RICHARD Hammond made a VERY crude joke about Jeremy Clarkson in hilarious bloopers from The Great Escapists.
The Grand Tour co-host has joined forces with Mythbusters Tory Belleci for a new survival series on Amazon Prime Video.
Richard, 51, is shipwrecked on a desert island with Tory, and the pair not only have to survive but create a ‘paradise island’.
Each episode sees them take on huge feats of engineering as they work with the materials from the shipwreck and what they find on the island, but as this exclusive X-Ray clip reveals, things didn’t always go to plan.
As well as struggling to make suitable rafts and gadgets, Richard is also seen making a crude joke about his Grand Tour co-host Jeremy in one behind-the-scenes blooper.
Richard and Tory were preparing to race vehicles they had built across the sand, and had placed a stuffed sack in the shape of a person on top of a structure with a checkered flag.
Having named it Jeremy, the pair had fixed a wire to its hand which they could pull and get the flag to drop and give the signal to start the race, but the blooper reel reveals it repeatedly didn’t work.
Tory joked: “Maybe I should have tied it a little bit better, it’s not easy pulling off Clarkson.”
Richard cheekily replied: “I thought it would have been easier than that.”
In the trailer for the series, Richard was seen making another joke at Jeremy’s expense, picking up a discarded football on the sand and saying: “Old, leathery and out of shape…I shall call you Clarkson”.
Elsewhere in the blooper reel, which can be found via X-Ray by pressing up on your Fire TV remote or tapping on your mobile screen to access more bonus content, Richard was seen getting tongue-tied while making a concoction with seaweed.
The star is also seen struggling to light a fire in an oven he had built with Tory as well as a large bazooka-style weapon he had created himself with the shipwrecked material.
The Great Escapists launches today, Friday January 29 on Amazon Prime Video.
