A 100 mph head on crash test between 2 modern era sedans would be epic
Like a Astra and a Clubman?
@@Lucario0007i guess
both would be gone, unrecognisable
Fifth gear: great at picking unsettling music before crashes.
It's not speed that kills you, it's coming down from 60 to 0 in less than a second.
Ahh yes...gotta love them g forces
Yeah because of the high speed - of course the speed kills you!! If you go from 10-0 in less than a second it doesn't kill you!
@MrFrog_ it's not speed it's deceleration and crushing that kills
@18:30 I swear the way these front wheels tuck inward it looks like that poor truck just took a steel toe boot to the family jewels! 😂😂
This particular crash happens to my trucks in snowrunner occasionally. Stupid tree stumps.
Make`s you thankful for the work the ambulance and fire crews do. Can you imagine some of the scenes they get called to? SCARY!
Only if their volunteers.. professionals get payed, it's their job!!.♥️🇬🇧
In 1970 our graduating class was shown actual film of fatal car accidents showing dead and dying victims of horrific car accidents. They used actors playing the lead ups to the accidents and then we were shown the actual resulting carnage. Dead people with their bodies mangled top of their heads gone brains dripping onto the road. The worst were the dying screaming in agony and begging for help with their bodies encased in twisted metal. It was awful we were kids in our teens some fainted one kid passed out and peed his pants others vomited on the floor. The fools thought we wood drive carefully after witnessing that horror. I'm 70 and still see those horrific scenes in my mind.
Not punching the producer helps the longevity of 5th Gear.
Yes, except every single clip here is years old so it wouldn't matter.
There was Top Gear before the 3 idiots though....
Another sad response.
@@AndrewCherry458 yea true but they was the 3 who made top gear actually worth watching and giving everyone a laugh with bit of seriousness(sometimes)compared to the newer series which are not all that good,they should of finished top gear when the got rid of the boys I rekon anyway 👍
To be fair everyone left with him
I liked Vicki Butler when she was younger, it's funny to see that this young presenter's name is probably Jonny, he grew up and matured while hosting the 5 gear program, now he even has his own RUclips channel.
I wished you guys would start putting the original air date in the description. But I still love watching them regardless..🤙🏻
i just go by how old Tiff looks haha
in 2019, the mismatched crash happened to me. i was in my beloved mk2 vw jetta coupe and was sideswiped in the driver door by a ford edge SUV, almost 3 decades newer and more than 2x the weight of mine. it hit directly in my door. intrusion into the cabin was about 18 inches, but i survived. the impact was at 40mph. i had a fracture on my pelvis and scapula and had glass driven into my arm, as it was on the sill of the door, and the window was pushed into my arm by the bumper of the SUV. but, it held up incredibly well considering the discrepancy. 30 years difference, it was a 3 star in 1987, half the weight, and at a fairly good speed impact.
And not only that, but the doors are usually the weakest point of a car. You're lucky. But the 1992 jetta were awesome and very reliable. Sorry for your loss
Jetta coupe????
To be fair, the old Renault Espace was still an old body on chassis structure. The chassis was actually acquired by Renault when they bought out Simca. The chassis was from the early 1970s. Actually, the same chassis originally used on the old Matra Simca Rancho was used on the Renault Espace up to 2003. It may have been a very modern chassis at the time, but 30 years is a long time.
That old BMW sounded like my e46 m3 in the midrange.
Gonna have to get my exhaust sorted 😂
There is tough,there is very tough and then there is that bollard at 18:05, that thing is seriously impressive, that truck wasnt hanging about either.
20:33 - interesting. I was rear ended by a Smart in my mk4 Mondeo and the Smart definitely needed a new windscreen after that!
Good on you good work nobody hurt?
@@user-jn3wr7if1y all ok, as far as I know the Smart was repaired which surprised me, the poor thing did not look good with a smashed windscreen, airbag deployed and a stream of coolant running down the road!
Wow, I would of loved being there for the last 120mph crash and hear all that noise.
The wheel is on the wrong side...! Thanks, keep up your awesomeness and don't forget to compliment someone today...
Please do that focus test with a new 5 star car. Would love to see that. Don’t expect the outcome would be much different.
