cant stop laughing "Act your age, get a car"
I did a skid!!!
Good ol' top gear
Its true
Work harder, get a car
Way too expensive
“Where is the cyclist”
“Mangled at the end”

Still working.
To be fair, Jeremy is an unwitting advert for cycling all by himself. Every time I look at the man, I have the immediate motivation to go out and exercise.
Excersise by running or lifting weights, not taking up road space on your idiotic victorian toy
@@AverageAlien maniac.
@@franzclammer1931 what are you a puegout driver
@@AverageAlien who takes up more road space, cars or cyclists? Utterly without brain, you.
@@AverageAlien actually cycling takes up less road space you nut
Clarkson was perfect for this show cos he has the brain of a 14 year old boy but the old rickety body of a pensioner
markdelej the most accurate and well sourced information of Jeremy Clarkson in one RUclips comment!!
And the budget of BBC.

14 year olds aren't brilliantly funny tho

All is well. Sorry for my tone.
I love how they kept all the tags on their helmets and clothes.. probably so they can return them
Fr I was dying the whole time because of that 💀
I don't know what the joke actually is, but they do that in lots of different films
@@mclarenrob2it's just a running gag in top gear
@@mclarenrob2I think it’s a joke on BBC’s lack of funding?

“Are women’s bottoms different from men’s bottoms?” “I think so”
And the debate continues in 2019 lol.
There's people who think the Earth is flat too....
Karina Peters yeah boys arses are smaller and tighter
Feminists say there is no difference. Wait, this just in......new batch of radical feminists says, "Womens bottoms are better and therefore should be in charge of the world".
Women have an in, men have an out...
y'all are so edgy lmao
Lance Armstong - cyclists are untrustworthy. LOL
man could u explain that to me plz? English isnt really my native language. why did he say they spelled it wrong? what is the joke with armSTOng and why is he even on the pic? thank u in advance man!
Tim K I think they just did it to avoid legal problems and just made it part of the joke.
Tim K it’s supposed to be Lance Armstrong
Tim K it’s because he was revealed to be taking illegal drugs to improve his cycling
Thanks man, that's what i wanted to figure out. best of luck to u brother
"Have you ever put toothpaste on your scrotum?"
-Jeremy Clarcson
I know you commented that 6 months ago and this might be a reference I don't get but the C isn't even close to the K.
my bad. i wrote that in a hurry
Evan Forst Was it to "Avoid copyright claims?"
As a matter of fact, yes I have when I was a teenager. ~ James May
Please let use your lavatory because my scrotum is on fire.
When James was turning right Jeremy was genuinely concerned for his friends safety “be careful James “
Had he gone right and been hit by that oncoming bus it would have been his own fault for there was a car ahead of him that was also turning right.
true, just go at the same time as the car so you a have a shield lol @@suminshizzles6951
No joke, James's video sends out his message very well. I feel like it could even win awards.
Its the message thats the problem.
With just a little re-engineering, bicycles would be perfect.
For safety, I'd start with hydraulic disc brakes, a headlight (or maybe even two), and a windshield. Then you might consider adding some doors and more comfortable seats, with seat-belts. Adding two more wheels would greatly improve stability. Of course, that extra weight will make the bicycle even more difficult to peddle than it already is, so you'll want an engine. I suggest a V8. NOW you'll have a bicycle that non-masochists will want to use. Just a suggestion.
Bicycles already have hydraulic disc brakes and lights, half-wit.
***** I guess you don't wear a helmet, either? Because it sounds like you've already suffered significant brain damage.
***** LOL! What a sad tosser.
shaggy Okay. Now take your pills. There's a good wee chap.
I agree
Why were they shocked? What did they expect from Top Gear haha. I was in tears first time i watched this.
hahaha yep, those on the panel got trolled hardcore!
AgentMrX7 If you look the guy on the right was laughing through it. I imagine they did it a few times so that they could look as unimpressed as possible!!
It was scripted lol
Free film music yeah it’s so funny though
scripted to look shocked
1:10 can tell he's trying his hardest not to laugh and take his position of authority serious lol
The "tags on the clothes" gag NEVER gets old :D
Bloody Lance Armstrong, first he fakes the moon landing and now cycling
FulfMubLana and fakes playing the saxophone.
lmao
Man of a thousand jobs. And tricks. And drugs.
