Skater boy vs Mitsubishi Evo - Top Gear - BBC

[@cer4041]

Some say the rally driver was the stig's book writing cousin

[@user-hi4sm3ig5j]

That kid could honestly say that he beat The Stig on a skateboard.

[@TwentyNinerR]

"Maximising the car's chances is professional racing driver..." *THE STIG*

[@ReginaldAnteel]

You never seem to see Ben and The Stig in the same room..?

[@eleking8456]

We meet again.... 240p....

[@ChrisPMT]

Ben Collins? Cough, cough, stig, cough, cough...

[@endre1989]

Okay, now try the same thing uphill. :)

[@lordsqueak]

Jesus! That car looks like a 90s webpage.

[@supernorskfreak]

90`s? www.arngren.net is a Norwegian online store that shows how bad websites can become! :P

[@xbladedrifter2194]

Ben Collins was the first white Stig!!!!!!

[@benshelley141]

u dont say

[@xbladedrifter2194]

is

[@Barnakos]

Funny because nobody knew Collins was the stig, He was featured as himself in many episodes, so nobody had a clue it could be him... But "Stig Collins" seem more comfortable on tarmac. He

[@ba3cool]

Yeah that's true, I know of an incident where a friend of a friend of mine yelled "How's it going Ben?" At the Stig at the Silverstone F1 GP back in '07, he instinctively turned around. Although James May has stated that there have been at least 4 different Individuals to have played 'The white Stig' over the years, mainly for special occasions. For example, I heard from a reliable source that the Stig who drove the F1 car in the braking challenge.. Was actually a team test driver !

[@Tropicsca]

maybe if they actually started at the same time...and if the evo had rally tires...

[@CAL1MBO]

True

[@badassbikerst]

Not even that, the evo was taking all sorts of turns and avoiding "obstacles" when it could've just went straight down the hill like the bowler.

[@woahm8571]

+Stevin Tran na it couldn't

[@husseinmohamed7750]

true very true

[@terrardwhey281]

or maybe if the race was on tarmac

[@MNGLD-do2kc]

Ben Collins.....BEN COLLINS!!!??? XDXDXD!!!! U GUYS MUST BE MISSIN HIM!!!!!!

[@NoGrip]

andrew you genuis, this was done back in early 2007, when encoding/ uploading wasn't as high res and sized like it is now.

[@whisper263]

Thank You BBC for top quality 240p

[@mrronan777]

best call iv ever heard. PERIOD

[@Stuntman175]

@ThePlanbfan11 No. Schumacher was only the Stig in the episode where they tested the Ferrari Enzo FXX, which is Schumacher personal car. No one else had the permitiion to drive it that fast around the test track. In all the other episodes of previous seasons, Ben Collins was White Stig.

[@mrronan777]

best call ever made, PERIOD!

[@MasterArchfiend]

14 years ago. Wow. I didn't get to do anything close to this awesome back then.

[@lebesta]

That's right. It doesn't matter who he is, what matters is that he's amazing.

[@spookyshark632]

So the Stig vs Brendon Hartley

[@behemothokun]

Oh wow, the Stig lost the first round.

[@thesmithjewelery9753]

It wasn't Stig brah

[@behemothokun]

Mārtiņš Kalējs Ben Collins was the former Stig.

[@twizz420]

Mārtiņš Kalējs Schumacher wasn't the stig. It was a joke. Ben Collins was.

[@TheMisterTibbles]

Mārtiņš Kalējs Ben Collins was revealed to be the Stig at that time. Now, I don't know who is the Stig. It's probably still Collins, it probably isn't. No one knows who today's Stig is.

[@BatCaveOz]

Ahhhh, Ben Collins before he was outed as The Stig.

[@DogeCharger]

"its for his own good" lmao

[@AngelusFromHell]

TopGear is the best show about cars & co.

[@Deep0cean14]

Mountain boarding must be really difficult but even funnier! Just think of the adrenaline that boy feels when he was doing that! I want to try it one of these days :'D

[@MidShipCivic]

The horsepower is regulated by a sanctioning body (dakar rally) but not the torque it can create from 5 liters.

[@alexis.coralde]

when hammond said "a professional racing driver" he was like saying "The Stig"

[@xdashx4962]

He was a skater boy, the Stig said see you later boy

[@brussailles]

The Ben Collins. Against a 16 year old skater.

