    The Stig can speak!

    I dont know if this is a repost, frankly i dont care.

    http://www.finalgear.com/news/2007/0...e-stig-speaks/

    Its a dutch promo vid and about 7/8ths the way through the chick finally grabs the stig and we get some words out of him.

    Only thing i can pick is he isnt British from the sound of it unless any British locals want to fight about it.

    Anyways, have a look n see.
    The Datto will rage again...

    At first I thought it was the Hamster... But the size wasn't the same so that can't be him...

    I always thought it might be some ex-F1 driver. Damon Hill, Mansell or perhaps Johnny Herbert...

    It's Ben Collins, sometimes it is other people depending on either manufacturer requests (Renault F1 car, Mercedes SLR) or availability.

    This has been known for a long time.

    You suck at identifying accents.

    That was just an offhand comment that was never confirmed:
    Ben Collins

    According to this, however, he's been suspected to be a few people, and probably has been more than one person over the years.

    There was also Ms Halliwell's comment that "Ben is such a great teacher" that the Wiki seems to have missed.

    The first stig was Damon Hill. When he was on the show, it was only because the original guest couldn't make it.

    in the 2007 episodes, the stig is fatter than past years, so they mustve used someone else?

    I bet the BBC wish they could afford Damon Hill; he really doesn't need the money. First Stig was Perry Mcarthy ... he even said so himself in his biography. Pretty certain the current Stig is Ben Collins.

    Who knows who The Stig is? It would seem like it is Ben Collins but that could be a load of crap as well. It is best that we don't know who The Stig is. When the Dutch lady interviewed him (I saw this on youtube before) it could just be someone else in The Stig's uniform, who knows?

    The Stig is best left as a mystery.

    It isn't a mystery, it is Ben Collins (apart from when it isn't).

    That is not exciting at all.
