      Side impacts are always sketchy.

    That episode felt way more extreme than most of the previous ones, with the crash and the fire and the utter destruction. And watching the crash, it certainly did look much more serious than it actually was. Seeing his head jerk towards the window with no airbag curtains, and seeing his dazed expression when he exited the car, I was so sure he had a concussion and I teared up a bit. I was in a crash while I had my head resting against the window of a chevy spark before my side was rammed by an SUV with a nudge bar. I think I would have either had serious eye injuries with glass in my eyes, or suffered severe head/brain trauma had I not decided to lay my seat back and lie down 10 seconds before we got hit. I remember looking down at the shards of glass all over my lap and chest and just dissasociating, thinking I was in a dream the first few seconds after the crash. It is just such a scary experience.
    However, my bf and I both loved the episode, my boyfriend even more so because he's northern Swedish and was very excited to see them visit. We can't wait for the next!

      Those three have such a great rapport and their personalitys just make the series. The hilarity and the hare brained schemes are just so memorable. I've cried with laughter many time when they were the brilliant Top Gear front men. It went downhill rapidly when the trio walked.

      It reminded me of the donkey part where he fell off of one of them. Then there's the part where he was knocked on the ground by the rope they had tied to the jaaaaaag and the mini and he got a bloody head in the middle east because of it.

    Seeing them drive around the area of my hometown of Tromsø was so cool. And I think A Scandi Flick was one of the best specials yet, I may be a little bit biased, but seeing these awesome cars go rallying was really cool, and James made me appreciate what a beast that EVO really is, Richard choosing the Subaru Petter Solberg won his championship in, and I thought I was crazy at first, but I always thought Jeremy had a good point with the Audi, and he was so right. Thanks for an awesome special