[@xxstaggerxx]

First time the show the stig unmasked and no one even realizes it! haha!

[@ElijahSamsonWiltonChen]

wow... mountain boarding looks crazy.. props to him

[@ctaylor6794]

When I saw the title i was hoping it would be a collision, not a race. What a disappointment.

[@danielalien]

I'm from Norway, and I've ran out of episodes of Top Gear to watch.

[@CountryBoyDak]

@1993gandy engine mods were changed mivec was added to reduce turbo lag and front bumper is diff and wheels and interior

[@Fox8ball.]

Some say he's been on this show before and that if you call him stig he will dissappear

[@Medeo1]

Wicked paint/decals on the Evo.

[@hlo10786]

I Loved how the Evo slid at 0:45

[@addham82]

BRILLIANT! Try it with a car that is now slower than the previous model year!

[@SandyMcInnesMagicMemories]

Now THAT was wicked!

[@chevygearhead454]

This would make such an awesome chase scene in a movie

[@khenry1991]

Im Texan and i watch Top Gear every day

[@Randolph_]

the kid's got some wicked nerves of steel. being chased by a rally car like that is pretty intimidating, and not to mention disorienting. plus, he sports a nice cargo pants. love to own a pair of those..

[@mzaversnik2655]

Fun fact: the cars were driven by the stig

[@jackel410]

I'm American and watch Top Gear everyday.

[@Regret696]

Thank you very much :)

[@jbonaccorsi]

kids got mad skills, he wasnt even bombing it, he was busting 3s and tricks over shit lol

[@volante8657]

there's a TVR V8 and the chassis is (sort-of) modified from a Defender, the toughest jeep there is except the Willys, which is tough as hell but uncomfortable as well =]

[@3dgar7eandro]

Please make the Mitsubishi back and the Stig to drive them if course😂😂🙌👏👌

[@crashmantan]

Bloody hell quality mate

[@lamboman666]

yea, except for the fact the guys drive like that for a living and actually ARE in control.

[@DrBrickface]

He is such a damn good driver. That speed at which he is correcting...

[@Coptah]

@jackchrisevans The boy initially gets a head start because of the acceleration time of the car. He flies over the start line already going about 20 miles an hour thats when the car sets off.

[@michaelthepsycho]

True. Don't people find it weird where every car that's the center of the show "wins" whatever challenge? Think about it. Who'd want to watch a TV show where they actually have showcase cars performing inferior to the challenge?

[@csqr]

Yup. Ben Collins is the Stig.

[@kkoommnniinnooss]

for of you who dont know it ben collins is the stig

[@Josephtube666]

I know Topgear offically anouched that on the 20/6/09 that The Stig was Michael Schumacher and also that they are getting a new stig soon

[@jakethepeg1066]

ive done a track like that on my mountain bike scary as hell especially them ramps they have a massivelip that shoots you into the air

[@MrTHEBEUGEL]

I love this show because it gives the underdog like the mountain board or parkour not like a head start but like allowing different ways to get there in ways that they might do better. and yes they were kind of a poor looser for the first race but for the size of the board that's soo fast in scale right?

[@zuhutay]

The driver couldn't drive as fast as he wanted, he could endanger the boy's life, lol.

[@BarGerMarMeyer]

in top gear, the unexpected to win also do.

[@MrMayhemrocker]

the Skater boy is riding a thing called mountainboarding should try it!! nice one tom

[@romonecrosby]

i love top gear man

[@SalmanC]

You just took "The Stig" out of his stormtrooper outfit

[@john-danielmartin8753]

Maximizing the cars potential it will be driven by the stig 😂😂😂

[@HalfBreedMix]

Man, I can't believe I'm saying this, but, that boarder is pretty damn cool.

[@dindinduckduck]

Maximizing the car's chances, it's professional racing driver The Lord Stig

[@CaptainBritain12]

thats so sick! and i agree with what laurie said, apparently he owned the bowler but they edited it, it wasnt so bad that they showed the palmair twice, it was a killer grab! and hes a mountainboarder not a 'skater dude'

[@wisdom261]

THE RACING DRIVER WAS THE ACTUAL STIG WITHOUT THE HELMET THO!!!!!!