Yeah, there is just a limit what a human can survive
@@rienkhoek4169 yes, that video is a good reality check for people who like to go real fast.
@nieko3038 I like to go fast. And because it probably doesn't make a difference how safe the car is anyway, I prefer a nimble car with good suspension and brakes to a gigantic "safe" SUV. Because the big SUV is more likely to crash, my preferred type of cars is much safer. I'm just f*cked when an idiot driving a giant SUV crashes into me.
Focus MK1 still safe, no? (at speeds not much above 40 mph)
Crash bang wallop what a video
That man was plastic. But what if he hadn't been..........plastic!
You can make cars as safe as possible, unfortunately idiots then buy & drive them.
Cars don’t kill people, the people driving them do. 😂
I’m no stranger to damaged cars (I repair them on my channel) but that Ford Focus crash is horrific. Thankfully modern cars are a bit safer
Lol modern cars wouldnt do any better crashing into a concrete wall at 120 mph.
The car might, but for the occupants it would be the same. No way a human can survive that deceleration.
Doesn’t matter how much technology you put in a car. The absolute best defence is drivers that pay attention and follow the rules of the road.
If EVERYONE did that all the time, you wouldn’t need all this technology and vehicles and insurance would be much cheaper!
15:30 i love how every single one of those barriers are specifically designed to kill the driver
5th gear is such a good programme
With the car industry changing at a rapid rate over the years, Fifth Gear should've really kept on doing these crash tests. I'd be curious to see how a modern EV copes in a wide scenario of incidents
Better than top gear for sure
you forgot to mention at the ford focus 120 mph crash test that the fuel tank ruptured on impact and would have been a high risk that the car would have caught on fire and passengers having severe burns. i actually saw the fuel tank rupture at 38:20
That's the least of their problems lol.
I don't really think it's matters that it burst in this scenario. In lower speed impacts that could still be survivable it would remain intact. It is literally impossible that a person could survive that impact.
there would have been zero alive people to burn. the rear of the car was almost touching the front. 100% death instantly.
I think in this case it just means you wouldn't have to pay for a cremation.
Next time. Ford Focus on a rocket sled in Alamogordo, NM.
I’m very surprised the Smart’s doors still opened after that collision.
The Volvo 700/900 series is one of Volvo's least safe models. Their structure is very unusual, especially the crumple zone. Volvo 240 and Volvo 850 are much safer.

I can’t believe that zippy got a job as a commentator on fifth gear after leaving rainbow 🌈 😂
Not to mention they use a different method to pull the cars each time, creative!
Next, you can show the biggest cause of death in car crashes: Unconscious people sitting in their seat belts suffocate when their chin is against their chest. Wearing a helmet would also save. This was said by the doctor who investigated the accidents.
At 13:14 the old espace has the numbers MS 43 LUT, is that a romanian car?
We were taught skills to mitigate crashing cars.
Too many loose nuts 🤪 behind steering wheel now
real crash test, car program that used to be real
Tiff, on the first crash: “When this baby hits 88 miles per hour. Your gunna see some serious shi…… oh! Bugger!” (Old Hamlet cigar advert music starts to play)
The saddest thing of all? People adapt to the safety features, the cars are saver, and the drivers? Not ad all
I seem remember when wearing seat belts was mandatory in Australia the death rate went up for a few years because of what you said.
It seems that you can't fix stupid.
My reaction to the crashes in Fifth Gear:
Head-on Crash: Drive responsibly, and don't overspeed like a donkey dummy.
New Car In To Old: When your wallet's fat like a pig, buy the best wheels ever. If you are tight in the budget, continue on driving with the risks. Not all people are lucky to have new wheels anyway.
Bollard Crash: I say one thing - the bollard says: "I will end your career, you terrorists".
Smart Car: Driving any car onto a concrete barrier at high speed makes you more dumber than dead.
Sideswipe: RIP Shogun. Civic, you SUCK.
120mph Crash: Surprisingly horrific. Do it in real life, and you're the dumbest of the driving dead.
old cars are rock solid and modern cars are squishy, how do you mess that up
obviously not. look at the red espace.
