[blotto85]

we are smart monkeys!

[ucmyway]

No Batman, you can't have one...

[NorthWolfs]

Disqualified as a car. Reason: ITS HAS FUCKING JET BOOSTERS

[gamblemadman]

@NorthWolfs But does it qualify as the world fastest land vehicle?

mmm, let me see ... YES!

Reason: It runs on land.

[mrsandman00]

Can someone tell me what this guy is saying when he says "150 in the kimifimblar"

[BrucePartingtonPlans]

@mrsandman00

If you mean at 0:52 I think what Andy Green is saying is "150 looking for min burn", meaning that it's at that point that he is expecting to see the engines starting to burn (i.e. flame becoming visible). You'll note immediately after that he says "nice light together, slightly wriggly" as both engines start to burn.

[JDBEDORE]

bollocks of solid brass!



[RuneFinity44]

ALL that work, yet they recored in 240p?

This shit is faker than the moon landing for god sakes.

[gamblemadman]

@RuneFinity44 You think this is fake?

[acmcook]

@RuneFinity44 this was 14 years ago.... so no digital camera. and it wasn't a massive film studio camera attached to the tail was it... hence the bad quality...

[RuneFinity44]

@acmcook

[envyVIPER]

[o0portal0o]

@envyVIPER Well the British do have a wicked sense of humour...and taste :-)

[sparky577]

absolutely incredible!

[outlawedman]

This red leader checking in.

[salazarj20]

They have obviously never seen my Honda Accord Run. smh

[TheAdamsan1]

Chuck norris could walk faster than this

[RuneFinity44]

I guess he was late for church.

[593OLYMPUS]

@RuneFinity44 - I dont think Andy Green is a bible basher, so no late for church!

[RuneFinity44]

@593OLYMPUS

Fine. Star bucks was closing and he wanted to get there in time

[TheRushour3]

@jalene150

*30

My bad.

[TheRushour3]

@jalene150

It would take less than 3 seconds, LOL.

[jalene150]

Wow 0.04 miles to a gallon. Today's gas prices are too bad for this bad boy. My dreams of driving to school(3 miles away) in less than like 2 min are crushed

[liverpoolceltic77]

it seems like american's just cannot accept defeat in the land speed record, they think there man decades ago was the first man to go super sonic on land, reality check, he was on rails not land, he was the first man to go super sonic yh! but not on land, on rails, which makes it the worlds fastest rollor coaster as his rocket prepelled seat was not touching the floor and it didnt come back in the opposite direction nor was it a vehicle that worked independently or driven,

[JETINDERS]

2 jet in.

[ttoomm1198]

Star Wars!

[l80sman104]

are you guys really talking crap about the guy sounding scared? Really?? He actually had to drive that thing, he wasn't just "in there for the ride". We (Americans) still have yet to beat this thing, quit being jealous assholes.

[elmarko99]

something for british people to be proud of

[Twiztidguy]

sonic boom? happens around 700. Dont think you can hear it while your in the cockpit... atleast im assuming because i heard nothing ^_^ @Reders160

[polized123]

@Twiztidguy sonic boom is a result when a jet emits a lot of sound and compresses the air that results to a cloud

[TheLondonPhoto]

Andy Green, the bravest man on earth! If the video looks intense then I'm sure inside the cockpit would be 20 times more intense!! This is great British technology at it's best.

[malfunctioningbang]

Welcome to Star Wars!!!

Even R2D2 sounded scared lol

[AvM1AvNe]

@malfunctioningbang

[NoahLDiamond]

He was terrified.

[digireedoo]

@NoahLDiamond He's a Tornado pilot, and a damn good one. They tend to have a bit of spare capacity when things get a bit busy. He wasn't scared. You try being accelerated to that speed on a desert surface without sounding a little different to normal.

[DesertRavenXIII]

So calm, wow

[msonic98]

i wanna see it race a jet

[scythelord]

vapor has nothing to do with breaking the sound barrier, only pressure change.

[blackArt2000]

UK RULES!

[SPEEDER243]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!

[adam168522]

the guy sounded scared lmao

[journeylive]

@adam168522 well put ur ass in that car and see how u sound..............

[negie78000]

@adam168522 i would be to imagine if you crashed at that speed xD

[Coolestbj]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

[RUSS1AN]

Damn...that looks intense.
