"Because the flight was on a 747, I didn't really mind."

Comments like that make me what to knaw my own limbs off. As if to say he would have jumped up and protested if it had been a BA 777 (never mind the fact that it could also have been a BA 744). I do like Clarkson but he does show his ignorance through the use of constant hyperbole and an inability to say anything in plain english; ie, without comparing it to something outlandish or lacing it with his own brand of, usuall failing, humour.

Fair enough article but he is the kind of person who I would happily shoot if I was put in his company. Anyone else?