I would like to see ahead on with two 2002 volvo V70
I would love to see a modern car against an EV car with the weight of the batteries
Fantastic video.
You obviously weren’t watching this crap then.
What “fantastic video” did you watch?
Sure ain’t this turd.
The fisrt ones had air bags ?
At 2.18 what's that in the middle of the road?. I've zoomed in but still can't make it out
Anyone who knows what the song playing in the background at 35:08 is called?
Went a bit overboard on the naff sound effects, was annoying.
Oh , auf dem Photo Cover Omas 2l Focus ;)))
120km/h Frontaleinschlag
When is the next crash?
A Klasse MB gegen Audi V6 Coupè B3 ist heftig !
A Klasse dann V verpresst.
1:00 Jack Nicholson?
Ive been in 2 accidents with my mitsubishi pajero. Both times i was stationary when drunks in a vw golf and the other drunk in an astra drove head on into me. Both of their cars were demolished while my arb bumper was scatched. No repair to my car was required .4x4 are safer
When will 5th gear crash test again?
I thougth Volvos were as solid as sherman tanks...
not the older ones
Sherman tanks weren’t a good AFV.
Conclusion of this video:
Make more use of your eye-o-meter! 😊
Over 100 mh you will meet God no matter how many stars your car has.
See, this is the bs that makes people believe that less damage after a collision means it was more survivable. So what the purpose of front and rear crumple zones again?
Go try a large truck off of a large cliff into ocean 😃
I hate to see a BMW E34 wrecked. 😢
the Mercedes Benz Smart 1.0 Biturbo I3 2-Dr Micro Mini Hatchback (RHD) . . . only if brilliantly engineered Tridion SafetyCell® by Mercedes Benz could be stretched a bit & used for developing a small 5-Dr Hatchback (RHD) . . . like the OPEL Astra (FF) 1.6 Turbo I4 5-Dr Mini Hatchback (RHD) . . . Honda vehicle bodies has always been flimsy due to the use of thin sheet metal, even until to this date . . . because Honda's aim is to make it's cars fuel efficient & they're fuel efficient, no doubt but at the expense of compromising safety . . . that's how safe Mitsubishi 4WD SUV are . . .
And yet I still reach 280 in mere seconds almost everytime I take it out. 😅. Can't imagine the outcome 😧
Drive fast take chances
Russians road collisions be like:
2:21
Ugh the music would be better just on scene sounds.
I'll never ever will drive my car at 120 miles/our on the German autobahn again 😱🤠
The truck segment has not aged well. Nobody needs a bomb in a truck :(
The lads looked much younger then..she still looks hot ..and of course I still look the same!!.😂😂😂
That's Toast....
Those aren't old cars. Put a car from the sixties or seventies against one of the new ones.
Is this Top Gear?
Some of these tests are just designed for getting views , for example the 4wd into the side of a sedan at 60 mph .
If anything at all T bones you dead centre at 60 mph , you are a done dinner mate ,
Only a few weeks ago we saw on Australian roads two vehicles , have a head on , in this case between a motorcycle and car in which both the drivers where killed , a small solid projectile having a head on , or t boning someone is just as likely to kill the occupants, a small front wheel drive car with an east west engine T boning any sedan in the side which could penetrate right into the cabin.
Any car hit directly in the side at speed aside from a fully barred out race car is likely to be a coffin if hit in the side regardless how big the vehicle is doing the T boning .
The best thing to guarantee your life …… do not be in a high speed accident regardless of what vehicle you are in.
37:12
What in the world is a "dicky ticka"? 😂
A weak heart.
Horrible the vehicles are like a paperbox when it crash!😮
18:08 is a meme
13:35 you can go buy and drive whatever vehicle teat Safest at the time. But you will have to continue to purchase over and over. Somebody is always going to be bigger and stronger than you, not unless you decided that you want to drive a Brinks truck, but with the technology from a Tesla.
If you do not prefer the smooth and slick design that the truck will give you.
Or you might want something that rides a little smoother, and might be a little easier to get into and get out of.
You also might want something easier to park at different places. If you are downtown on Main. A Brinks Truck is not going to be easy to park. So that might be a issue with you.
