So each of us had a vehicle we were using or you were the person that was pushing that vehicle. You're an advocate for that car in the film. And I think I had the new Land Rover Defender. You've seen those. I had a short wheelbase Defender. And I had to hang off the back of it wearing these. We had to wear these shoes.

The big problem with some of these ones is that Andrew was so brave, he would go first and set such a high benchmark, you'd have to go, shit, I need to really go here. So he went out and did like, I thought he'd do 40 miles an hour. I think he did 75 miles an hour, hanging on the back, wearing these titanium shoes. Anyhow, Paddy gets in and tries to go really fast and he falls off.

And he's okay, but someone goes, Paddy's over. I look left, the ambulance driver was having a cigarette. at our end of the runway, and he was two miles down there. And that was one of those moments where I thought, this has got a bit loose. If you're going to do these things, that guy should have been running parallel. And I didn't like that. Two minutes of two miles, it's a long time. I know.

Although the end of that was quite, I can give you some levity there. I did my run. I didn't get quite as close as, I think I did nearly 80 miles an hour or something. And I fell off at the end and it hurt a bit. And I got in the back of the crew car, which I think was another Land Rover. And I was sitting there thinking, this smells terrible. Have I done something wrong here?

A really acrid smell. Not from the colon, but definitely I thought this is not a good smell. Like a chemical smell? Yeah. And then I was told to get out. What happened was the shoes were red hot. And I'd got in the car and they just melted straight through the carpet. And it was just smoldering on fire. I look like a shit Marvel superhero.

Yeah, I think I'm very happy and proud to have done Top Gear. But I'm so sad at the way it ended. That's the ultimate. No one had control of that that day. That's what the insurance industry calls an act of God, whether you believe in him or not. But what happened afterwards was really sad because I've arrived here. You've got your crew. You've got your people. They were my people.

And from that day, I've never really spoken to them. The producers, everyone else, no one really. It just went like that. Bang. Done. And that was very hard. Because I just couldn't believe it had happened. They're just gone. And you spend five, six years of your life more in daily contact with people and it just stops.
