Clarkson, Hammond and May Catapult a Citroën Back to France | The Grand Tour: Carnage A Trois

[@w.h.o.c.a.r.e.s]

Hell yeah

[@fluppy4202]

The entire flight takes about 20 seconds. 25 miles are about 40 kilometres. This is the speed it will have at its arrival in France: 40000m/20s = 2000 m/s. As the speed of sound is 343 m/s, the citroen was travelling at 2000/343 = 5.8 times the speed of sound. This shows Jeremy’s genius in catapult-building abilities

[@jasv49]

[@kikufutaba524]

@@HLP_Gaming As a Mathematics professor at the University of Hokkaido I would totally concur with your assertion. People that do not care for mathematics always seem to have a poor understanding of the subject. It is a testament to the inadequate instruction given in primary schools as it allowed these people to leave school without a proper understanding of the subject.

@@thatcreatenoob - Good question and thank you for asking. I actually possess a deep loathing for ALL religions, and did in fact initially choose a similar profile pic that featured the symbols for Christianity, Judaism and Islam crossed-out, but it looked far too small, particularly when viewed on the small screen of a phone, so found this one and chose it for its more dynamic aesthetic.

I remember watching this the first time and remarking out loud that this was very Pythonesque..... Well done Lads, the British car industry is now much more robust due to your efforts, Sadly.

[@JonkariP]

People saying this is cgi. Most likely it's not. What is happening here is they launched the car multiple times to get it appear to stay longer in the air. Also some of the air footage is slowed down hence it looks bit odd. The car is most likely dropped from a crane at the end when it hits the building.

[@FilthySnob]

Cgi or not its fake lame british sense of humour

[@LaVaZ000]

It's CGI

[@angelo3807]

what really ticks me off is the fact that they had time to a) launch the catapult from the ground b) get into a platform and had time to get their binoculars on Trajectory with the car suggests that it would have landed in 10-15 seconds tops. Ain't nobody got time for that
