Did you guys notice that when the rocket crashed there was this weird tank like vehicle in the foreground that emits a puff of smoke?
My original reason for thinking it was scripted was the explosion which was way, way too big for the couple of solid fuel boosters left in the Robin, so I figured it was packed with some purpose made explosives.
However, upon looking at the frame by frame, as some others have, it is very clear that the explosion is a completely different shot.

They need to stop with the plugs, its really irritating.
Also Clarkson said the 997 Turbo weighs less than the F430, but it actually weighs 300 lbs more.Hello teh OT!!! I'm still alive and kickin!
alright, but this point was that Top Gear had a SL65 in the studio and JC refers to it as the SL65, but he states all the facts of the SL600.... :?
I hate it when these magazine or TV presenters make mistakes, they're not as smart/well informed as some of us, we need to take over!!! edit: I meant people like us should have their jobs...
I've also noticed that on TG they always called the blow off valve(BOV)/Bypass valve(BPV) the wastegate. The wastegate is the thing on the turbo that controls the boost, not the thing that makes the sounds you refer to you idiots!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, I fully believe the "shuttle" hit the ground, I'm just saying it hit the ground and that it's. The explosion was a completely different shot spliced in right after the shuttle hits the ground.And they built a second shuttle just to blow it up? You can see the car and fuel tank impact into the ground when you go frame by frame.
Glad TPD is back.
This is the exact next frame, completely different background and no bits of shuttle visible.
Well, they were bound to forget one little detail; you can't really argue with that one, I don't care how wet the grass is, it doesn't survive an explosion like that.
Riiiiiiiight...Maybe it does or maybe they cleaned up the scene and setup that shot to make it look better. I bet blackened and burned grass would have upset a lot of "tree-huggers" like when he drove that Land Rover up on that mountain
yeah it did, but sometimes they just cant do it. they can only do it if porsche give them a car and let them do it. they cant if porsche say "if you wanna drive it you have to come up to scotland or something and you will have 1 day with the car"
so there is abit more to it than just JC n co deciding what does and doesnt go round the track like some people seem to think.
i'd imagine they'd be up for putting all sports cars round the track, but if the manufacturer makes it so they cant, or explicitly says NO like bugatti then they really have to abide by that.
Maybe, as some others have suggested, you want to say it's a different camera shot, but here's the real clincher - they must have awfully flame-retardent grass in the UK....

I wouldn't bet on that since filming was finished last year, so the tests and such we are seeing now was actually filmed during last summer. Maybe TGD is back, but its not been in the studio yet.
