oh... and did anyone else spot the stunt man driver ? only saw him for a split sec.... odd they let it through for TV.... maybe its a publicity stunt ?
(the bit where Jeremy is driving alone, and has to pass another 4x4 coming the other way.... the white one)

Was it really? I never noticed, even on the closeup as the rocks started slipping it looked like Jeremy.


I think it was JC, or if it was a stunt man its was a dead ringer for him.

I did wonder though whether there was a net out of shot, or whether in fact it was at the base of the mountain somewhere relatively safe to fall that they edited together.

It looked a bit odd to me - the white car couldve been closer to the cliff ..or if the road really was that hairy he could have backed up fifty feet to where the road was nice and wide.

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

The thing to remember is, do you really think that in the event of someone coming the other way theyd have stopped them and asked "Will it be ok if we film this car passing you, would you mind waiting an hour whilst we set the cameras up?", its staged, just how much ? :D
