Simple youtube search brings back results proving their isnt just one stig -\>Perry McCathy [ame=“[http://youtube.com/watch?v=HEjwotgS45w](http://youtube.com/watch?v=HEjwotgS45w)”]YouTube - Perry McCarthy - Top Gear’s original Stig[/ame] [ame=“[http://youtube.com/watch?v=yeQwi-8bCEA](http://youtube.com/watch?v=yeQwi-8bCEA)”]YouTube - The Stig Real identity = Ben Collins Top Gear[/ame] [ame=“[http://youtube.com/watch?v=QdEME2hN8xY](http://youtube.com/watch?v=QdEME2hN8xY)”]YouTube - Top gear Stig Identity Ben Collins[/ame] "Once and for all this is the identity of the Stig from top gear. The Stig in Black used to be Perry McCarthy but was killed off for revealing his identity. White Stig’s name is Ben Collins and he does most of the top gear track tests but since White stig has existed there have been a few guest stigs including Heikki Kovaleinen who drove the F1 car and the Skidoo jump was done by Dan Lang a Swedish snowmobile cross rider. People wanted some proof so i had a little search and found this footage of Stig talking, compare the voice to the one of Ben Collins and… Well il let you draw your own conclusions!!! " [ame=“[http://youtube.com/watch?v=gH\_5NoX0z1I](http://youtube.com/watch?v=gH_5NoX0z1I)”]YouTube - Fernando Alonso is the Stig[/ame] "Before I start I would like to point out that Yes Perry McCarthy WAS the stig - He was the black suited stig. Here me out There is plenty of evidence: Well when The Stig was on the train, he picked up a copy of the Metro, with Lewis Hamilton celebrating a race win on the back of it. Upon seeing Hamilton, he threw the paper away in apparent disgust The Stig is a white male with dark hair The Stig has driven Alonso’s Renault F1 car around the track previously Alonso lives in Oxford, as does Jeremy Clarkson When Alonso took part in his first test for McLaren, he wore plain white overalls and a plain white helmet When Alonso first moved to Oxford, the original Stig was “killed off” by driving a Jag off an aircraft carrier" im sure theirs more. Hell i remember one episode where they called him Fat Stig…Becuase it was some fat dude…Cant find a video of it but i swear seeing it on youtube ---
