Richard Hammond's Crash Course
Top Gear star Richard Hammond travels across the US for his ultimate motor challenge, seeking out and driving the country's toughest and most extraordinary vehicles.
Abrams Tank
Richard travels to Fort Bliss in El Paso, TX to drive the world's most powerful and awe-inspiring vehicle, the Abrams M1 Tank. He'll be challenged to drive it, fire it, and manouver it through a trial course.
Tree Harvester
Richard is heading to the forest to learn how to use the machines that cut and process wood. His first challenge will be to master the dangle head processor, a huge machine that cuts, strips and slices wood.
Landfill
Richard will travel to the Denver Regional Landfill, where he'll need to learn what it takes to stay on top of the rubbish or risk getting buried by it.
Striker
Did somebody yell fire? Have no worries because Richard is in Dallas-Forth Worth, TX learning how to operate the Striker, a large, one-person operated fire engine with a hose containing enough power to blast concrete away.
Demolition
Richard will learn how to properly tear down a house with one of the busiest demolition companies in the country. He'll operate a track hoe that is capable of demolishing a house in a matter of minutes and then take on the mighty wrecking ball.
Salvage Yard
Richard will be joining a group of salvagers who work off the Gulf Coast. His challenges will be learning to use the crane, the claw and electro-magnet.
