The Century of Speed
Jeremy Clarkson reveals his top four ultimate speed machines, ranging from the mighty Concorde to the more humble Vauxhall Vectra. However, as mankind progresses into the 21st century, Jeremy believes engine power has been overtaken by a new type of speed : electronic : and wonders if fast vehicles will become little more than playthings in light of Dennis Tito's recent pleasure trip into space
Nature Fights Back!
Jeremy Clarkson examines the effects of air pressure at high velocity, using a wind tunnel to re-create the sensations experienced by speed skiers who travel downhill at up to 150mph, before travelling to Bedfordshire to find out what would happen if the window of an aeroplane blew out at 35,000ft. At this height, food explodes with the sudden drop in pressure
Surviving Speed
Jeremy Clarkson investigates the chances of surviving high-speed crashes, and attempts to discover why tobogganists crave the adrenaline they get from an activity in which they are likely to be injured sooner or later. To find an answer he meets the chairman of the notorious Cresta Run in St Moritz - then risks his own life racing a car down a ski slope at 80mph
