There's a simple escape though. You just have to have a watch with an adjustable timer dial and turn it to something random and James shuts up out of sheer surprise.
I originally clicked on this video with the intention of watching five or ten minutes but became absolutely hypnotized by this wonderful man and watched the entire thing.
This is actually priceless. Reaffirming my views and some tons of laughs. Keep up the good work James. Your reassembler show. Our great ideas series. It never ends. But this should be required reading in modern times. There’s a show name for this. Required Reading by James May. Common sense is hard to come by..
I really enjoyed his Man Lab and Toy Stories series too. I think he is unmissable for anyone that likes engineering, or simply thinking about how stuff works, general philosophy and zero political correctness.
Did you guys know that there's a mod that consists of the sat nav with MR. SLOWLY guiding you towards your destination? Both in ETS2 AND AT! It's " The Grand Tour sat nav" or "GPS" or whatever on the mod webpage of your choice
I'm now in the middle teens and I want to stock up my general Knowledge. This Video is perfect to do this. Keep doing this, I enjoyed the three quarters, that it took my lamp to get bright.
I’m not sure how serious your comment is but if you are in fact serious about knowing more useless things look up a show called QI (pronounced que eye.)
Such an insightful and intelligent and interesting guy. I like Clarkson for his straight up opinions. James is the silky version of Jeremy. Kind of, the old days, I might be talking arse, but those days simpler. I'm a 70's kid as well. I still think I have the record for longest jump downhill back in 77, crazy times
i do not have a telly because my living room is quite small so instead i use my laptop on a folding arm. it means i have all my needs for communication and entertainment within arms reach. i can also record 2 channels at once as i do not watch live telly so that i can skip the commercials. this has served me well for the last 10 to 15 years
The sat nav part really reminded me of this: "General, you are listening to a machine. Do the world a favor and don't act like one." -- Dr. Stephen Falken, "WarGames" (1983)
Captain Sense of Direction lecturing me about using a nav 😂 To be fair I often feel guilty that I have no idea how to drive anywhere without my nav but at the same time I’m not willing to brush up on my map reading skills
The reason everyone enjoys listening to James, is because we know he is right in many respects and shares many of the same views we have, that many people are too timid to admit. So we all get a little enjoyment of knowing there's other people who also posses common sense.
Well said Mr May, all cars should have a compass as one of the main instruments. I usually have the satnav (if I use it) as North up. So I know which direction I'm travelling
This has been helping me relax and decompress at night. My insomnia is awful and keeps me up for days on end, but this as well as part 2 has helped immensely. Thank you so much
I’m Scottish but live in Australia, one of the first things I did when I got here was to make a large boomerang.....I made it out of a limb from a blue gum that had the right bend and had been downed by a storm the year before so it was perfectly dried for the job. I stuck it through my bandsaw ( I’m a carpenter by trade, so have all the tools needed) and belt sanded it to the appropriate aerodynamic shape. I then took it out to our paddock and threw it with all my might , it soared beautifully while all the while making a graceful turn to the left....my heart leapt with sheer joy at the sight and it seemed like an age before it returned in a perfect circle like an Exocet missile and nearly took my fucking head off (which it would have if I hadn’t dived to the floor) and smashed through the side window of my car. Being made of hard wood with a length of 750 mm it weighed well over a kilo, so it’s no wonder the aboriginals used to kill large marsupials with these deadly bastards. Moral of the story.....don’t fuck around making stuff with which you have no clue about.
I believe I would very much enjoy a beer with James. Hammond would be too wired up, Jeremy would be like entertaining a bunch of teenagers/stockbrokers. James is a relaxing, knowledgeable fellow.
God, i just want to sit down and listen to James speak about whatever he wants. I GENUINELY would be interested in hearing about unrelated 1950's locomotive cabin paint types used in Scotland or something simmilar.

Ooooooo, it's like krptonite. GET IT IN THE RIGHT POSITION!

This has been an excellent expenditure of forty-five minutes of my life. I regret nothing and appreciate everything.
In which case, you are probably an idiot, because there is nothing of any substance here.
Coming from the cheap ripoff of "Content Cop", that's a bit rich.
EpicRob time well spent
you have a single fact to back that up

Nobody asked for this.... yet nobody’s complaining

That's fucking awesome.
Spencer Bell Clarkson probably is
I would complain about the shoddy greenscreen work, so distracting when someone is speaking with a green halo around them.

