They didn't even get close to the North Pole. They got to the 1996 magnetic north, but they this was filmed in 2007. The 2007 magnetic north was 150 miles away since it does change every decade. They were 1200 miles away from the geographic north pole.
Also they didn't make it to the North Pole. They made it to the 1996 Magnetic North Pole which was about 150 miles away from the 2007 North Pole and 1200 miles from the true North Pole. When Jeremy says "We are the most Northern people in the world" he's incredibly wrong.
@@Chris-lr2qb But the magnetic north pole was what they said they were aiming for anyway, they never claimed to aim for the actual north pole. Also, all vehicles made it. The backup truck was the one they physically drove across the "finish" in the film, but you can still see the one they drove up until that point in the background in the final shots, as did the black pickup for the camera crew. And the other camera vehicle that followed Hammond got up there as well.
@@ChaosZero. It's not that amazing the cars that are designed for it made it, especially when they had two world class engineers with them on hand as well as million of pounds of BBC money. It's more surprising crusty Jeremy and James made it, they're not exactly pushing 30 with healthy lifestyles. That's more impressive to me that they got the medical clear to even do this.
It's funny to watch... ...but you have to realize that two overweight, untrained and mostly uncooperative men (one of which didn't even want to go) made it to the North Pole. A hundred years ago people using the best technology of the time, with years of physical and mental training and preparation, would fail and die on the same trip.
I love the way James was showing his anger in such gentleman way.
“I am unspeakably outraged with You”
“Seat the pole! ♠️”
Jeremy doing manual labor is truly something to behold
What do you mean you haven't seen clarksons farm yet?
"Hammond. May. Bad luck..."
It sounds like he's just dropped his coffee when he's crushing a man's soul.
Top 3 best lines in old Top Gear.
"Princess Diana had one of these" might be #1
The first person ever to go to the North Pole… who didn’t want to be there.

Close enough lol 😂
@@ejkk9513 Fair play to them either way, but did they ever try driving around Crewe?
Richard the real mvp😃 James and Jeremy wouldnt last riding that sled
the dogs wouldnt last jeremy
This is brilliant.
But i like this:
Unseen footage, bloopers, random conversations etc.
GREAT SUCCESS
One of the most beautiful shots in the show’s whole run is this. The sunlight looks almost alien 6:00
These were the real OG's of Top Gear. The show was never the same after them 😢
5:35 i do james' dance here when im excited
When period cramps
"you can't build a tent by shouting"
Yay! A part 2 to the Challenge!! Please keep doing this guys!!!
"Bad Luck" 😂🤣
been waiting for this!
Ah good got the continuation too
1:30 The amount of times I've used this in real life is worrying.
Surprised no one mentioned that it was the backup vehicle that made it. The original failed.
It's all about male ego. Of course they didn't mention this.
Also they didn't make it to the North Pole.

It's also a TV show made for entertainment. It's not like you're watching an educational NatGeo special and finding out they faked it

So glad I still have the original showings of this and Vietnam saved to my PC...
The first real classic :D
If you pause at 10:34 u can see the backup car (which actually made it) cause jeremy had to destroy the real one with his driving
it's the most wonderfull time of the year
More of this and less clip compilations please.
Team Dog 😂😂
Is this a reupload?
2:45 its like 3-year olds fighting
8:54 de_survivor lol

I wasn't the first to arrive but as you can see, i have done this properly.
That’s what she said
y these guys destroying car's always
Complete reckless abandon by Jeremy and James
Circle in sand abba
I hate these cuts, butchering the show
Clarkson punched someone for not being able to get a hot meal at the end of a shoot at a hotel
