@@ffagilar2245 That could work, but that would be VERY dangerous. If you were on a motorway that was a bit crowded for example, reversing off it has a high chance of causing an accident.

That's definitely nto something that's gonna want to be done by someone who's only just passed their driving test. So it actually is better to have a ramp at the front.
I believe, his crash with rocket-powered car on top Gear was and is the most Popular his crash and therefore I believe Amazon tried to be on top in the list of his crashes too:D that most probably went right, or not?

The first one was really impressive. Imagine having those going down all of the motorways, and having planes flying above the motorways to fill them up. That would be awesome.
Planes? Now that is even more dangerous bruh. Honestly though they should add the last one into the Motorsport races. Although it is kind of cheating since someone else is driving and also it will take up the entire track.
The Octavia was my brothers daily car. 4x4 with cream leather, it was immaculate! He part exchanged it for a Ford Galaxy and 3 months later it was on TV!
This reminds me off the Bond Car gizmos in Top Gear. They had this oil slick and flame thrower in the back and Hammond got a little bit too excited and blew himself up.
Lets be honest with the first one, the moment I saw the finger, I knew that was going to end up pretty badly hahahahahaha but the last one was really impressive!
It can be done very easily, if the vehicle goes up on fuel vehicle like the recovery vehicle, fills up the fuel of choice and there it goes. Yes the last trick they did but with better vehicle
No no, this is actually something quite ingenious. Of course not for replacing stations, but think about this: you're travelling, you didn't stop for refueling and now you have to push your car all the way to the next gas station. But you don't have to do it if you can search the nearest gas station, get the phone number and ask for assistance, so they send you a truck to refill your dry car so you can start again
@@ipodhty yes, but with a jerry can you can refuel one car, then go back, refuel it and go refuel another guy. With this you can cut down in half the number of gas stations and refuel a lot of people along the way
This stuff actually exists in real life😂😂😂 They used it for the WR for the longest drift in the world where they had to refuel in the middle of driving
James May and that finger with Richard Hammond's facial expressions after hearing his window cracking & the pump breaking away with an explosion. PRICELESS. This is why I love this show🤣
After long journeys, you would want a long break anyway. On extreme cases: a good night's sleep. Besides, recharging times are picking up speed, with some vehicles as little as half an hour.
Sadly the airfield where this was filmed has now been turned into the uk’s biggest car park. The historic aircraft housed at the site are forced onto two small patches of land adjacent to the site and others will be scrapped :(
Would this work for Richard in an electric car?
no

Don't worry , this car has been scrapped , they are using scrap car to take video
Ngl, the last bit was actually impressive
the acrobat thingy would've worked too if they had just thought about ejecting the first guy safely.
Apparently driving onto and off of a ramp at speed is one of those things that looks really tricky, but is actually surprisingly easy.
When the front ramp went down, I fully expected the whole thing to pole vault into oblivion.
@@earthknight60 what if the ramp was on both sides. Drive on back off

Alternatively, it could be for battery swap. Assuming the batteries are swappable, that is.

@@TraustiGeir There's been some efforts by NIO to make batteries hotswappable, Tesla prefers rapid charging.

Also, it's too wide for normal roads, i suppose.

Total success!not that many people were injured or killed in the process 👌👍
This reminds me off the Bond Car gizmos in Top Gear. They had this oil slick and flame thrower in the back and Hammond got a little bit too excited and blew himself up.
The fact that this worked as long as it did is a miracle for these guys.
Can't imagine how it would have felt if they used "No Time For Caution" when refueling
The last try just worked perfectly
I'm impressed!
This’d actually work with self-driving systems (on board the filler truck) and laser guidance, and would be great for average elapsed speed trials.
This is why this trio is the best
That first one is the most Thunderbirds thing ever
