Jeremy Clarkson struggling to assemble a cardboard box is funnier than you'd think

Jeremy Clarkson may be good at cars and stuff, but when it comes to assembling cardboard boxes his skills leave a little to be desired.

In the clip above, Clarkson is presented with the "DHL box challenge" -- basically an attempt to assemble a DHL box in the quickest time possible, while James May and Richard Hammond sit on the sidelines hurling abuse at him.

"I'm not a practical man," explains Clarkson as the two minute mark hits and the box is still very much unassembled. Still, he gets there in the end.
