I love british people, I sent this to my British friend because I know her dad is just that kind of person, he just happened to be the guy who helped build my first spudgun.

It's the funniest ever..

Is that a problem for you?

He was firing some nice stuff, the cars looked authentically trashed and it was entertaining.

frankrede, why would it be fake?

Top Gear does all kinds of silly stuff.

They were testing the new Range Rover sport by chasing it with a Challenger tank, they outmanouevered an Apache gunship in an Exige, blow up caravans, etc.

Favourites include caravan conkers, driving a massive 4x4 half a mile across the surface of a lake, and the "Van driver competion" including a tailgating event (The winner of that was within 8mm of the rear bumper of the tailed car).

Sure it's scripted, but it isn't fake.

It's a great program that works under the provision of cars, but it's pure comedy most of the time.

it is one of the best shows on TV - there is another presenter called Richard Hammond (Hamster - he's pretty short!!) - he has just come out of Hospital with suspected brain damage when he lost control of a jet powered car doing 288mph - he's lucky he is alive but will be back on the show in jan!!! - the show is most defianetly not fake - as i have seen out takes from some of the more unbaleivable stunts it just takes them a few goes!!!

It is fake because if you cant hit a clay bird while aiming with a shotgun howdo you hit it a car without aiming,, while hes firing the spas he hits it even without aiming. He doesn't aim while firing the machine gun and hits it evrytime, teh anti-tank gun has no laser guidance is ment for slow or stationary objects how did he hit it dead on while its flying.

"He fires two rounds from the Spaz, yet in the slow motion footage showing the impacts, you can hear four shots, the first two going wild, you can actually see the black powder behind the vehicle. The slow motion footage can be heard that four shots are fired. Whilst, probably genuine damage, it's unlikely that it was Clarkson actually hitting the vehicle in this instance."

There was alot of special effects.

Cool video, though it looked like the anti-tank round was edited in with a computer.