Lance Armstrong wasn't the on to do that, the sign clearly said Lance Armstong.
CounterClaws if you listen really carefully, you can hear the joke flying straight over your head
Clarkson is the best of both worlds for me lol the guy is a borderline comedian and loves cars. Those two things happen to be my favorite.
ian8354 ok
+viperz888 ok
+Edward Horsey So does Iron Man rank a close 3rd or something?
***** Yes lol
+Edward Horsey that's why I started watching Top Gear in the first place!
1:11
Chris Boardman is actually holding in his laughter.
James’s film absolutely cracked me up! Oh and did anyone notice that Jeremy’s cyclist clothes still had the tags on? I love these guys!
The pair of them must have known beforehand that their ride was a stunt, so they kept the clothing tags on in order to get a refund. It's a great pity they didn't come across one of their own kind, they wouldn't have been able to get a refund on soiled goods.
Did anyone not notice?
It’s a bit of a running gag that they keep the tags on their clothes (probably also for the refund reason) but I think if it were just for the refund reason, they’d do a better job of hiding them. It also adds to the comedy to see them.
To be honest, I though James' advert was brilliant.
"Be careful James! There is great peril..."
Clarkson is a good man.
@@lowkey1784 funny man
Me you and 695 will get along well my friend
was lookking for this comment xD
I just love how they still have the tags on the helmet and gear because you just know that all of this stuff is going back to the shop hahaha
4:46 jeremy looks absolutely ridiculous and he just couldnt care less, i love it lmao
hahahaha, when Top Gear used to be great, those were the days.
This was season 21 of 22... you confuse me.
CazRaX he means that the new top gear needs to die in a fire
The new top gear doesn't deserve the name top gear, it should be called reverse gear or missed a gear or something.
10/10 Top Queer
666 likes curses the new Top Gear.
James May's advert. Best ever!
1:29 I love the way all 3 faces change as soon as they realise where it's going.
“Goodness gracious great balls of fire!” Lol James is hilarious 😂
price tags still on the cloths lol
JayDee as always, hahaha
Why, it triggers me so much
It's for lease, gonna return it once the shooting is done
It’s cause the bbc are so poor they can’t afford to loose the money on the clothing so they have to return them to get the money back. Like the bbc need enough money they are getting enough from the tv licensing and tax payers money
you want to be able to return it ey
That Lance Armstrong poster though!!!
Don't you mean Lance Armstong?
Ash Holdsworth No.
Aerith G
yes you do. if u dont you're not apprehensive enough , sniff
Bruniastys I really don't understand. I spelt his name correctly so that makes no sense.
Aerith G but THEY spelt it wrong on the poster and that's why we say ARMSTONG poster not armstrong. nevermind
That person who was walking past that looked back at them as soon as Jeremy asked James if he had ever put toothpaste on his testicles was just like “wtf dude” 😂
I watched 10 minutes of Top Gear USA and didn't laugh once. I watch the first 1:11 seconds and die laughing😂🤣😂
The old one or the new one? Cause I like the old one.
"what if we go left?"
me:"nascar style?" /: )
I am always in need of help with small talk. Now at the next awkward moment of silence I can ask people if they ever put toothpaste on their testicles. Thank you
What if you are talking to women?
Sam M TRIGGERED
+Sam M im comfortable remaining uncomfortably awkward around women lol
Sam M Women need not apply!
@Dead - they can apply, but to someone's else's balls...
"act your age get a car" ahahah i'm dead
I really like James' ad...
me too
Jeremy gets an A++ on his video for the music he included.
The meeting and clips are one of my favourite clips from Top Gear. I also remember the 'modern Peugeot driver' episode fondly.
"maniaaaac!" And the multiple crashings 🤣
Truly one of the best segments I have ever seen.
Goodness Gracious great balls of fire haha
Like how they kept the tags on so they could return them :)
Every time I hear “act your age. get a car!” And “work harder. Get a car” I just crease 🤣🤣
1:50
I died laughing
"We are trying to make cycling safer and we thought the best way to do that was to stop people cycling"
Never thought Jeremy Clarkson would sum up my first 2 years of cycling around London at almost 50. Stick to the Left turns, mind the bumps & don't go too far without toilet access - horrendous in Lockdown. Still, its faster than walking, not as polluting as Cars, and there is a certain amount of fun & exhilaration which came as a surprise x
Bro just get a bike with shocks or stand up when there are bumps. There are solutions. You don't have to deal with these issues.
