Top Gear is back as Paddy McGuinness fears for his life in Wall of Death stunt in our first look at the new series
by Jessica GibbTOP Gear is back with a bang in our world exclusive first look at the new series.
Paddy McGuinness fears for his life in the adrenaline-fuelled trailer as he takes on a terrifying Wall of Death stunt alongside fellow hosts Freddie Flintoff and Chris Harris.
"They've gone, 'How do we get the ratings? We'll kill them all,'" Paddy complains.
He buckles up regardless and admits "this does not feel good" as the boys whizz around a makeshift motordrome in old insurance write-offs.
But that's not the only death-defying stunt in the new series.
The trio can also be seen hurtling down a ski slope in Cyprus in €30 rental cars and Paddy plummets head-first on a zipline in north Wales.
Elsewhere in the trailer, the boys spent 24 hours in Bolton and have to stay in their cars for the duration of their trip.
They also race electric cars inside an empty Alton Towers Theme Park.
And The Stig drives a tank - because why not.
Elsewhere, the boys test drive 200mph cars from the 80’s and 90’s.
Chris drives a Ferrari F40 - possibly the greatest supercar of all time.
Freddie tries a Jaguar XJ220 and Paddy takes his ill-fated spin in the Lamborghini Diablo.
Fans are also given a glimpse of the moment Paddy lost control of the £250,000 Lamborghini.
The car – capable of speeds of more than 200 miles an hour – was wrecked after the crash in the Yorkshire Dales.
Top Gear returns to BBC One for it's 29th series later this year.
