What's the most embarrassing thing you've done on a road trip? 🤔

[@Ddaman27]

Once we were on the highway and we thought the door didn't lock so I try to open the door and it comes flying open and we were going like 60 mph and ye I almost flew out the car 😳

[@peanuts2105]

I sat in a BL Mini.

[@patrickancona1193]

You got a minute..... ok maybe a day? Was it mooning the feds & my friends following high speed chase in a parking lot? or finding out my other friend did not in fact BUY the school bus we had filled with girls, beer, (etc...cough) & had a mobile party with a live band & stack of marshal amps (tho we owned..... most of that

[@xrrer]

I pissed in a bottle

[@kurtsudheim825]

We were on a bit of a high getting truck drivers to pull their horns, at a toll booth, one in the group said if you pull the metal, black & yellow pole with the stop sign, thing the alarm goes off, he tried but couldn't reach out the window, so me being the tallest (though have short arms, didn't know it was my legs yet), am egged on for the next toll, sticks head out the window, reaching for it but just to far to get a full grip & pull... shay my pants as a get shoes at by someone, so am sure it must happen

[@sarephbtmistari8909]

In my mind he just moved and became a security officer who is fluent in polish. And now the Top Gear guys blew his cover!

Jeremuh, Jeremuh, you need to pay for James Pinkmay's damage Jeremuh

[@Idle125]

🤡

[@PureNeptune]

"We've only done 20 feet!" The genuine shock in his voice. The funniest thing is, he hit the barrier, he'd technically not even done 1 foot!

[@Jondoe_04]

To me it's funny that he used imperial units rather then metric. It's like you messed up so bad America would be embarrassed for you.

[@edsutherland8266]

@@Jondoe_04To be fair, it’s one of the British oddities (there are a lot), we use metric for most things, but weirdly use imperial measurements for distances, especially driving-wise. So we’ll often buy x kilograms of potatoes, but a 600mm wide dishwasher, but drive 10 miles! 😂

[@NotACrash_Exe]

​@@edsutherland8266it's so weird that even games have the option for "British" setting which was basically what you explained So it goes like this IMPERIAL METRIC BRITISH

[@beatnik6806]

Is this scripted? It's hard to tell the difference but since they script almost everything this probably is too 😂

[@phoebe3575]

@@beatnik6806nah it’s not scripted in that sense, it’s more loosely scripted improvisation - so like obviously various things are set up so a certain situation will play out, but there’s no learning lines or anything (although you can definitely tell the moments where they’ve been told “ok so now you’re gonna say X to introduce this” because it’s painfully obvious)

[@shakir1998]

James took the name Captain Slow to a whole new level this episode

[@byingtonbrosYT]

He hates the name but always picks the slowest cars

[@thegrandtour]

James earned his place in this race 🤣 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6GaoImfg8iSirc

[@voornaam3191]

Okay, but how can he NOT SEE such a thing? Was his mind already in Blend? I was taught, on a bike, in a car, you must be AWARE. May was not! Scary.

[@Tobias94b]

He took his name and gave it to the one wiper 😂

[@user-tc3gw6zu2i]

Captain idiot always

[@happydawg2663]

He has one of the smallest car ever and he hits a barrier in a gap wide enough to let a truck go by, pure May

[@ulvschmidt7174]

Surely it was intentionaly he hit it head height right in front of his face

[@spinyslasher6586]

​@@ulvschmidt7174No it probably wasn't intentional, James just has moments like this naturally.

James literally explained that the Crosley was 4ft wide to fit through a shops door and then manages to do this 20ft into the journey lol.

Was looking for this comment

[@BrownSofaGamer]

@@marthflores3515 I was almost annoyed that neither Clarkson nor Hammond brought that up as a joke after that.

That this Polski Security Man tried to speak GERMAN with them is Hilarius 😂 "Dwaj, bo bedzie POLIZEI!" 😂 Like every non Polish speaker has to be German 😂

[@aps-pictures9335]

I never realised you can actually see the police chatting to the angry man in the background 😂😂😂😂😂

I’m gonna miss these guys. Good thing we all got years of episodes to look back on.

[@dovaskostasgr]

With all that electrical car I think is lucky to don't doit now the show

[@alechall7082]

And no way to watch them without ads in the US. I would pay good money for old top gear. Even then, it's doubtful we would ever get the original music that was cut out. Such a shame. Again, if anyone is paying attention here, *I would pay good money*

I dunno if its combined or not, but that it is suprising it is!
