I love those guys!

They have done previous rocket powered stunts.
They did a winter olympics special and strapped a bunch of rockets into the back of a mini and fired it down the olympic ski jumping ramp.

Heh. You watch Only Fools and Horses? Love that show.

But yeah, it did look pretty fucking awesome. Great stuff, even if it did crash.

Did you guys see the weeks before this? They went to america and got some typical american cars, wrote things like "i love gays" and "hilary for president" they went into alabama (hillbilie country) and the challenge was not to get shot/arrested.

They thought it wouldnt go bad, some hilliblies nearly did kill them LOL.

Its on youtube btw

Top Gear is legendary! I watch it every week, anyone see last week's where Hammond put a Motorbike on the cool wall and Clarkson came and chainsawed the whole section where the motorbike was!

So jokes!