If so, don’t fret. I have the safest piece of technology for you.
It might cost you anywhere from free, up to countless amounts of money and time.
Understand, that multiple people that are in your family, and people that you care about and love. You will need to have these invest as much of their time as possible, and as much finances between you and or them, as needed, and as as it come up.
This priceless technology that could take the rest of your life and of the others that care about. You are asking, WHAT IS IT. I’m going skip down and not reading all this.
The technology is you and the other people that you love and care about. That is the technology. You may wonder what could cost so much and take so much time.
That is driving training. Not at the local community college, or where it is held. Nope not at your high schoolers, schools.
You will need to have the love of driving, first. If you don’t, then you will not learn as much because you don’t have it in your heart. Then you will look up different racing schools, and different types of racing schools. Each type of racing, has its own dangers and handling characteristics. You must learn how to feel what you are driving, and have a understanding of what the capabilities of the vehicle you are driving.
You have escape routes. So if you feel like you are not going to be able to stop, or you look back and see the driver behind you looking like they might not. Then you know which way, and how far you have to escape from the possible wreck.
An newer vehicle that has a good safety rating, will assist in case a vehicle is still missed. Cars drive fast and cover ground quickly.
Go and be safe out there.
Easy slow down in city to 25mph if you want to get moving go on a race track 250mph if you can? not on the roads.notwellness.
Two car's doing 60 will equal 120
It doesn't.
the so called head on was not a head on it was a 1/4 side impact also if the black car didn't have a roll cage it would look about the same the problem with new cars is they have to have roll cages because the body's fold up like a tin can i want to see a new car crash test thats been made without the roll cage go against an older thicker heavier made car i bet the outcome would be very different soft body jello car without roll cage head to head with stronger car also without roll cage that would show people just how deadly the new cars really are without a factory roll cage
I think you're misunderstanding things. New cars often (that is, the high safety rated ones) have an extremely strong cabin. Also remember that all of the tests here are old (15-20 years); a _lot_ more have happened since. And yes, modern cars seems to crush up like a tin can. That's by design, but not nefariously so. See, when the car crumbles up, it absorbs the energy of the impact, slowing the deceleration down so that you don't get squished inside. In new/modern cars it is often the case that it _looks_ far worse than it actually is.
So this programs doing the stupid editing thing where they show the people talking about something maybe even pointing at it, and we can't see it because you are filming the people
Volvo used to he safest ever 😅
Wanted to watch some good old days episode and you guys made them all unavailable! They were there for everyone to enjoy tiff, vicky and johnny but now, noooooooo sir, they want to get your money! I'm sure that this mighty trio would be against that petty move... Okay , so instead of you benefiting of the ad revenues like you could have done, I'll just get them on good old torrent... Bye!
Volvo v40 should be put to test
Good thing the seat belts were worn or cops would have wrote'm a ticket.
Top Gear copy?
Speed kills.
😮
for the last test, a single car into a wall at 120mph would simulate a head on crash between 2 cars each traveling at 60mph. youd think they could get this right... after all this is a show about cars... (but its no top gear :P)
Not quite, the show is right about the figures, because the wall effectively rebounds the total force the Ford focus impacts it with.
So let's say the focus gives out 3000N of force (not an actual figure) when hitting the wall, then the wall gives back 3000N to conserve total energy.
Wheras if it were 2 cars hitting at 60mph and causing dead standstill, the force each would apply is 1500N to each other. Although the forces of 2 slower cars add up to 1 fast car, their impacts are not interchangeable.
The show is 100% correct, you need to learn some basic physics.
In roblox car smart not damage 💀

All great ideas tireless test and car design improvements has helped many survive but unfortunately it hasn’t helped the English birth rate in your country. Apparently the most common baby name in London now is Mohamed.
Car designers should have run our governments.
17:58 /pol/ meme 🎉
❤
Nothing but a sad echo of what once was with Top Gear and the fellas.
This channel is nothing but a complete and waste of one’s time.
If you're going to write a troll comment at least write something that makes sense lmaoo 😂
Top Gear was a mindless entertainment show for the masses, Fifth Gear was and factual. Totally different.
