Now imagine doing it nearly 100 years ago without a century’s of advanced technology or a $250k vehicle. Now that’s a record.

Gotta admit, that Bentley was gorgeous. And to the driver! Well done mate, take a bow.

Congratulations to Idris Elba with this speed on Wet Sand.

Congratulations Idris Elba, who piloted a Bentley to break the historic 'Flying Mile' UK land speed record set by Sir Malcolm Campbell in 1927. The award-winning actor hit a top speed of 180.361 mph at the wheel of a new Continental GT Speed on Pendine Sands, Wales 🚗🏆🏅🎊

They're using the Bentley cuz it's awd people lol

so you'd in your 190mph experience would use 2wd as it's safer? I'd call costco for more tissues but they've run out!

Good show. I'm so late. Nice history line

Cool video!

"Where's Wallace? Where the fuck is Wallace? Huh? Huh? String? String? Look at me! Where the fuck is Wallace? HUH!?"

Idk why I thought he was about to fly a plane

And to think Idris did it in a stock Continental GT Speed, complete with rear seats!

funny comment .. i was thinking the same thing ... why not remover the seats, the rear view mirrors (whatsa behind me is nota importanta -- movie : The Gumball Rally) ... the trunk lining, etc ..

Nice.

A Big Mac is tasty

Adrenaline 👏🏽🤩

Try driving the same car as Sir Malcolm Campbell, I beat Charles Lindbergh time across the Atlantic the last time I went to England, and I want alone there were 130 of us, what a joke very underwhelmed 😣

Oh GOD he really put his foot on the top that pedal !! SUCH driving skills ! Thank god he had a BENTLEY with "speed" written on every square foot on it !!!

How fast have YOU driven a vehicle? Any idea what happens past 120mph? Any clue what kind of shit can go wrong at that speed? I've been 189mph. One time. Never again. Unless you've actually BEEN that fast - you have zero idea what you're talking about.

NO WAY is he 88 years old. awesome video and i wish to own a bentley!

I like Iris Elba but this is embarrassing. Not to give credit to driving that fast on sand which is very ballsy, but to compare that record to the 1927 one is sad.

he s got hair like JEWish guys

Notice no one got in with him.

could do that with literally anything other than a heavyweight like that Bentley.

None of this makes sense.
