Jeremy Clarkson Is Not a Fan of America or Their Culture | Friday Night With Jonathan Ross

With the release of Grand Tour Season 4 slowly approaching, we thought it would be appropriate to share this Jeremy Clarkson's interview that was broadcast in 2006.
Jeremy Clarkson walks us through his thoughts on climate change, the policies that surround gun rentals in the USA and Richard Hammonds' brain-damaging car accident.
ORIGINAL BROADCAST DATE: 24 November 2006
Jonathan Ross presents an entertaining show featuring comedy, celebrity chat, and the latest music

[@jiro4559]

@Jon he's clearly not being 100% serious when he say those things. There's a difference between actually thinking that way and saying things like that to make people laugh, which is what they did by the way. Like at the beginning, the host made fun of how Jeremy looks, he was clearly just joking around, but at the same time he was saying some offensive things. Same thing with Jeremy when he say those things. Just relax about it and learn how to laugh at yourself, holy shit people.

Yes, but somebody joking about me living in the hills, killing deer and having a few acres of pickup trucks isn't quite that funny when in all actuality I do. It's neither absurd or untrue so where's the funny part? That's like pointing out the color of a green army vehicle and uncontrollably cackling abut it.

[@samdherring]

Eaub Felangy but we can fit some of those cars in the back of our trucks... Lol I'm not picking at you but my job would be impossible without the pickup. Farmers need off-road capability, towing capacity, and easy access to things they are transporting to and from jobsites. Matthew has a point where something being normal somewhere is funny somewhere else. We should all love and laugh at the inconsistencies amongst our species.

[@jl1998ch]

Scooby Doo Yeah farmers need pickups bla bla bla... The vast majority of trucks are owned by regular people in the city to go for grocery shopping or driving to school. That‘s why we make fun of the whole American truck thing. We all get that pickups are very useful for certain professions, but like 99% of them are completely useless cause the owners just want a big fat car, they probably never do anything in life that actually requires a truck. In the US alone, every 54 seconds a F150 gets sold. Now compare that to the number of farmers and other people who actually need them. It‘s absolutely ridiculous to watch the soccer mums struggling with their trucks at Walmart because they desperately wanted a house on wheels instead of a proper car. That‘s what the rest of the world is laughing about. Got it now?

@Dung Nguyen Manh which is better? Multiple small inefficient powerplants or few very big ones? Which is better? Pollution moves with the vehicle or pollution comes from few big ones?

@@MarkWright1963 I'm aware you moron. I'm just talking about how funny it is they mention the idea of EVs being long away but now were in that age.

Yeah Courtney Hole, who knows the value of 'being out to shock!' - I find the people who are out to shock, are the most shockable. 'Jeremy said 'They're all cunts!' - and she has an eppy! - CUNT!

Jeremy "Jezza" Clarkson says it as it is. No PC World from him. He resurrected Top Gear. Hence the 350 million viewership.

"Have you ever considered a performance electric car" An idea that felt outlandish back then is well grounded in reality today. It's a marvel how far we've come since the last decade

[@JohnnyAmerique]

FPSpammers It’s true, electric cars already outperform ICE cars in most ways, and will in every way in five years’ time. The new electric 3 series BMW (I’m not much a fan of BMW’s, just saying) outperforms all other 3 series except the M3 (which I suspect has more to do with de-tuning the electric version) and has a longer range than most petrol cars in its class. That being said, the lack of infrastructure and electrical generating capacity still poses a major barrier to widespread adoption of electric vehicles in most places.

[@andrewh.4186]

He's still not into them. Notice it's always Hammond that test drives the electrics, unless it's to make fun of them.

[@alolanstarboy]

@@andrewh.4186 not much but he did admit to being more interested in watching formula E over 1. However that's probably more to do with formula 1 being boring than him liking electrics lol

[@theangrygamer895]

Electric cars are soooooo boring and nothing beats the senna around a track.

[@mrcaboosevg6089]

Electric cars are fast in a straight line, they're shit compared to something like a Lotus yet they cost far more

[@mike-qq2ms]

Clarkson will always be a legend just speak what's on your mind life's more fun that way and them yanks faces in the back priceless 😂
