Clarkson beatbox

Posted by Jamie Hibbard at 11:08 am on Wednesday July 29, 2009

You’ve got to respect dedication beyond and above the call of duty, and this is definitely that. Jeremy Clarkson, made into an instrument, made into a song:

We’re off down the telly studio today, so we’ll try to find out what the man himself thinks about it.

Thanks to ‘Drop-a-cog’ who posted this yesterday as a comment on Transmission – we thought it worth a slot of its own…

    Bwahahah! I nearly sent this in myself but I figured you’d be bombarded by people telling you about it.

    Made the mistake of watching it for the first time at work (with headphones on, mercifully). My co-workers are all now even more convinced I’m mad…

    BREAKING NEWS!!!BREAKING NEWS!!!BREAKING NEWS!!!

    Top Gear is remaking the Italian Job!

    Well sort of.

    In the Belfast Telegraph, it said that the Top Gear team would be coming to the city to film the sequence of the minis driving along the sewers!

    The sewers in Belfast are being updated in a “multi-milliom pound project”, and so Top Gear are looking to film in them in the next few weeks, as part of a tribute to the 1969 movie.

    They may even “end up doing a loop-the-loop in the sewers”.

    This could be amazing!

    Swedemason had emailed this tune of epic proportions to the top gear office on monday, so maybe it’ll get a mention on the show.

    Only thing missing from it was an instance of POWEEERRRRR and maybe a ‘that’s not gone well’. Absolutely fantastic and it shold DEFINITELY be on the show at some point.
    Would love to know what Jeremy thinks of it.
