Jeremy Clarkson on Horses

"I think horses might interlock." -James May, 2004

[@Croco420]

🤣

[@JarthenGreenmeadow]

I was dying when he said that

[@davidphelps5857]

They do interlock, thats where baby horses come from

[@aciDCXIV]

He isn’t called “Captain Slow» for nothing.

[@nosha6599]

Istg I thought your name was sand-ass

[@Scalloops]

just put the horses in the engine and increase the horsepower

[@mj68874]

That wouldn’t actually work because you couldn’t fit it in the engine bay and even if you did I’m not sure how it would contribute.

[@randomyoutubeaccount6906]

nah it'd work. plus one horse power

[@derptank3308]

Get 100 horses 100hp

[@Grunt_007]

Horse steak is a relatively normal food inany western countries, and really is quite tasty!

[@chickenchaser125cc9]

Mince beef at Iceland has horse in it

[@lotfy309]

This is just a normal funny conversation between a group of friends I love these guys

[@PHelsing]

YES! YES! YES! THIS! i miss this 😂😂

[@lokajun]

Horses might inter-lock. LMFAO

[@dgcostarica1]

I could listen to these three talk forever

[@marvinuhilarious]

Being called brilliant by the TG boys was probably the highest point of the two horse bloke's life.

[@denisruzicka1606]

1:28 Jeremy looks on Television then on cleavege.

[@hasoonnine]

finally, an old episode that doesn't look like is been recorded in 144p

[@Jacklop789]

I love how this is in my recommend 7 years later. When pulling a horse trailer, we eventually go the speed limit we just don’t want to floor it with the horses in the back. Ok highways we do the limit, on back roads we normally do 5-10 under.

[@MrWolfSnack]

you dont do the speed limit when you're towing a loaded trailer. you do 20 under. more if the weather is damp. shocking how many idiots can't understand that.

[@JarthenGreenmeadow]

"One at home, one where you're going" lol

[@BradTheThird]

The mere mention of "Dixons" dates this episode.

[@mrkeefor]

They crap on the pavement and the owners never pick it up. How can something so large be so scared of pretty much everything.

[@jojjo8450]

Sorry for the really late reply, but here's the explanation. Horses can get scared by, pretty much anything, because it's their instincts as prey animals. In the wild they have to run away from predators to survive, so if they see or hear something that might be a predator, they run. It's sort of "hard wired" in their brains to "run first, look later" because it's better to run away from nothing and not risk getting killed than looking first and then it might be to late to get away in time

[@paulmarshall1342]

Top gear horse v car

[@ameliarufus1056]

horses are flight animals its takes a lot of time and training... also how are we supposed to pick up horse shit!?! i work at a riding stables and if we do a beach ride we have to get off our giant horses get a nappy bag and pick it up but welcome to Cornwall there are dog shit bins everywhere its impossible to do anywhere else. also horse crap is a lot cleaner and better than cat and dog shit and doesn't smell nearly as bad

[@TheJkghfg]

1:24

[@ProudToBeNoob]

It's not difficult. It just comes down to training and control and most people are too lazy and do an awful job at it. Man has been able to control horses and keep them brave for millennia. it's only in the last century that horse owners seem to have "forgotten". I know plenty of horse owners who take their responsibility seriously and there's absolutely no excuse for a horse to take flight when you overtake it doing literally 10mph while giving it 2 metres of space. Stop blaming your own inadequacies and failings in training on the horse. Its perfectly capable, even if you're not. Remember the charge of the light brigade? Those horses had never seen combat before, but their riders had trained them adequately and knew how to keep them under control. Also: Keep the beasts off the pavement, they belong on the road and single file, NOT side by side. You're not generating much good will by blocking the road and refusing to make space. Remember you're not entitled to obstruct the road for the sake of making your conversation easier. Their shit may be less smelly, but there's a hell of a lot more of it. On narrow pavements it's difficult to cross, it attracts and breeds flies and particularly in the snow is very easy to step in to. Oh, and dogs like to eat it, so you're also a nuisance to other pet owners. Summary/Tl;Dr: This is not an attack on you personally, but a general call to all horse riders to (pardon the pun) get off their high horses, step up, take responsibility and stop blaming your failings and laziness on the animal, which is perfectly capable.

[@ARB6769]

This is what Top Gear talks about back in the 1800s

[@endroo93]

Only the Mustang can fall over, especially when a crowd's watching.

[@Ficii1]

A mustang likes to charge the crowd, especially if they need to mount the pavement to do it.

[@zachnewby4739]

WOW! Richard isn't ranting about how a horse is trying ruin his marriage.

[@AlaaSelim]

i miss old topgear jokes and sarcasm, new topgear sucks!

[@akbarisapaki]

Bryce Moore Hes on about the new top gear not the grand tour.

[@apexbrz2575]

i uh.... i knew that lol my bad dude

[@Tcrumpen]

You know why they move so slow, it's because Horses are actually quite 'delicate' if you go to fast they can get injured and not be able to walk or run anymore, i won't deny that horse boxes are annoying on the roads but you could implement a policy that restrict horse boxes from being on the roads during the busiest hours of the day (rush hours etc.)

