It's rare that you'll see a Jason Statham film without a car chase, but he wasn't always a legal, tyre-squealing petrol head. In fact, Statham says he failed his driving test two or three times before being let loose by the DVLA onto the roads of Britain, giving hope to learners up and down the country. Statham admitted that at the age of just 15, he was already helping his Dad with driving long journeys, and confessed to Jay Leno that he would drive to the test, fail, then hop in the car and drive home. It would take a brave man to fail him... Even if he was only 15.
