“… On my next Crash Course, someone else’s life is at risk for once – as I become a Barber in Harlem!”
“‘long as you don’t cut any skin off, that’s okay.”
Don’t miss an all new episode of RICHARD HAMMOND’S CRASH COURSE *** Monday Nov 19 at 10/9c *** only on BBC America.
“Hamster” has operated giant pieces of machinery, but this week, can Richard keep a steady-enough hand to give a proper Harlem style haircut at Levels Barbershop in NYC?
Then, Richard already knows how helicopters fly, as an owner and pilot of a Robinson R44 helicopter – but now, he’s going to learn how they’re built.
Joining the nearly 1,300 person workforce at Robin Helicopter Factory in Torrence, CA, he must help build and test fly a brand new helicopter, the R66 Turbine. But will his creation be cleared for take-off?
He’s back in America… and out of his comfort zone!
In this season of RICHARD HAMMOND’S CRASH COURSE, HAMMOND will immerse himself in uniquely American — and often terrifying! — vocations. In each episode, he’ll tackle new challenges, with less than five days to master each job.
Can he conquer his fear of heights and jump from the top of a bridge as a Hollywood stuntman? Will he lose his grip (and suffer a venomous bite) when he takes on the role of a snake wrangler? From the true grit of a Texas cattle ranch to driving a taxi in New York City, you never know what Richard will tackle next!
Don’t miss as Richard gets to be an American Bullfighter, Barber, Hollywood Stuntman, New York Cab Driver, Pro Paddle Boarder, Cattle Rancher, Bike Messenger, Pit Crew Guy, Stand-up Comedian, Exotic Animal Keeper, “Rocket Scientist” and Snake Wrangler.