Vatt'ghern same, I just needed something to roll a joint to. But damn it holds a calm grasp like the Joy Of Painting.
just dont tell Jeremy Clarkson
Still better than new Top Gear
Have you even seen GT? They still do challenges and have fun. I don't see how you think it's bad lol
@@Deleralia new top gear is not grand tour.
@@Deleralia lol you don't know the difference between The Grand Tour and the new Top Gear.
The new Top Gear = 😔
The Grand Tour = 🤩👍🏼👍🏼
Deleralia I wasn’t talking about GT. That show is fantastic. New Top Gear with the different presenters is terrible.
Imagine being James’ son. “Dad, can I have the salt plz?” “Here you are....speaking of salt.......” 45mins past.....
My dad is like this and it's the best shit ever
That´s a good dad. I would have loved a dad like that myself.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
MAY* I have the salt
Dope OrNot he’d probably tick him off for not using the correct terminology of sodium chloride
podcast, podcast, podcast, podcast, podcast, podcast
James would be a good mate to have on a long car ride. His story telling would either make the time go by or you would crash from the laughter.
agreed get on it amazon or drivetribe or something
Amen to this. I don't wanna sit and watch videos, I wanna listen to James May on the go.
James may doesn't need background music.
Background music needs him
The music is purely complementary however, it should have been toned down slightly.
What background music? You mean the foreground music with the background James May?
Stylazation I dunnoooooo he might
And far too loud. Sometimes hard to hear what he’s saying
Man, I can listen May for hours! He's a very smooth story teller with a subtle sense of humor.
I love these. I can listen to James mutter for hours. And I actually love his shirts. I would love an evening drinking at the pub with this guy.
James May is one of my five people in the world, living, whom I would love to spend serious time in a pub with, I agree with you completely.
Me too. We should form a organisation of "wanting to drink with May in the pub society"
Agreed!
oh! Christ, of course.
You people are at best, very strange, and most likely require some serious attention from your nearest local mental health care provider.
I could listen to James for hours
James complaining about sat nav when he has the worst sense of direction in the world
True ;)
Good job. You completely missed the point he was trying to make
You know his lack of sense of direction is grossly exaggerated on Top Gear and TGT
james fisher a joke is funnier when you don't have to explain it
If you believe the script...but it's always a script...you know that, right?
I would listen to this all day every day.
Richard Albert well, your in luck because part 2 is now up!
Top Job James, I always knew he was the brains of the trio, when he finally gets a word in edge-ways.
Traffic Lights in Italy.. Cracked me up
When?

James may has joined the chat
Jeremy Clarkson has left the chat
richard hammond mute the conversation
The Stig mic not detected
I could listen to James May talk for hours.
Ironically, listening to James May makes me want to potter around in a shed, doing little jobs and drinking tea whilst listening to James May!
When james made his barcode noises my dog started barking
peanutbuttereggdirt1 it scared me too
Congratulations, your dog understands barcode!
mine too even though i dont have one
FargaDuff Talentlaust An underrated comment
so you're saying barcode is actually barkcode ?
Says the man that lost a race against a pigeon because he went to the wrong address in Mansfield.
But he got to Mansfield!
I live in Mansfield and av never seen James may
This is great for Euro Truck 2 background sound
Donguk Shin agreed😂
Ah one of my fellow truckers....will give this a go👍
Oh my god I didn't think about that you're right
Same sort of thing but Elite Dangerous over here.

James May. The man who can both be the most interesting, and the most boring person ever, depending who you ask.
For me, he is the former.
I could listen to James May talk about anything for hours and hours.
I could really listen to James May talking about stuff all day 😍
I'm now in the middle teens and I want to stock up my general Knowledge. This Video is perfect to do this. Keep doing this, I enjoyed the three quarters, that it took my lamp to get bright.
Switch to LED light bulbs and you won't have to wait. ;-)

I love this. I usually have an hour drive to get to work and these are making me look forward to them, it’s so interesting listening to James May..
James May National Treasure

This is the best thing on youtube
Was having trouble sleeping. Thanks!
how dare you
glad i bookmarked this link
Stun, me too!
I'd love a James May weekly Podcast!
this got me to sleep real quick after a bout of insomnia, thanks james
Could listen to this all day. May is brilliant.
Spending a day with James May would just be so interesting
That was one of the most entertaining 45 minutes of this year
This is immensely entertaining.
Best 45 minutes of my life. Please keep doing this. I could listen to James all day. 👍
Amazing man, deep philosophical insights and vast general knowledge. I'd listen to this on a long trip and never get bored.
this is Clarksons' favourite channel
Helps him sleep
James May is my spirit animal
Can you imagine what May’s show & tell would have been like at school!?
We love you Aunty May.
James May should start a podcast, I'd like to listen to that.
Such an insightful and intelligent and interesting guy.

James May is an underappreciated national treasure.
I just know I'm gonna love this.
I like his shirts.
I want to say; Yes dad... every few minutes.
I could go on forever listening to May. Next best thing after a George Carlin audio.
It's 6 am and I've been up all night this is calming.
i do not have a telly because my living room is quite small so instead i use my laptop on a folding arm. it means i have all my needs for communication and entertainment within arms reach. i can also record 2 channels at once as i do not watch live telly so that i can skip the commercials. this has served me well for the last 10 to 15 years

Gotta love a rant from James.
Love the T-Shirt May
I think the kindest thing to say is James you have a very interesting way of looking at the world and it’s vastly entertaining thank you
I was literally trying to find a video of just James may talking and someone made me the happiest man alive rn
Is it weird that I put this on to fall asleep too?
ASMR M8
James May + weed = the BEST sleeping pill ever
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Please do more!
James May - legend!
This man is the greatest philosopher of my time.
I would like to see Clarkson do those automated checkouts.
I think they might end up getting vandalised pretty quickly...
did i really just spend nearly an hour watching this? yes i did. do i regret it? not a chance. :)
Captain Sense of Direction lecturing me about using a nav 😂 To be fair I often feel guilty that I have no idea how to drive anywhere without my nav but at the same time I’m not willing to brush up on my map reading skills

*Jeremy Clarkson has been removed from the server due to inactivity.*
Speaking in barcodes had me dying. 🤣🤣🤣
Please make more of these.

Trying to get to sleep after night shift, thank you James was out like a light
This cured my depression
James has a lovely voice. I could listen to him for ages.
'Another thing that would be quite interesting...'
Just found these videos and watching them for the first time - it's me but without the aspergers! Way to go young James!
James mimicked Clarkson's voice really well
