Would you be able to drive across this bridge? 😬

No

Yes, safest Bridge of all time 10/10

Maybe I would, if Jeremy and Richard weren't driving with me

Stay away from the racist bits i.e. if you not already one.

[@scottdelingerualberta]

Sandwiches are named for the filling: peanut butter sandwiches have peanut butter in them. An incompetence sandwich would, therefore, have the incompetence in the middle. The rest is just bread.

YET.. several Peer reviewed journals, even done by Institutions who would have loved the results to be different showed it to be the second least racistt country on earth. The most racistt? East Asia, Africa, Middle East.

[@rookiechauffeur]

And sometimes it has its own gravitational pull

[@cleverusername9369]

Jeremy often says his genius generates gravity, but in actual fact it generates _momentum_ by combining speed and power. Truly, his genius is frightening.

If you have never had the pleasure of driving an "American Land Yacht", its like driving a couch, on a boat, in a river of gravy. It is damn amazing

1968 Imperial, 21 feet long, factory special with twin four barrels white with blue leather, and a record player under the dash.

[@EvilLordBane]

This reminded me of the bygone era of the massive American Land Yachts. My father had one when I was growing up, before gas hit $1 a gallon. We drove it from our home at the time near Philly PA to Rhode Island to visit a school I wanted to go to at the time (Around 1980). I had just gotten my driver's licenses and I got to drive it for the first time. I was so comfortable, that my mother fell asleep in the back seat, which was made to seat four people in comfort. My father, who was in the passenger seat, also fell asleep due to the comfortable ride and interior. When we got home, I had to wake up the both of them, who where surprised to find out they where in the driveway of our home. I'll never forget that car, it had a Chevy 350 V8, the softest suspension I ever saw in a car, and the worst handling line of any car I've ever driven.

[@vicjones3992]

Whilst that isxa lovely story if you were truly one of us you would have known which model it was and given the smog-era nonsense what the bhp DIN and true were wa

[@EvilLordBane]

@@vicjones3992 It was 40 years ago. I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday, let alone my late father's car from 1980. It might have been a Fleetwood, but I'm not sure, I just don't remember.

@@vicjones3992 lol, who are you?

[@Kenjh71]

@@EvilLordBane ah yes, the classic Chevy Fleetwood 350 with the quadrajet rear seat.

[@manoman0]

We had one as well. It was more comfortable and quiet than the RR we looked at. Not only that, it shared the same transmission and a similar engine. The american car was just better.

[@P_Beard_5961]

Fun fact, the ending of this episode at the American colony was filmed at shaw ridge in my hometown of Swindon (England), including the exterior shots of the pub (which is a very nice pub, I have to say). No clue where the inside of the pub was filmed though because it isn’t the same pub from the exterior shots

You can see the rope that was used to pull him out at 3.47. The real genius is the editor at amazon who managed to edit it out of the final shot..
