While I don't discredit that The Stig is probably hiding an extra set of legs somewhere in that race suit, in Britain it's strangely common to say "all your legs" or otherwise refer to legs as a collective ("all") instead of implying they're a pair with "both" haha Leads to the occasional punchline about British people being spiders and all that
Those two facts: 1. You can live off the natural moisture from ducks 2. Ducks are masochistic freaks of nature who mug people who don’t feed them bread
Some say that on Wednesdays, he refuses to obey the law of gravity...and that he cam solve a Rubik's Cube in less than thirty seconds, using only his nostrils.
Ok, let’s make this one a beautifully long one... Some say that he’s magnetically attracted to walnut, and that he bombed an abandoned church just to rocket jump to the moon...
Some say that on Tuesdays he has plastic explosives for breakfast,... and that once, rather preposterously, after getting drunk on a full tank of diesel, he got engaged to James May......'s vacuum cleaner...
“Some say, one of his legs gets longer when he sees a pretty lady..... and that I haven’t done one of these for a while and I’ve forgot to make up a second thing” - Richard Hammond, probably about 2005 or something
Some say whenever it rains, you can hear him washing his mouth. And if you were to take off his helmet, you will get seriously ill until you can't even stand up
What's so brilliant about these introductions is, apart from their downright ludicrousness, is Clarkson looks just as baffled as anyone else and of course his delivery is inimitable.
@@Ann.ex2 the 'facts' were never stated, mostly because the joke was that those facts that the stig supposedly knows aren't true, which makes it not a actual fact
said tree might be in Liverpool, where there is a 72% chance that hoodlums will set him alight some say he is highly flammable and an efficient sorce of energy, after all he burns for 1000 years, and that he hasn't got a phobia of fire, because in his case it is very rational
Some say when he hears a 2010 audi R8 V10 at exactly 6456 rpm he grows 4 inches taller and that last year he emailed a picture of himself emailing a picture of himself holding a picture of himself to himself
Some say that he thought Saturn is the name of a car company that had gone bankrupt. And he gets really offended when people, especially Richard Hammond, starts to claw their hands on tires. All we know is, he's called the Stig.
"Some say, that he is still wearing the very same shirt to this very day" "And if you we're to tell him to change his clothes, he will take you to gambon and tell you to stand there, to watch a hot lap" "All we know is, he's called the Stig"

I'll give Hammond this: he did pull a few good Stig jokes, my personal favourite being "and if he went on Celebrity Love Island they'd all be pregnant, including the cameramen!" But Clarkson could really keep it rolling and then some!
Some say that he thinks COVID-19 is some kind of nuclear weapon. And that he sends valentine cards to every woman and man who‘s appeared naked in Game of Thrones.
I was sitting here thinking it would be cool if I could draw because there's so many creative ideas I have that you could draw of the stig from the some say gags. Like a potato on an alter where the potato has a glory effect around it and the stig face down to the floor in a praying position.
I would love to see an artist's rendition of what the stig actually looks like under his suit based on their descriptions of him. It would be utterly horrifying.
Some say he holds the world record for most rice cookers impaled on a single stick, and that he stores a spare helmet in his left boot. All we know is he's called the stig!
18:05 When Clarkson is telling the joke about Pirelli Condoms, if you watch carefully you see that the blokes are laughing at the joke before the women. You can probably work out a reason for this....
Some say that he once drove a Zamboni from Winnipeg to a Tim Hortons in Saskatoon. And that after he was told seven times he still doesn’t get curling. All we know is he’s not the Stig... But he is the Stig’s Canadian cousin!
