The Grand Tour » Season 2 » The Falls Guys
01:10:10
Jeremy Clarkson, James May, Richard Hammond, Mike Skinner
62
Plot summary
The presenters race from Central Park in Manhattan, New York City, to an observation tower overlooking the Niagara Falls. Clarkson drives the new Ford GT whilst May and Hammond (on crutches) use public transport, taking the New York City Subway, AirTrain JFK, a JetBlue Embraer E190 flight, plus two Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority buses. Despite Hammond and May's flight arriving 15 minutes early, Clarkson narrowly wins the race. For Conversation Street the presenters discuss sponsorship ideas. Clarkson reviews the Mercedes AMG GT R, after which new test driver, Abbie Eaton, takes it for a timed lap around the Eboladrome. In "Celebrity Face Off", Kevin Pietersen of South Africa beats Brian Wilson of the U.S. as the "fastest person who makes a living throwing and hitting and catching small balls".
