Richard Hammond talks to Christian O'Connell on Absolute Radio

Richard Hammond takes a break from presenting Top Gear, writing books, promoting supermarkets, doing more TV shows and writing some more books...to visit The Christian OConnell Breakfast Show for a chat.

[@P8andJam]

[@YTPNinjaChannel]

Listening to Hammond just makes you want to hug him, lol.

[@ThelouwseFD]

I just love his voice so much

[@Beliebsrauhl]

Damn. He's so sweet and his voice is amazing here.

[@hyAxis]

I am just so glad we didn't lose this guy in that crash...

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Hammond is always a great co presenters of top gear and the grand tour

[@longtailgt]

Both of them had the laugh of their lives! I have never seen Jeremy or James mocking about like Hammond.

[@shookah1]

the best interview hammond ever made

[@MidnightSunsetsNU]

Thank you to whoever had the bright idea to post an 18 min vid! This is what I was looking for as I click click clicked through ten 1:30-50 minute clips! finally I can sit back and relax.

[@MissyWatson]

Richard Hammond is great! Great interview!

[@SMOshee]

he is so simultaneous with his answers... A great story teller!!!

[@cleverusername9369]

That's a really strange use of "simultaneous" I think you meant "spontaneous"

[@SMOshee]

@@cleverusername9369 I did...

[@brandonse167]

I wonder what his interview video was like for the show

[@MrSausageHam]

That laugh at 9:17! LOL

[@daniellarsson3699]

'' How do you get a kidney stone at your age ? ''. I got one at 18 ...

[@lukebigmore9231]

+daniel larsson One at 22, one at 24.

[@daniellarsson3699]

Oh ... Havent gotten another one still, and i freaking hope i dont. It f****ng hurts .. :O

[@lukebigmore9231]

Yeah, most traumatic experience ever - 2nd one absolute hell.

[@daniellarsson3699]

I know right ... Its not like you got 9 months preparement for it, it just hits you and you literally want to be killed ...

[@mr.finger8429]

If you eat a massive amount of salt, your likely to get a kidney stone. Regardless of your age.

[@zapfanzapfan]

And now he is turning 50... after another terrible crash...

[@loyseugene]

40 in '09... I turned 40 in '09 too. I didn't know I was the same age as Hammond.

[@QurttoRco]

he's still 38

[@Thepurplealex1]

QurttoRco No...

[@AymanB]

QurttoRco Not many will understand.

[@villagersspawn]

Ayman B. Well done.

[@maliciousintruder3010]

I go skiing... does that mean I'm James Bond? :D

[@microstorm]

Im 27, when I turn 40, I'm still gonna be a kid at heart, drivin me cars and doing stuff that would make my mother sigh :p

[@aigarscelms4593]

Richard Hammond is like an Alfa Romeo... maybe that's why he never owned one. He braking himself while being one brilliant person and build a fortunate lifestyle.

[@royalbloodedledgend]

8:50 LIKE A MINNER

[@uwersayin]

@bladerunner7100 I think he realised, there isn't much time in life. It can end in a second, so make the most and be nice to who matters. But if someone gives you grief or just wants to waste your time you should just tell them to go away. Sorry to say but in my opinion I think its right way to be

[@hyperbeanify]

10:40 Hammond has an 11th doctor quiff :)

[@derke123]

And Mays

[@Tozzywozzy01]

PMSL Richard and his silly voices. :D

[@MidnightSunsetsNU]

hmmm... maybe that's why my side has hurt for the last little bit.

[@m.botvinnik7387]

Who is the female in the other room?

[@blackberry1622]

i wanted to comment this in james's conversation but the comment was off, the Host interrupts a lot, he interrupts a lot in this video as well. It's just annoying.

[@GreckonTheArseholeGamer]

15:52 richard has a bit of sweat patch...

[@alexkantor8238]

Have the other two really already gone through their midlife crisis? I think that they are still going through it. Long hair and sports cars.

[@uwersayin]

@bladerunner7100 Well a knock on the head would change everyone in some way, i think that was the way it affected him

[@philster102]

15:50 mega sweat

[@CwGoh]

Did Jeremy Clarkson dislike this?

[@Cab00v]

So ... like ... he would be turning 43, right?

[@WorldEagleKW]

This guy cuts off Richard way too much.

[@KOakaKO]

Yeah, but it's his job. In radio they try to keep up a fast pace. And you notice that Richard doesn't mind at all, because he worked in radio when he was younger. He knows what Christian is on about.

[@ElectricityTaster]

KOakaKO So radio is about annoying your listeners?

[@gamesfrombefore6459]

+agun17 most people don't notice it tbh, as was said it's a pace thing. Stops people saying 'umm'

[@AdzSONLINE]

Games From Before As you say I didn't notice it at all. Just seemed like a couple of mates chatting in a pub rather than a "professional interview" that you get on chat shows and things, much more pleasant to watch and listen to in my opinion. Much less awkward and forced.

This interview is fucking depressing.
