It weren't actually Hammond driving. If you watch at one point he turns the steering wheel all the way to the right but the car doesn't turn at all.

And the same rules apply to Kayaking and to canoeing? Go and read up on the rules once more!

Cockroach Man - 9 years ago

+Logan Stewart I had a camp instructor at school who used to have a sissy fit when we called the kayaks canoes.We always called them canoes after that.

Logan Stewart - 9 years ago

I don't know your nationality but the BCU (British Canoe Union) oversea all kayaking and canoeing in Britain

Leif Vejby - 9 years ago

Kayaking is a form of kayaking whereas canoeing is a form of canoeing.

But a cow isn't a horse kayaking is a form of canoeing.

Walter White - 10 years ago

+Skandranon Banefire The bit between 3:24 and 4:30 has nothing to do with any of the Pirates of the Caribbean theme songs. It`s totally different.

Skandranon Banefire - 10 years ago

You don't get out much do you? That's "He's a Pirate" by Hans Zimmer. It's the theme song for Pirates of the Caribbean.

s4n714g000 - 10 years ago

That "Tomcat" looks so amazing, incredibly fun to drive, sounds and looks like a beast. Only bad thing is: I'd have to sell my TV to fill up the gas tank, lol.

+Kalpesh Patel I don't know, you show ask US custom, they did the crushing. The official saying is LR defenders do not comply with US safety standards.

Kalpesh Patel - 9 years ago

aren't monster trucks legal in US? so howcome tomcat kind of vehicles are banned?

+Kalpesh Patel Sorry, what do you mean?

ShadowFalcon - 9 years ago

+Four40SixPak
Most likely.

Four40SixPak - 9 years ago

+MrFalconfly dident realize that, not sure how the 04 model i own rates as far as safety but im assumeing since rams are " the lightest in their class " probably about the same. as far as landrovers go , from my experiance they are built like small tanks that cant be stopped by natural elements. im going to assume landrover america or whatever the company is that sells them here dident want to pay to have the new ones crash tested and so even if they are safe cant be driven here. much like nissan and its skylines.

ShadowFalcon - 9 years ago

+Four40SixPak
Looking at your profile pic I can see you're most likely a MOPAR fan so I'm gonna tread carefully regarding the RAM.

I was thinking the 2007 Dodge RAM.

And while it's stability might be acceptable, its crash-safety wasn't, with seats and head-restraints rated Poor, by the IIHS (EuroNCAP doesn't seem to have tested it).

Hell even today the latest RAM's roof-strength is only rated Marginal.

Four40SixPak - 9 years ago

+MrFalconfly well rams are fairly safe so im not sure where that came from ,but ya wranglers are deathtraps. atleast they have rollbars. haha. i can remember 3 occasions where my wrangler did a 360 in the middle of the highway faster then i could blink or react because of alittle ice. the high center of gravity mixed with short wheel base is insanely unstable, i sold the dam thing after it did a 360 across the center line infront of a trailor truck and into the opposite ditch.

What a load of absolute rubbish.

The Landie wasn't "unsafe" especially not compared to stuff like the RAM, or the Wrangler.

Nanorisk - 10 years ago

+MrFalconfly I don't know why my previous comment was gone, just google "us custom crush defender" and the first result explains everything.

+skuirpy scuirpy What's the fuel economy on your mighty heavy hummer h1 alpha?

skuirpy scuirpy - 10 years ago

+s4n714g000 nuh i saw your comment that only bad thing is:i'd have to sell my TV to fill up the gas tank.so whats the fuel economy on it?

s4n714g000 - 10 years ago

+skuirpy scuirpy I don't get it, are you asking all of this to yourself?

skuirpy scuirpy - 10 years ago

+s4n714g000 why? whats the mpg on that tomcat thing? is it worse than my mighty heavy hummer h1 alpha? lol how bad is the fuel economy on that?

ShadowFalcon - 10 years ago

+Nanorisk
Hang on?

You guys can buy what's basically a TVR with a lorry engine (the original Dodge Viper), but the Defender is "unsafe"?!?

How does that work?!?

Nanorisk - 10 years ago

And if you live the US, it is probably illegal to import that. US has banned Land Rover defender import, due to "unsafe design".

If you know what you're doing, you can go fairly fast in a kayak. Canoes take longer to accelerate but can sustain higher speeds for a longer period of time.

yes, well spotted... this is what mystifies me. It is the most common punctuation error on the Internet, and appears to be unconscious.

Vexed Films - 11 years ago

Do you want a medal? I know that. What I'm saying is that while he incorrectly wrote "kayak's" his very next word was "canoes", correctly not using an apostrophe. So there seems to be absolutely no reason, false or otherwise to have done so.

camcoop25 - 11 years ago

he wrote "kayak's"

I was not saying that it was great that the corvette was made from plastic just saying because if you crashed or fliped on the offroad truck it would crush but it would be easy to repair just like the corvette but if you crash in the corvette you might die..

notb - 12 years ago

Tomcat is designed for extreme offroad. The body is there only to stop rocks from getting inside. Corvette is a car for everyday use (more or less), so you expect a bit more. For example: it should help you survive a crash. And it should be easy to repair after a minor accident.

Titilomelirifa - 12 years ago

So in top gear they hate that the corvette is made from plastic but when a truck is made of plastic they love it???

Peter Goodman - 14 years ago

my comment proves that I do.

TheJzai - 14 years ago

it's not exactly fair since the car has to side track around all the obstacles and go off track to get onto the bridge, while let face it, there weren't that many ice bergs to dodge

Peter Goodman - 14 years ago

uhm..thats a kayak not a canoe. and they have (have had) powered canoes for a long time.

ziy4ng - 15 years ago

that type of kayak is what we call a 'play boat'. its used for mainly white water kayaking. can do quick turns and all sorts of skills but no good for going fast and straight

VASILE JACKSON - 16 years ago

no i was saying about top gear english cars are better than the rest...for exemple the landie is the best the aston martin(ex DB 5(1950-60) is rubbish) but it's still the best...they have the best cars it's stupit...over the world are better cars then theirs.porsche is better then the aston,niva is better then the landie(but much uglier) in aviation the spitfire was the best but the mustang was better it's a propaganda...(but still i like them:D) and why it's vauxhall not opel?

truknayr23 - 16 years ago

They are talking about the product... It doesnt mean you can win a race and be a champion if you are riding the best car... there are a lot of factors to consider man... Race driver is one for example... the racing team itself is two... and many more...

VASILE JACKSON - 16 years ago

ok but a car is better offroad...the Niva is much uglier but it's better;)

ⵔⵓⴽⴰⵜⴽⴰⵜ - 16 years ago

They mean that the LR is the best 4x4 which can be bought by the public, a Tomcat or Bowler isn't available for the public to buy.

VASILE JACKSON - 16 years ago

i have a question for all of you:Why is top gear presenting the best 4x4 to be the Land Rover?And why isn't the Land Rover the one who wins the Paris Dakar?(sorry for my english;))

CosmoxYRik - 16 years ago

Yeah it did, in the race across london James's car lost against the Stig on public transport, Hammond on a bike and Clarkson taking a boat down the Thames.

It was Aired!

tomisthehebitch - 16 years ago

does anyone know whether this was aired on top gear or is it on one of the dvds?

KamiKaziChicken - 16 years ago

Lol, it is. What makes it worse is that the kyak isn't one of the streamlined ones, it looks like the blunter type used for water stunts. Meaning its even harder to keep in a straight line.

iSim0641 - 16 years ago

The TomCat sounds wicked!

rish134 - 16 years ago

way hay!!!!

n118nw - 16 years ago

I bet if Hammond didn't hit the ice he would have won.. very close race though I bet that having to steer your way around the ice like that is a really big effort on the upper body