[@NyCDeViL9010]

Man that yellow thing sounded like a monster!! I'd back down right when I heard that dude rev the engine.

[@aenimoxxx]

yah! nicely done! if im the cameraman, i probably shaky!

[@grandmameise]

the XI? That would be sooo cool... it should be like a combination between the IIIX, the IX, and the X. That would be cool

[@Maharaghi]

@Jay911able Wouldn't make any difference a hill board is still a hill board irrespective of how many times it gets used.

[@Product144]

I dunno if anyone has spotted this yet, but the music has been changed from the original episode. Yeah I've been watching Top Gear for a long time. BBC probably lost the rights, but I mean am I the only one to notice this?

[@13bluepig]

MOUNTAIN BOARDING RULES!

[@esean931]

there are 2 stigs,black and white suit.the guy in white suit is one guy if you notice the driving style.

[@prashantgaikwad2180]

I wanna see Car vs Usan Bolt

[@Septimus_ii]

Bolt does 0 to about 30 mph in a fraction of a second, but didn't get much faster from there. It would need to be a very short race

[@Zonda95a]

anyone else notice that the "professional racing driver " is one of the stigs

[@Deep0cean14]

the second race was really unfair! but the boy was really up to the challenge! he almost won!

[@moyrml]

Some say he lost, and that after the shooting was over he raced against the boy attached to a rocket. All we know is.... he was the Stig!

[@13bluepig]

mountain boarding rules!!! but so does top gear (not as much though).

[@Stuntman175]

@SimtekProductions They couldn't say that he was The Stig at the time because he was still being employed by the BBC. He only revealed his real identity a long time after this video was made.

[@zaibervaireus]

Some offroad tires on the evo please?

[@darkhorsedre]

Nah that bowler was suped-up - reinforced chassis ("withstand a drop on its nose from 40ft") and that engine setup is nuts.. that'll cost!! Its got more power than your average SUV, or even an x5

[@BaddaBigBoom]

CamStudio it and add the sound on after !

[@eaglesm1993]

Сравнили тоже, на эвике гоночные покрыхи, а на джипе шиповка. Поставьте на джип слик и его выкинет с трассы.

[@denLTRLM]

+Олег Дьяченко разве на эво слик?

[@eaglesm1993]

+denLTRLM Я имел в виду по сравнению с джипом) Естественно не слик.

[@yeanahnahyeahnahh7148]

Олег Дьяченко speak fucking english

[@guestVISEU]

he´s the stig, ben collins, even the production let it out when hammond had the accident with the jet

[@ManWithBeard1990]

Some say he still is.

[@menetric12]

What was that one episode when Jezza went to a car meet at night time and there was riced out cars then JC said:"Your car is on fire!" to the racer boy...?

[@creamatedbiscuit4756]

Look up Jeremy clarkson cruise

[@menetric12]

Stormtrooper FN 2187 Gotta look that up

[@CorneliusMoebius]

Top Gear is so great that they can make an expensive program just for fun...They do what we would like to do. Working for pleasure and win money...

[@nanakeyks]

Wow, that boy must have some ballz riding that board directly infront of that Bowler. The driver must have been kegging himself not to hit him too lol! Or was it some kind of SFX?

[@kirbiak90ZX]

Also if it were a nissan skyline, a car thats without a doubt built to drift and with all-wheel drive, it probly would've won possibly. EVO though man-huge respect for that machine.

[@thesolo]

It's in Richard Hammond's accident report from his rocket car crash. Read up, it's available publicly online.

[@braberdebrabel22]

Its an old car but for most part that tvr/bowler v8 gives a lot of torque witch is more handy on havy terain. You will never hit 140 miles + on offroade you just need to get there fast.

[@docbaily]

It's nice to see the stig without his helmet on.

[@bentleyv8t]

OMG! Its the Stig!

[@alexolteanu]

awsome noise at 3:31 briliant

[@ExT1NcT]

Not the new one, no. But he was from the 3rd season of top gear up until series 15.

[@TheMainMan318]

kid at the end: damn i need one of those

[@nowthatscrazy]

@ryanbogaerd james is NOT the stig. jesus. Ben Collins is the white stig. Perry McCarthy was the black stig.

[@Railrodder]

Yes, as reveiled in a Top Gear episode, the 'White Stig' was Michael Schumacher! But, who.... was the 'Black Stig'?
