It's Jeremy Clarkson. He co-hosts "TOPGEAR" a fancy sportscar tv show in the UK.
It wouldn't be the first time they used live weapons if the MG and the shotty are live....
The Rocket shot appeard to be altered digitally, though.

I'm not an expert but: The shots with over/under looked real enough and so did the test fire on GPMG.
But with the SPAS, he was shooting from the hip with no apparent recoil. Plus if you look close the rear seat window on the car blows outward toward the shot.
And as for the GPMG, take a look at the bullet holes in the passenger door. I've put plenty of 7.62s into old junk cars and those bullet holes just don't look real to me.
I think the Carl Gustav was a no brainer.

Cool video!
It's from the TV series 'Top Gear' (car show) from England.

I guess you could say that they were using an AUTO launcher.
"So what have we learned so far? Overall you'd have to say that motoring used to be more fun, really."
Brilliant!

Real or not I thought England had some of the worst gun laws around so how the hell did he have a spaz?

You think that was filmed in England? Oh yeah, now I remember, they're well known for their vast, dry, sandy deserts and hot climate.

It was filmed in Arizona on an army base if I remember correctly. It was not on Top Gear, it was on a 'made for video/DVD' film-show thing that Clarkson did.
Clarkson is very pro-gun but obviously much of this was faked.
On a side note, SPAS 12s are legal in Britain as I can vouch for:

Go Jeremy,maybe he could be commissioned to make a pro-gun tv programme,exposing the failings of our oppressive gun laws.Come on Jeremy,at least you seem to be fun,exciting and anti-establishment,in comparison with those producers,who worked on the Hungerford Massacre documentary.
A new sport for the UK:Car,trap shooting,with section 5 weapons-featuring Tony Blair and David Blunkett. Mr Blunkett is definately an anti-gun bigot.
Launching the anti-gun campaigners cars on a catapult,then blowing them up,sounds like fun to me,considering the fact that they would do their upmost,to destroy our shooting sports and heritage.

The video is fun to watch, but I'm not buying that a TV host is going to be able to hit a RAPIDLY moving target with a Carl Gustav....
Speaking of the Gustav, somebody check me here, but aren't they more like a recoiless rifle than a rocket launcher? If so, no rocket trail.

Nope, a three round (or less) capacity shotgun (break action/semi/pump) is legal on a shotgun certificate.
Anything with more than three round capacity must be held on an FAC (firearms licence).
I WANT THAT SPAS 12 FOSBERY!

If only there were more Brits out there like this guy.
That's all I'm saying.

Jeremy hates American cars (and it seems most things American) and is biased against them on his show. Its so obvious when he trashes Corvettes on a performance car show, even though they outperform anything British or European within twice their price. A much better show is 5th Gear with Tiff Needle, now that guy can actually drive a car!
