I rewatched the the Jags episode

I was just wondering I know they often do their own stunts and no stunt driver but I assume for this scene they took James out of the car cause he’d be injured quite badly. Then cut to the next scene and he is completely fine. 🤷

This one was obviously very good camera trickery, but they often do dangerous and ill advised “stunts”. James crashing into that wall in Scandinavia when they were trying to reach the highest speed then stop before the wall.

“That Jag is properly villainous.”

While the Jaaaaag itself is perfectly capable of maintaining driver safety while plummeting headlong over a cliff and falling hundreds of feet and then tumbling end over end, I think the new CEO or marketing team has overestimated the damage that Jaguar’s reputation can sustain.

I mean Hammond was hospitalized twice so I wager it was “usually”

“Ow” - James May

When Jeremy does his circuit, Richard gives Jeremy a time that is several seconds longer, and Jeremy accepted that timing. Richard then gives the camera a knowing cadish look.

Awfully sorry, I appear to have messed up your time. Would you mind holding the stopwatch while I warm up the Jaaaaag?

The road they drove down on the snow, that's how I got to work today! Driving my truck not a Jaggg

You mean ‘Jaaaaaaaaaaags’?

This scene was really well done. That shot in the screenshot with james rolling on full tilt to that edge had me on the edge of my seat. I was very surprised that that jag (and James) came out of it unscathed.

The Jag absorbed all of the damage. They do that, it's part of why they're better than all other cars.

What damage? He continue to drive it for the rest of the episode.

It was because he was driving a Jaaaaag....
