i don't think there's a canadian wikipedia sorry

also fr.wikipedia doesn't have a richard hammond article so you quebec guys are just out of luck!

GOD 300 mph is more than 300 kph which is a reasonable F1 speed.

It was a jet powered car and they recently said on the news that it's more ike flying a plane than a car and they said he was trying to break the land speed record. Also they said he's a bit better but the next 24 hours are crucial. Hope he makes it through so I can see how fast that car is shiiiiiit, I love top gear...

~RoaringSasuke (someone said a crash for him was waiting to happen because he was too adventurous, lol)

Hammond does "Brainiac" aswell, AND he did that gunpowder plot documentary where they re-created the entire plan and went ahead with Guy Fawke's desired outcome of blowing the shit out of the houses of parliament. Obviously the building was mock-up, but it had the same wooden flooring as the real building does and the powder was laid right below the King's throne. My god...that shit would have made history a whole lot easier to sit through if the guy struck that fucking match. I hate you Guy...I hate you! :<

Also:

Spoiler: For people who don't know who or what he is :X

I heard about that At least he's stable.

I have noticed Brainiac's Test Tube Baby wasn't on on Thursday, and they didn't repeat it today. Also, they have stopped showing Top Gear on UKTV Gold.

 

[Nakama]

Is that so, they don't want to seem uncaring showing him on tv when (being realistic) it could be his last moments... *goes to bbc.co.uk to check any new news*

Heh, Jezza went up to him and said "Gosh hamster, you always were a shit driver". What a nice thing to say.

Good news by the way:
