Having Hammond host the programme really elevates the whole documentary.
My son says the same!! 😁
Adds every 5 min takes from it though
@@niewissen9912 adblockers solve that
Yes it actually does idk why.. I saw him first on top gear and now I only want to watch his documentaries.
It all began with National Geographic's Engineering Connections.
Seeing the paper helicopters just bobbing about was one of those things where even if you know the science and understand it, seeing it in action is trippy and brain breaking. I love demonstrations like that.
Why hasn't this documentary got tens of millions of views? It's the famous car guy talking about our fascinating nature in a really interesting way.. These shows should be promoted by schools.
Exactly! but this tells us that people are more interested in cat videos rather then something that's part of our life. Not a lot of people have got brain that's powerful enough to understand science. That is why religions are so famous among humans. Lol
@@oksyar everyone’s brain is powerful enough if exercised and science only reinforces my belief in god
Was hoping to see James May floating through some of the scenes on his caravan airship going "Golf papa golf cannot comply I have entered your airspace with no control of the airship over"
Hammond is good fit for educational vids. His sense of humor is, or the writer’s, comes across.
He explains it in a way that i understand

All of the trio did documentaries and they all rockkk hard
@@EzraDair IMHO all three should be knighted for their contributions to education and entertainment.
"Luckily freezing rain is fairly rare".... Richard Massachusetts' Winter would like a word with you.
I've always like Richard Hammond since I first watched him in Top Gear. He knows how to connect with the audience.
Such a beautiful documentary. Richard is a great narrator. Also the background music is superb . Lovely experience
You can see the pure joy on that crane operator 's face.
Growing up in Canada i never realized freezing rain was rare
Amen
Same lol jeez
Richard hammond and the rest of the filming crew are a mutipackage gift to mankind when it comes to documentary.
And to think you could be making "The Speed of Birds" right now...
From his super yacht
But thats a james and Jeremy venture
Hammond voice is legit the best
17:22 Guy: That was a fly Richard: Yeah, they're quite *tasty*
Vaiko. Richard: I fancy a blowie Local: Okay mate. Richard: I thought I was being offered a blowjob from Elle McPherson. NOT A BLOODY FLY.
Sub-subtitles, here
I absolutely love these educational videos of things we see and experience in our everyday life but don't quite understand it. All those experiments they did were for us really. Richard Hammond is awesome host for programs like these who makes it easier, more understandable and enjoyable to watch!
I love these documentaries. It's awesome Spark is willing to provide this quality for free. Thanks!
Those documentaries is pure masterpiece!
The quality of this documentary itself is good but man the quality goes to another level with Hammond, I've been binge watching these
The way Hammond explains it, so easy to digest and sensible. It's good for a dummy like me to explain to my future kids. Kids nowadays are getting more curious and it's terrifying me.
Good to see Richard Hammond in my home state of South Australia!
Fantastic Show. Actually watched it several times. Thank You very much, Richard Hammond.
Hammond has created the sword in the snow ❄️
The helicopter bit looked surreal and beautiful. Like it was a dream of a child.
How insightful! What an excellent job by the team that put this together!
Nothing better than documentaries with Richard Hammond
Wow! What I have seen here ist simply WOW!. Very good filming and editing. Thanks to the team for such a great episode. Keep going! I have never seen such a quality on TV. Never in 50 years.
His voice is so soothing and relaxing takes me 4 goes to get threw one show without sleeping love this little bloke
Who would've though Hammond would go on to be such a great host without Clarkson hogging every line lol. Excellent video
I need more hammond teaching me science and stuff.
Highly recommend engineering connections if you haven't already
27:50 Hammond utilizing the classic Jeremy Clarkson patented "SPEED AND POWAHHH" technique. You gotta love how the science and engineering programs Richard presents all have a little hint of the Top Gear sense of humor.
This is a great series, very well done and the visuals are astonishing! Cheers!
Now this is EXCELLENT!
These are truly amazing documentaries
A really kool show that teaches the important basics of weather science and how technology applications can be used to make it easier to deal with extremes. Hamster is great for this.. as are James and Jezza.. I would love to see more travel shows starring these guys alone or as a trio..
Really cool episode! I must point out though, that in order for freezing rain to happen, dust or other condensation nuclei are still needed. It starts as normal rain, but then the rain drops cool down below 0 as the rain falls through a layer of colder air. Typically this happens as warm air mass advances over a cold air mass (warm front). The clouds may appear dark not because of the composition, but because they are simply in shadow. Even one single cloud, if it's thick enough, will be bright white on the sunny side and dark gray on the opposite side. Some clouds cast shadows on others. During sunset, higher clouds will still get direct sunlight and lower clouds will be already in the dark. Speaking of size of water droplets, if direct sunlight hits rain, the rain appears white. It's just that this happens rarely (mostly at sunset), and most of the time, rain is under a thick cloud which casts shadow on it. Compacted snow does form after the layer of snow is warmed up and then cooled down, and it's not because someone cut snowflakes' arms off with a sword.
I don't think they were implying at all that the snowflakes arms were cut off with a sword at all.... They described what you said (the snow flakes are crushed during the friction of plowing and forcing the sword into the snow caused warmth, which melted them and over night it all refroze) simply in a much longer, more elaborate way to make it easier to understand, and also because if you dumbed these concepts down to their simplest possible description, then the episodes would be like 10-15 minutes long. They elaborate extensively to help people _visualize_ exactly what is happening.
@@moogle68which is what I love about these documentaries - they go into real detail about these things, rather than simply describing how things happen and leaving it at that, the explain WHY these things happen, and that’s where the real engagement and learning takes place!
I guess they don’t check his driving history from top gear and grand tour before they give him keys 😂
After watching all three episodes, i cant stop myself for wanting more... This is Top Gear and The Grand Tour all over again...
Richard is best. I've learned a lot from his documentaries. Lots of love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩💙
I can see Richard Hammond following in the foot steps Sir Tony Robinson, he's good presenting science
Richard Hammond is excellent at these types of shows.
Thank you for posting this!
Loved it, just like the other documentaries in the series...
This was a really good documentary
I Truly Enjoyed watching this Educational Video, Thank you Richard Hammond, Blessings!

