This may sound stupid but remember all those moons ago when "The Stig" tried to out-accelerate the jet on the aircraft carrier where the stig supposedly died after reaching 109mph and then not being able to brake in time, well did he ACTUALLY die as to me there seems no concrete evidence supporting the fact that he did die
so is it fact or just one big hoax???
this has baffled me for far too long now so must find out!
-
no
they replaced that stig with a new one, and what better way for a send off than to drive the car off an aircraft carrier.
dont think it was a race with a plane though
thats done on the racetrack with a harrier

They have the aircraft carrier video on the sight still showingthe old black stigs end
also worth a look is the apatchy v lotus and the hi-lux video
unforunatuly video quality aint that good but still worth a look
:wink:

Of course it's all a wind-up, as the previous Stig must have wanted out.
IF there'd been any kind of accidental injury (let alone death) the papers would have been all over Clarkson & crew like (select the metaphor of your own choice here.....)
Haven't actually watched it for about 2-3 weeks so no idea what's happening with it now
The last episode I saw was the (gorgeous) Sagaris being 'tracked'
-
I thought there had only ever been 1 Stig - Perry Mccarthy ex F1 driver
-
Perry McCarthy was the old Stig that 'mysteriously dissapeared' in the ocean.
Does anyone know who the new stig is yet :?:
Tim.

Dont know his name but its this guy
(the driver)
