkyisClear I dont care of course UK version is better!!!

[iwousa]

@MySkyisClear the problem with US version is that it is controlled by some exec wearing a tie.. where the UK is directly influenced by Clarkson and Wilman.

It's like Apple is a child of one man - Jobs and Microsoft is one big corporate mess...

[lllLucky13lll]

@MySkyisClear you act like other Americans like the american version better, I don't know one person who doesn't like the UK version better

[MySkyisClear]

@lllLucky13lll Some of them do.

[nahualito]

OMG!!!! EPIC phrase "Ex Stig" ... man is so cool he is back on the program :) top gear is the best!

[alphaprawns]

@nahualito Lol "Ex Stig" is a hell of a thing to have on your CV isn't it xD

[dezzieokio]

they dont have legs but still go to race? oh fuck i give up... no one can beat those guys

[Drivetraindotcom]

Looks like a lot of fun. Great video

[inigarcia]

Are they racing the Dakar?? I cannot find them in the entry list if they are in a bowler

[The4290]

41 people are LOSER !!!



[pavitjogia]

When will the new series be starting?

[IvoGeits]

Did they made it?

[lab42486]

I like the way Ben Collins Drove, the new stig drifts a little too much for my taste

[rborsibor]

Richard Welcome to my country and the Top Gear team ... here are the men in the Paris-Dakar. I hope you enjoy the journey to Peru. And if the Sahara has its secrets ... cross the Atacama Desert ... with its 4850 meters above sea level, also has them. Good luck to all ... (although we lost a fellow on a motorcycle. Keeping it all, personally Patronelli brothers.

[rborsibor]

Bienvenidos a mi pais Richard y el equipo de Top Gear...aquí se hacen los hombres en el París-Dakar. Espero que que disfrutés el camino hasta Perú. Y si el Sahara tiene sus secretos...cruzar el Desierto de Atacama...con sus 4850 mts sobre el nivel del mar, también los tiene. Suerte para todos...(aunque perdimos a un compatriota, en moto. Seguimos apostando a todos, en lo personal a los hermanos Patronelli.

[HFino]

Does anyone know if they are at the Dakar?

[marciomamachado]

@HFino I think so... look at the banner behind hammond at 0:00

[azapro911]

It was nice to see Top Gear and Ben Collins put aside their differences for a cause that was very important to both sides and far more important than any grubby office politics.

[dynaSXE]

Did these guys make it to the Dakar? I seriously hope so...

[TommyFange]

37 people have no moral at all.

[PANZERMEISTER100]

this could be a movie someday.....great story

[ilpazzo861]

Much respect to these guys, true heroes, true men

[ifba100]

long live our heros <3

[runelink2]

[alexeipastukh]

ребята - герои!

[Bahzad23]

I disliked this video because watching people with missing body parts drive is not my cup of tea....or cup of petrome

[ibbong420]

@Bahzad23 and we all be here to laugh in your face if you ever have this miss fortune, pos

[Bahzad23]

@ibbong420 I never said it was funny, I just said I don't like watching it. Me not liking something and me making fun of somebody are 2 different things. And i'll be right here laughing at your face when ur brain can't process a sentence like a retard---nope wait it's already doing that right now.

[TheGibsonsarecool]

@Bahzad23 you've gotta admit that there brave though

[yaziyo]

Disappointed that they're not the Amputeam

[TheAvi92]

Long Live Top Gear! :D

[ludgidia123]

These man have great spirit !

[smp336]

Tears coming down my eyes, they had to make the video cry

[visu9012]

ossm cool show i love stig



[MCadzkki]

Point your finger on the YouTube logo, then thumbs up this comment. See what happens next.

[tyguyb21]

Good episode, love this show!

[McFearsome2]

"You don't have to stop being you just because of whats happened..."

[nikoman2002]

Outstanding. I hope that one day there will not be a need for things like this, because wars will never be waged again...

[zulguugle]

wow... really wild!

[amedsoprano]

you just don't fire Ben Collins

[HawK271080]

5:07 NICE :D amazing guys

[HawK271080]

[vitoracores]

[123456789Jasson]

They are living life to the fullest. They are bosses!

[TradesBoy]

What a bunch of F*#ken Champions!!!! Keep it up lads.

[maikeru01]

forget a lambo, i want a wildcat.

[LiteJudgemntCFpro]

@mractor43 the black one was Perry Mcarthy Ben Collins is the sack stig the white one but he was changed not so long ago because he wrote an autobiography claiming that he is the stig

[MikeGnar513]

damn, i need some orange juice!

[DvanBavel]

Epic :p

[kanan360]

If i hear myself complaining about anything in my life I will shoot myself, look at these brave men they faced death for us and now they face a challenge only a few can endure. well done best of luck. Happy New Year 2012

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@kanan360 for us ?? but.... we have no challenge... the west is surprisingly comfortable...

[kanan360]

@Crazybenjiwoo I don't know how u translated my comment, they faced death in WAR, and the challenge is dealing with physical status .

The 4 us thing! these men fought this war to keep the world safer for everyone.

the west? where r u from? ok the west comfortable yep they worked for it, but all nations r facing tough times west or east.

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@kanan360 they went to WAR against civilians, the army fell quite quickly ( supirzing seeing as how the british army has quite the fall rate when it comes to war, even when backed by other powers and have a HUG advantage over the home forces ( t-55 vs challngers, ah1z vs mi-8 etc )  They didn't make the world safer, nations in poverty often try to make nuclear weapons in order to have some barter when it comes to litigation with other nations ( see north korea for example )

[kanan360]

@Crazybenjiwoo My comment was for these men, not for the governments, for god sake why are you talking about east west bla bla.

Sorry but I don't care about your replay, all u said has nothing to do with my comment, these guys were sent by NATO I didn't say the NATO did well cause frankly they didn't but yet we can't deny these guys bravery. My comment was and still to support these guys, so plz man relax.

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@kanan360 im from the west also, we didn't work for it, we done our best to work off each other but upto until 1900's, we where constantly raping each others welth, futher more, if it wasn't for WWII, we wouldn't be here but thats a Whole different debate. Yes we in the west are havign a hard time but in the east its 20 times worse, check average wage, crime, rape,genocide and various other statistics, that alone should humble you, These guys are bullet sponges/cannon fodder.End of discussion.

[Danofcanada]

Top Gear or not, how could anyone dislike this? That's just wrong. Brave men all of them, no matter what.

[Drew23422]

@Danofcanada Coz this isnt the american version!!! America FTW!

[egofishable]

@Drew23422 That's pretty racist.

[Drew23422]

@egofishable No, its not racist. Wana know why? American versiion has SOOO much more comedy.

[krakmxer]

@Drew23422 LOL WTF YOU DOIN HERE THEN? PISS OFF WILL YA??

[egofishable]

@Drew23422 It's racist because you disliked something for the fact that it isn't American, stupid.

[ShastyMcNastey]

@Drew23422 The american version sucks..all because of that fat fuck rutledge wood.

[angurisloud]

@ShastyMcNastey wow, let's get personal... 

[phyphorous]

@ShastyMcNastey What?! That's the best one there.

[pipeborrero]

@ShastyMcNastey Also, The americans ego is so big that they don´t accept using a car that isn´t american

[thekillerz12345]

so the other dude is OP cuz he drives with one arm.
