Dude you're insane! And btw. How many cousins do you have?
Ben collins eats green weenies
Why this man doesnt have his own podcast or vlog?
I’ve actually heard of people that knew they wanted a job in the CIA as a small kid and they made it a point to not have there picture taken whenever possible so when the time came to get the job they could point to the fact there were not up to date photos of themselves!
I remember Ben actually appeared as himself in an early Topgear episode where someone had to to land a parachute in the back of an open top car and it was Ben who was the driver
Great vid! thanks for uploading. Absolutely loved watching TopGear and seeing the Stig rip up that circuit. Legend.
His book is a fantastic read! Definitely recommend it!
Fake news! We all know that Roger Auerbach is the real The STIG! ;P
The application process is obvious: They asked him to write an essay about ducks.
I been on a top gear binge, the stig came out and took off his helmet. It was a different guy, same outfit.
Hmz when you squeeze your eyes a bit then I would've sworn he is the lost brother of Matthew Perry
My dad always told me The Stig was Schumacher 🤣
The stig was my hero back then, making every car his bitch no matter how powerful it was.
Favourite lap – Koenigsegg.
And THIS is why the Stig doesn't speak! Yawn
The stig is the greatest character ever 🤣
This is amazing, what a life, you’re getting paid handsomely and you don’t have to worry about paparazzi in your face
Great story Ben 😊
Talk about coming out of the closet 💪
The black Stig! Yeah I remember being pissed that he suddenly got white!
(Autist here who doesn't really like change. 😛 )
Still shouldn't have revealed the identity. The mystery would make him more of a legend. Kinda ruined now.
Some say that he’s a robot from the distant future that chose to drive cars extremely fast instead of wiping out humanity. And, that a piece of his brain is used in the production of every single Xbox. All we know is, he’s called the Stig
"You kinda throw the cat amongst the pigeons, throwing a racing driver into a room full of tv people" 😂
Amazing to hear about the production behind the scenes!
Wilman sounds like he’s as much of a tosser as Clarkson.
I still remain impressed Ben managed to keep it a secret for so long. It's the age of the Internet and Wikileaks, and yet we don't know the identity of one of the most famous people in the world? Incredible.
Ben, you made The Stig entirely your own.
And we all freaking loved you. The other Stigs were pale imitations of your genuinely awesome product.
You must have had some of the funniest moments it's possible to have. Bravo.
I always assumed the stig was multiple different drivers
Some say, the Stig’s racing suit is woven from threads of pure horsepower
So sad what the Grand Tour has devolved to. Obviously, cant have the STIG, but great races and more would have made it more interesting.
Happy to have lived best teen years watching top gear,Ben Collins is equally legendary alongside the trio.
This guys a ledgend and actually replied to a few comments witch is cool to see, used to love watching the stig all the way from australia
Ha I love how his own girlfriend didn't know he was The Stig but us internet geeks did after he spoke with a Dutch journalist and we match his voice.
Some Say………
CIA Stig. So good 😆
The story of the Stig is the best, so many years and no one knew who he was. And to hear a bit of behind the scenes is always intriguing 🙌🏼🥷🏻
That's the one thing that amazed me about Wilman – the quality of what they put out was so damn consistent, and though it was the same format for near 20 years, it still managed to not get stale.
Driving amazing cars on track on TV and you get to keep your privacy on the street. Absolute effing win win
I read his autobiography when I was 11 and thought he was the coolest person ever
“Some Say”
THE STIG was the best thing that ever happened to Top Gear.
