Three-time Global Rallycross champion and record-holding stunt driver Tanner Foust rates 10 car-chase scenes in movies, such as “No Time to Die” and “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift,” for realism.
Foust breaks down the realism of racing on different surfaces in “No Time to Die” (2021), “Mad Max: Fury Road” (2015), and “Die Another Day” (2002), with Pierce Brosnan. He also looks at the accuracy of car-stunt techniques in “Transporter 3” (2008), “The Dukes of Hazzard” (2005), and “Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation” (2015), starring Tom Cruise. He looks at whether scenes are real or done with the help of CGI in “Free Guy” (2021), “Smokey and the Bandit” (1977), and “Police Story” (1985), starring Jackie Chan. He also breaks down his own drifting techniques in “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift” (2006).
Foust has been a race car and stunt driver for over 25 years. He is a three-time US rallycross champion, four-time X Games gold medalist, and two-time Formula Drift champion. He also holds multiple world records, including the longest jump in a four-wheel vehicle, which was 332 feet. He was also a cohost of the American version of the motor television series “Top Gear.”

10:08 W211 MY BELOVED ❤🎉🔥
Edit 10:17 😦
Some explanations were good, but somebody forgot to tell this guy that "realism" means "this can happen in real life under normal circumstances" and not "with the appropriate amount of preparation, a huge stunt crew, multiple identical cars at the disposal and nobody sitting inside them because the crash would kill everybody, you can make this scene happen". And what I'm still wating for is the explanation why in almost every car chase one of the drivers has to say "hold on" (12:50) sometimes repeatedly. By experience, the less it's said, the more realistic the scene is.
I really feel like Bullit, both Gone in 60 seconds, and need for speed should have been in there
Older cars had a speed limiter in reverse too. We called it "low gearing". I do drive modern European cars such as BMWs in high performance scenarios, and have never come across any speed limiter other than the regular rev-limiter combined with the normally low ratio reverse gear. In fact, in the current M3, reverse gear is half as short again as first, in the 6sp manual, which can easily knock 20mph off its top speed in first when bouncing off the limiter.
Smokey and the bandit, well that really needs some pictures of Xrays of people who have had frontal impacts with feet on the dashboard. Not a clever way to sit. They didn't hire race car drivers to do stunts back then, they hired stunt drivers who knew more than just driving round a track 🙂
Forget Tokyo Drift, think Ronin, or better yet French Connection, they didn't even get a permit to close the streets for the latter. The director sat in the car with the stunt driver who mingled with Joe Public on the streets for 20 blocks across NY. Was it smart to do it that way, certainly not, was it an astounding display of car control, and cinematography (almost all a single take) undoubtedly.
Miss you and the American Top Gear show SO much! Know it's blasphemous, but never cared… And still don't… About Clarkson and the British show. You and Rutledge and… Adam? It was gold. Please bring back, but all original cast
Damn no ronin
Tanner Foust is a legend
I'm not ok that Bullitt wasn't included in this list.
Love to see this man's take on some of the stunts from Initial D.
It semi annoys me that basically at the end he just chooses himself as the best haha
i wish that all the experts on this show would bring a model car/bike/plane/etc so they wouldn't need to use there hand to show how an object would spin or turn over in mid air.
Wanker
I love Tanner.
Would love to see you guys do Hooper, as it is actually about Stuntmen.
Man appreciate on cobblestone history more than classic db5 history. What a guy. He’s the expert on a many type of car race but he did appreciate a lot of other things
Not having baby driver has got to be illegal
I love this guy.
I love this,a real stunt driver breaking it down
❤😂
Tell me someone's going to get Tanner to talk about Steve McQueen's car chase in Bullitt.
Jackie Chan probably did it on one take
Tanner foust looks like American Kimi raikkonen. I love it. 2 of my favorite drivers
Beautiful
2024 and I still love the old topgear us😢
