[@quillmaurer6563]

8:05 As the big ship is off their Port side, technically Jeremy has right-of-way. But I do have to imagine that size also plays a role, that more maneuverable vessels (a pickup truck with an outboard motor) must give way to less maneuverable vessels (a 34,000 ton ferry). But my final answer is that the ferry must give way to Jeremy, as maritime law states that vessels in distress always have right of way, which I would assume extends to vessels that have a 99% chance of being in distress at any second.

They lost a lot of the production talent that made the show what it was when they left the BBC. I also think the relationship between the three became a little strained after the whole debacle. I think May and Hammond were mad that Jeremy got the show canned with his behaviour and it took a while to repair the relationships, I know May kept saying he wanted to stop doing TGT after each series but I guess the Amazon money was too much to turn down.

When Top Gear was cool!

[@llccaaa]

Yeah when It was a show with 3 mates mucking around as appose to an overly organised tv programme with Chris Evans trying to be Jeremy Clarkson

[@michaelramsey82]

Imagine how much fun it must have been to be on that beach and get to watch the Top Gear guys drive a pickup truck out of the water.

[@aperson6102]

6:00 that unenthusiastic ass "yay"

[@tmbottegal]

“And there was much rejoicing”

[@zakofrx]

The Grand Tour needs to do this again properly. They must get the record!!

[@n1thmusic229]

I don't know for sure but the record might've changed also the grand tour already got a UK record involving amphibious cars

[@AyushGupta-jo3gy]

One Of The Best Examples Of Work From The Golden Trio!!! Love It!!!

[@PerovNigma]

How is it that merely a lot of "Ow"s can be such a funny recurring joke?

[@jayswarrow1196]

It's in the verbal part, like his famous "Helleu".

[@Therealgaz619]

Genuinely one of the best episodes of the entire series

[@bcrock8655]

3:28. Their reactions are perfect

[@inshasha6217]

When James dropped the cup i just completely lost it.

[@haoussazakariaaek3660]

"i can just see sea, sky, sea, sky, seaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" XXD

6:52 *The sinking of the Titanic April 14, 1912 (Colorized)*

[@MarloSoBalJr]

These three managed to cross the channel in a welded amphibious Nissan truck. That's a human feat of engineering and top-class content

[@Kevin15047]

Hahaha.I think they're nuts but I admire their perseverance.

[@michaelaustin7339]

It's like kids in the playground at school; Jeremy to Richard;" While you sink, again," ,"No- not this time"," it will"," it won't", "it just will"," it just won't"...... Brilliant.

[@marlowerecoing-tallen3385]

“You drop it down in this slot, THATS A WOPPER “ 😂

[@finnmcool2]

If James had thought to bring a paddle I believe he would have had a shot.

[@ala0284]

The look on May and hammonds faces when he said Dover were priceless😂

[@TheMasheenist]

(Richard can’t see in front of his boat) “I’ll need a sailing box” Richard gets me every time 😆

[@DeadlyLazer]

I wonder if to this day theres still a tea cup at the bottom of the ocean off the coast of Dover. If someone's mad enough to try and find it, thats a piece of Top Gear history right there

[@alfa_guy09]

6:36 Ah good old Top Gear, leaving their comrades behind.