I biked to work for 10 years - not London but another average european big city - and never had any significant issues you mention, other than 4 occurrences of people trying to kill me with their car (different people).
@@realperson9104 Bike with shocks isn't as comfortable as a city bike, your posture is also completely different on such bike.
Get a car /s
@@randoguy7488i mean, you can just get a seat post with shocks on them. lucky me i got a city bike with front and rear springs.
I did something worse than toothpaste displacement.. suffice it to say that I was bored and I found a spray can for relieving joint and muscle pain. I still wince at the thought.
Try not washing your hands well enough after chopping chilli, then taking a slash... you remember to triple wash your hands after that one
On the other hand... it does cause blood to rush to the area ...
Deep heat on the bollocks? that is pure retardation =P
Deepheat 😱😱
Not sure what's more disturbing: the fact that you did that or the fact that you felt the need to tell us about it. lol
"Gentlemen, if you'd like to relax whilst I just insert this in the machine" is just about the most James May sentence ever spoken
One thing that helps with comfortable cycling is having a slightly worn sprung saddle and a gel cover. I have one on my 1975 Raleigh Stowaway and it works a treat. Sitting back is also a good for stopping your crown Jules being pummelled.
They missed the best part
“Cyclists. Red light, green light. Learn the bloody difference” 🤣😂
I think most cyclists are colour blind.
@@simonkevnorris Many just don't want to slow down and have to speed up again
@@illuforce6968
Cars don't either. They're still supposed to obey the law.
@@illuforce6968 shouldn't ride a bike then
@@jorceshaman Its much easier for a car to speed up though.I have no problem speeding up again when I ride but less healthy people will.That's why Utah has a law where cyclists can treat red lights as a yield sign.
Water has never come out my nose so munch until Jeremy put up the poster 🤣🤣🤣
I love how all their bike clothes still have the tags on them!!! 😂😂
1:00
OH I DID A SKID!
*falls over*
Goodness gracious great balls of fire
"We are trying to save cyclists by convincing them not to cycle"
I freakin died XD XD XD XD
4:32 funniest 50 seconds ever
I just noticed the tags on jeremy’s cycling jacket are still intact, he didn’t even bother😂
It's a running gag that's been going for some time - I believe it is meant to imply (according to my half-brother who was an executive at the BBC when this aired) that they have no clue what they are doing (as they are specialist clothes - they'd need to take the label off as with anything else - the fact they haven't implies that they don't know how to use them, and by extension they don't know how to do the activity they are involved in). It's a bit like Jeremy introducing things he doesn't know anything about/doesn't care about as 'something called...'
" ... James was very sympathetic..."
" ... ¡goodness gracious, great balls of fire..!"
" ... with the pain getting worse... I had to make an emergency stop... ¿please, may I use your lavatories? My scrotum is on fire... ¿have you ever put toothpaste on your scrotum..?"
¡¡LOL!! I just love them.
These two are legends.
That was hilarious. Leaving those tags on the cycling gear was a riot 😂 🏷
When Jeremy keeps all the tags on his clothes straight after going straight back to return them
Beautiful bit of cinematography there lads ... "Work harder. Get a car." ... Bloody hell. Haha.
How to keep cycling safe in England? Keep Clarkson and May off of bikes XD.
Better still, keep the loathsome pair off the roads completely and also from our TV screens where they dispense their odious messages of hate.
4:55 killed me 😂😂
I honestly can't see what people wouldn't like about jeremy.
He's absolutely delightful. :')
“He’s a bit of a knob head but I quite like him”
- James May
And his genius holds no bounds
James's ad made me howl with laughter! 😂
I love how they kept the tags on their clothes with full intention of returning them lol
this has to be on of the all time best Top Gear segments
“Where’s the cyclist?“
“Mangled, at the end.”