truly superb
Well done my man!
Tired of the 50 adverts? Fast forward to the end and hit play again to skip them 🙏 like so this goes up
I didn't know that worked,but it does,thank you.
Can we talk about that shot of the giant snowflake that guy made? That was INCREADIBLE! 0_0 Just the amount of time and planning that had to go into making that thing, and then making it by hand (Or I guess I should say 'foot' in this case). 31:43 in case anyone was wondering.
I like Richard Hammond He narrates pretty good too! Lol 😂 I do genuinely like the shows he has been on and what he brings to them.
That's absolutely amazing with the paper helicopters. Ian we know the science should work. But to see it is spectacular
Now I know how Richard Hammond managed to cover Jeremih's car with ice on The Grand Tour "Scandi flick" episode
This is the awesomest doc i have seen
Fantastic show.
Extremely educational for a things we dont pay too much attention.
I actually learned something.. my god I’m going to do the am radio experiment.
Your work is excellent!! Love your documentaries
They're stolen :0

Richard Hammond was one of my favourite voices on the Top Gear team, Im so glad to see him doing stuff he likes.
Awesome one of Hammonds best
Thank You .
Loved!
The Hamster lives...he is "The American."
servicarrider Richard Hammond isent American he in English lol
he is brittish and lives in herefordshire
@@shaunparkinson7121 Your original post is in my notifications. This for you 2 NASA. NASA Intelligence? Really? That's a bit of a stretch, don't you think. Well, anywho, that one flew right over the top of your 2 Rocket Scientist heads, now didn't it? Did you wave the American flag as it flew overhead. I am afraid that what would be painfully obvious to any reader of average intelligence would be sure to cruise blindly right over your head like a ballistic missile armed with an obtusity warhead in the middle of a moonless fog laden October English night. The longest running gag on the show is that Hamster is not "an American," but rather "The American." Hamster has the American muscle cars, the American pickup truck, the American Stetson hat, the American cowboy boots, spent time on an American cattle ranch and loved it. Hamster is, indeed, The American. Get it, Fredo?

Wish this doc existed when I was studying GCSE Geography it would have been a lot lot more interesting. Great Doc thanks @Spark
Ah yes. GCSE Geography, when you go in thinking you'll learn about other countries and their geographical location and importance....and end up learning about long shore drift.
Brilliant stuff.
What I like most about Richard is that with him - the world is the classroom.
Freezing rain is definitely not rare here in Pittsburgh. We get it at least 3-4 times every winter and all the hills combined with an utter rubbish snow removal company means people basically play pinball trying to get to work on those days. I once had to abandon my car for a week because we kept getting freezing rain every day and it was covered in almost 2cm of ice before it got warm enough to melt.
39:15 “ I never noticed how loud fog is“ That one got me chuckling pretty good. All the science talk and then some dumbass comment was pretty funny.
I’m amazed supercritical was never mentioned during the freezing rain segment.
Awesome
Relaxing!!!!
You don't need dust to get rain.....Water has "surface tension". That pulls small drops together when the atmosphere cools down(called Condensation). The point is there are many ways every sort of weather is formed....That is why we can't predict the weather all that accurately even these days.
Awesome.
I wish I saw these videos when I was in school, would have easily become a scientist. too late now I'm an engineer.
there's nothing stopping you from studying science, plus engineering is still a good foundation to study science on.
there is another recent- 9-episode series that he covers engineering stuff, it is also fascinating and educational as this is
I have to watch this for online learning and isn't engineering part of science so you would have been a scientist anyways
@@ericzhang5542 Engineering is applied science, so it's not strictly science, but it uses science. You wouldn't call an engineer a scientist.
