Nobody should feel personally offended when something you had nothing to do with anyway gets criticized, merely because the person doing the critiquing is from another country. (you could've easily been born in another country) The offended people are the only stupid ones. Most people in the world didn't have anything to do with how their country is how it is.

That's actually how you Americans talk
Eye glasses LOL
Americans get defensive quick but aren’t clever enough to actually be funny about it
It's funny because i live in the US and yet Jeremy clarkson understands the cultures here more than 90% of Americans being that he has visited most parts of the US being with top gear and grand tour.
They have the arrogance to call liquid as gas 🙏🙏🤣🤣
You don't genuinely believe saying "gas" instead of "gasoline" is arrogant right? I really hope you don't for your sake, otherwise you must be a difficult person to be around.
As an American I can agree
This man is the only man allowed to slander the USA cause he makes it hilarious
Nah, it's fair game for everyone really
Literally everyone who isn't American makes fun of Americans, but then again I'm not sure Americans realise that there are people outside of the US.
Mate you haven’t heard half the things we call you like fat people with big guns
@@chillout1996 quiet, our average is your A
@@A1X7Z what are you on about
Shoulder - Service road
Elevator - Lift
Security Guard - Watch man
Intersection - Junction
As an American... he's not wrong.
Gas is the thing which comes out ur back….they call a dinosaur’s remains ‘fart’
Anytime I see this clip I know there'll be commenters thinkin they're soo clever either cause they know gas is short for gasoline or that its actually a gas when it enters the cylinder so let me spell it out for yall....
ITS. A. JOKE.
That's actually a good point I hadn't thought of.
Honestly I just want to know where they got the crosswalk lights,
Never seen that in my life.
What are you on about?
@@SIRKlLLALOT This whole conversation he had was about american's dumb english only word based walk/dont walk lights. I've been to I think 7 states now and they've all been the same: Red hand, White walking dude. Stop, walk. Never seen crosswalk lights with words instead of pictures. It's still a funny clip, it just makes no sense.
I love when he says “everywhere else in the world”. He actually hasn’t a single clue about the entire Europe mocking Brits as they do with Americans
@@Justthemonly sure, in your dreams. Especially now with Brexit your comment is just pointless lol
Europe is in no position to mock anybody. Except the Nordic countries, they got it all going well for them.
For what?
@@michiferrucci it’s just not though. He’s not wrong
Why do millions of Europeans move here and bring their entire families with them? Answer: it is better than living in Europe. Open your eyes buddy
When did this show exist lol
Nobody should feel personally offended when something you had nothing to do with anyway gets criticized, merely because the person doing the critiquing is from another country. (you could've easily been born in another country) The offended people are the only stupid ones. Most people in the world didn't have anything to do with how their country is how it is. Most people didn't design the computer. Anyone can criticize it. It doesn't mean anyone's criticizing the country its from. The title says Jeremy's poking fun at Americans. That's just to get clicks. He's obviously only poking fun at the ones who were responsible for marketing these things this way to the American people. It was obviously never going to be a problem for Americans themselves to not go along with them. It makes no significant difference. But you can still point it out for a laugh. lol
I replied someone's comment with this video because they said "The signals are bad. Instead for a red "ball" as stop, it should be a red arrow." Like bruh does this mans know what red and green means?!?!
Look at old cars, a trunk was quite literally a trunk bolted to the back end of the car. And why do Brits call fenders wings? A bonnet is a hat, and where does he think we got our language in the first place.
A bonnet is at the front of a car, wings because they are on the SIDE of a car. And you took most of our language and changed words that made sense, and made them stupid things that DON’T make sense
@@imblxze463 like what exactly, and for the record, our signs don't say "DON'T WALK", it's a red hand, he must be looking at old stuff, 'cause he's old. Why call the trunk a boot? Like I said, a trunk was quite literally a trunk, that's why we call it that.
That sucks, big F for America, I kinda feel bad for them now if they actually think that bro 😂😂😂
zizwop it was before yes ok, but we call it a boot, because a boot goes where? On the bottom of your body, where’s a boot on a car, on the bottom of the car dipshit, and you seem to be claiming that cars are older than elephants, not too good for you bud. And I also never said about the ‘DON’T WALK’ bit, but what about everything else? They aren’t symbols are they? For example no parking zones, they say ‘NO PARKING’ instead of a symbol.
@@imblxze463 A P with a line through it? Not exactly a symbol, but it's close. The whole crux of this has nothing to do with what we call stuff and what you call stuff, it's that Clarkson is a wanker, and he says that shit because he likes being a wanker, it makes him popular.