😂😂😂😂
I love that they’re still wearing the labels for all the clothes :D
4:58 Jerry Lee Lewis 😂😂
James' ad was actually really wholesome though
2:52 watch that guy's face at the crossing when he sees James and Jeremy.
You know you're addicted and severely in love with a show when you cannot watch a minute of it without contemplating the fact that it's all going to end one day. This show's been going strong for 12 years and I really hope they keep it running for another 5 at least because damn will I miss it when it ends. Top Gear
Me And now Jeremy goes and fucks it up for them all.
YoloMcSwaggins I swear the news hit me like a ton of bricks. Sad. But I guess the end was coming anyway, it's just sad to see it end in such a way.
Well topgear lives on as grand tour the only sad thing is the stig didn't join the trio
man you jynxed it so bad ahahah
@@pedropereira6888the grand tour is pretty much this show
4:40 "And James May makes grimaces"..........
"I did a skid" absolutely sends me everytime 😭😭😭
As a dutchman I almost cried when I saw them on a bicycle
the best of Jeremy Clarkson...
I like how clarkson never took the tags of his bike clothes. Implying he’s gonna return them as soon as he’s finished filming.
1:21 That's gold Jerry, GOLD!
“Mangled at the end” 😂
Is the James May Bicycle Maintenance video available anywhere?
"Where is the cyclist?"
"Mangled at the end" 😂
5:08 xD Best Part!
While that advert had a bad message, it was actually a cool advert.
I love my bike, but I also adore Clarkson, May and Hammond. Despite our addiction to cars, we all like to cycle too.
"Wheres the cyclist"?
Well um MaNgLed at the end. XD
“Be careful James” that’s something you will only hear Jeremy clarkson say once
Love details like Clarkson still having the tag on his helmet.
Jezzas face when hes applying his crème lmao
I ride bicycles all my life and it doesn't seem as dangerous as people think. You have a better field of vision than cars and you can hear for traffic better too. When I approach some corners, I'm cautious (with a car) because a someone might pop out from the corner. With bikes you can peek safely. If you "peek" with a car, another might plow into your front. This happens to women all the time, as they are shorter and need to inch up more.
To an outsider it seems "scary" when big cars are next to you, but really it isn't. The worse is heavy traffic. But I try to take minor streets.
BTW. I also have a car. So I know both worlds.
Is this satire?
@@pw7010 no dude. Women are really more accident prone, traditionally seat too far forward and nose on steering wheel and tunnel vision. Now they all drive whilst on social media, phone on lap, pull up at some lights, a junction, a traffic jam......play on phone.
@@richardburns5925 where is your proof?
@@cornishalps9870 proof is......look in a car dude, glad you've got in touch, only yesterday, I was walking home with the dog, saw a black vauxhall zafira coming towards me driven by a lass with her head totally bowed staring at her lap, literally traveling down the road with her head bent forward eyes down into her lap, I knew straight away, as she passed me I quickly looked in to her car, looking at the phone on her knee! I see it all the time, if it's a young woman, always on the phone, the phone is always on the knee, if it's an older woman, seat too far forward and nose on steering wheel. I'm on a job in Sheffield city centre, high up, I can see straight down and in to vehicles coming up to and stopping at a set of traffic lights. Even the woman that drives the free connect city centre bus plays on her phone at every opportunity, the men don't!
@@richardburns5925 ah yes, very wide range of data and totally not affected by personal bias.
The reason why this trio is irreplaceable 😂😂😂
The tags are still attached to Clarkson's jacket and helmet! He didn't even bother to take them off cuz he knows he'll return them anyway lmao
My ribs are hurting bad, I've laughed so hard I'm in tears too
"I nearly hit that bloke in the face" makes me laugh every time I watch this.
Uh, why?
@@Ardass486 its funny.
"Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!"
Why is no one addressing that there is a lot of window reflection on the TV? Is it not bothering you?
4:00 should’ve said “IN THE PULMS!” 😂
lol their PSA's were hilarious. #topgear is the best
'Try to cycle around London safely'
Me: Those words dont go together
Jeremys face when he's lubing his bottom is hilarious haha
I used to work at the park James filmed his advert and I’ve only just realised how often I’ve driven on the roads they cycled down and that right turn they took behind the van is a nightmare. I was once cut up by a Ferrari trying to use that junction
