Check out Top Gear’s special minisite for everyone’s favorite tamed racing driver. It’s got videos, a “Some say” segment, and “The Stig is listening to” portion. There’s also a cool photo of The Stig on which you can hover your mouse and display some of these facts about him (it?):
- He has a swivelling head
- When he blinks, you can hear a noise like a camera shutter
- No one knows what the LEDs on his neck mean
- These aren’t gloves; his hands really look like this
- You need to squirt this bit with WD40 every six months (or every 5,000 miles, whichever is sooner)
- He can only digest meat. And rocks
- His buttocks are the same spec as the tiles on the bottom of the Space Shuttle
- He has a group of freckles in the shape of Sir Jackie Stewart
- Both his hearts have variable valve timing
- One of his knees seems to attract cats
- One of his legs is hydraulic
- When he walks his feet make a sort of wah-wah guitar noise
- This bit bends the wrong way
