.BEN COLLINS is The STIG - The Stig is the name given to the racing driver character on the BBC Television show Top Gear. In the show he is cast as a mysterious "Tame Racing Driver". He is credited alongside Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May as a presenter in the end credits.

The Stig's primary functions on the show are to post Power Lap times in various cars around the Top Gear Test Track in Dunsfold Park, and to train each week's celebrity guest in setting a lap time in the "Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car" feature on the show. In addition, The Stig carries out other driving and personal appearance duties when the need arises. The Stig has also appeared on some of Clarkson's motoring specials, such as Heaven and Hell, Supercar Showdown, Thriller, and Duel.

The original Stig actor, Perry McCarthy revealed his identity in his autobiography. in 2002. In 2003 his character, the 'Black Stig', was killed off, and replaced with the 'White Stig'. The BBC have refused to disclose the current Stig's identity, attempting to gain an injunction against the publication of the autobiography of the White Stig actor, who, in several newspapers, was named as Ben Collins, based on Collins' company records.[6][7] His identity, as Ben Collins, was confirmed on 1 September 2010.

Some say that he's just another forgettable F3 driver, and that his thirst for fame cost us a lovable television character. All we know is, that he's a big douche bag.

[WHYDONTYOUSUKONTHIS]

thumbs up if you prefered the stig when you didnt know who he was

[1337trollx]

[mrkongsimr]

I would never buy his trash book, I like Top Gear , I don't like this person.

DON'T BUY HIS STUPIT BOOK

[nanitexz]

[flare66966]

@WHYDONTYOUSUKONTHIS but we still don't know who he is. they have the new stig, unless i have been watching old reruns and didn't know it but the new stig drove the aventador.

@AppleTVchannel What would you do if you were him ? Could you keep it a secret, although it would've cost you your personality and fame as the man you were, all for saving a character and sell the show of twoo old farts and a hamster's ?

Traitor!!

Is anyone that surprised? Die hard fans should have been wise to it. He was their guest driver on multiple episodes including catching the sky diver in a car and racing the off road mountain boarder. He is always their guest skilled driver when the guest driver wasn't the main feature of the clip.

it shouldnt matter who is behind the mask. the stig is a character not a super special driver. it could be anyone of the same height build in there that is good at driving and you would never even know

[loje777]

The man is brilliant... very talented driver... shut the hell up!!

@tdsviper

Stop being an idiot, he get paid less than 10% of James/Richard/Jeremy's income, for this big a show it's pathetic.

I am sure they are paying the new stig way more to pervert this.
