The stig talks

[topgeartom]

Dont know if this is a repost, or indeed even real but its pretty genuine i think. Had a quick search and i couldnt find any evidence of this already being posted.

From a dutch TV show

YouTube

If this has already been around a while please could the mods remove it and accept my appologies for being thick.

[vexor]

nice find, it's new for me

TY

[Firdosh7747]

yeh good find i havent seen it either

[TopGearNL]

Yeah its Carmonth on Veronica now and they always show TG, well the previous season that is..

I saw it but didn't see it on Youtube so thanks Tom! :D

Anyone regconises his voice?

[TopGearNL]

^^ Now that you've mentioned it, he does indeed sound a bit like Hammond, and he is quite small :shock:

[topgeartom]

Ive thought for a very long time its Ben Collins. That still stands i think.

[novass]

Never seen this. Good find though this doesn't get me any closer to figuring out who he is LOL He does sound similar to Hammond, but not close enough IMO Also, Hammond looks just a bit shorter then the presenter girl and the Stig looks equal to a little bit shorter whilst leaning on a car. I think if the Stig stood up, he would be taller than Hammond.

Who was the chick presenting anyway? She looks kinda hot.

[ARMAN]

Thanx Tom never seen this :P After first words I thought its Richard :hmm: but than it didnt sound like him

[Everlasting]

mystery gone; top gear ruined.

j/k
bit weird though, it shouldn't talk!

[htfaber]

The possibility of Damon Hill is out.

[topgeartom]

Ben Collins, mark my words people.

[dutchmasterflex]

It's probably a number of people. And most likely not always a famous racer.

[TopGearNL]

Who was the chick presenting anyway? She looks kinda hot.

Thats Jorinde de Mol http://www.tvbabes.com/presentatrices/jorinde.html :twisted:

Ben Collins, mark my words people

Yeah that seems to be the most obvious choice, he's not THAT famous but still.

[silentm]

quite interesting. first time i hear the Stig utter a sound :D

[Mattk]

Interesting. It's not Hammond, they sound different and The Stig seems taller.

[TopGearNL]

^^ But he does sound young, so I still go with Tom on this one, its Ben Collins..

[TNT]

they need MS as the :D

[TopGearNL]

^^ Can't be, you talk too much! :lol:

[Pokiou]

Ben Collins 'outed' as The Stig
Appearing on a New Zealand Motorsport television programme called 'Pit Lane' on January 17th 2007, A1GP team manager and British motorsport personality David Sears was questioned if he knew the identity of the Top Gear test driver known only as "The Stig". Without hesitiation and in a very matter-of-fact manner he replied, "Oh, you want to know who the Stig is... Ben Collins, he's a British sportscar driver, Ben Collins".