[@mancubwwa]

The best idea is to move Horses already smoked, flavored and frozen. This way they will take much less space, and vehicle can move faster

[@nova_zar]

​@@mancubwwa LMAO

[@MistxFusion5]

I’ve seen horse trailers going 70mph on the highway, never thought the horse must be dead

[@collinscody57]

Just buy a truck with a big engine and tow your horse in a stock trailer designed to be pulled at 110 120km/ h like us Albertains do

[@scrambler4148]

Fuck yeah burta

[@bukanmatin5973]

Nice.

[@a_common_weeb]

Now there is 2 million horses

Just mount the horse and ride it where you need to go. Ol' school way :)

[@scsutton1]

And some fifteen years later, Hammond went on the greatest rant of all time about horses.

[@TomMattin]

What about a hammock that goes under its belly and is attached to centre of ceiling so if you accelerate or go round corners it won't fall over

[@coxy3771]

Horse boxes should be made by law to pull over do faster moving traffic can pass

[@Deadmentellnotales-vf3gg]

Milorad Djurdjic No that is quite reasonable! If a large line of vehicles is forming behind the horse box the owner should stop being a "prick" and let the drivers past! Why should dozens of people be late for work etc because one person is moving their pet?! Also learn how to use the space bar, and grammar, properly!

[@kalebbruwer]

I've seen many slow vehicles (usually tractors) do this. You really have to be selfish and inconsiderate not to do so.

[@mancubwwa]

Milorad Djurdjic That... that is actually a brilliant idea

[@mancheetah5610]

Kaleb Bruwer yeah but the difference is that tractors are contributing significantly to society. A horse is just an expensive pet.

[@sirwoollyjumper4893]

Kaleb Bruwer - If I remember correctly, motorists pulling caravans are obliged to pull over to let traffic past. But they just fucking don't.

[@franciscod.s7799]

"All these horses in my car got me going fast!"

[@emilychilds9551]

Going at 20mph it must have been on the way to the vet with some kind of injury. Horse boxes go plenty faster than that usually

[@Ivan_I99999]

Funny because during an episode of the grand tour where Hammond hates horses and that a horse stole his wife.

[@ranma24601]

Why not send the horses by train instead?

[@markmallone7484]

Horse's are normally going to horse racing courses, usually away from city's/towns that train lines connect to so would still need to be driven the rest of the way I'd imagine.

[@zoltancsikos5604]

They don't have trains running to every single spot in a country and I don't think I've ever seen a train carrying horses just for a race or something.

[@decodolly1535]

@@zoltancsikos5604 They used to - check out Norbury Station in South London. Instead of stairs to the platforms it was built with long shallow ramps specifically designed to enable horses to arrive by train to the nearby Lonesome Farm race course. Unfortunately they no longer do this and the race course is long gone but the station is still accessed via the ramps.

[@Tony-112]

Hammond looked 15 years old here.

[@D8W2P4]

Meanwhile in America, livestock (this includes horses) trailers cannot move slower than 80MPH especially if pulled by a dually.

[@codenamecordon]

D8W2P4 sounds like a pretty high limit. Where did it come from and how is it done safely?

[@Metal-Possum]

That same logic for two horses would also work with motorhomes and caravans.

[@mancubwwa]

it does. it's called "hotels". Unfortunately some people are stubborn.

[@zoltancsikos5604]

@@mancubwwa That makes no sense at all.

[@zoltancsikos5604]

Alex Paulsen A 10 meter tall motorhome or caravan? The fuck? Why? So it's restricted to where it can go and it'll tip over and crush someone?

[@dologongpoloponobonotongpo235]

Richard hammond was right. That's how you transport livestock actually.

[@iantownsend500]

Or the selfie cow could of stopped at the side of the road to let the traffic by

[@kylemiller859]

Just feed the horses crack and they’ll run faster. It’s kinda like adding a turbo

[@detachsounds]

Bring more horses, produce more horsepower!

[@ashwinmoses8277]

Look at how young Clarkson looks LOL

[@zackstewart4109]

I was once stuck behind a horse trailer for I KID YOU NOT 50 miles - FOUR HOURS of driving 15mph. Plenty of turn-offs, but the entitled POS wouldn't pull over. The horses aren't the problem, it's the vapid trash driving them around.

[@The12thDimension.]

At that point, it's worth just finding an alternate route

[@joshjlmgproductions3313]

[@timesnewlogan2032]

Richard’s opinion on horses changed after he grew the beard.

[@predator931]

A horse for every 60 people? I find that hard to believe

[@caitthenerd7470]

I do so hope you are being sarcastic...

[@Emma-yq7pk]

Well most horse owners have more than one because they don't like being alone

[@SilverEye91]

There's 65 million people in the UK and 800,000 horses so it's more like one in 80 people but it's not that far off. And maybe the stats I have are off. Or there's been a massive export of horses in Britain since this episode.

[@Outside85]

How about leaving your horse in the field where you found it instead of moving it around.

[@davidgapp1457]

Horses really are a waste of space. And no, they do NOT taste good. I tried horse meat once and it's nowhere near as tasty as eating dog in China. Horses should be bred-down in size to something like a Shetland (or smaller) and used to eat the grass in your garden. They should also poop pellets which can be used as fertilizer.
