It has been confirmed that Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson has been involved in a head-on collision during the taping of the BBC show. He suffered minor injuries to his legs, hand and back. Clarkson, 48, said, "My right index finger looked like a burst sausage, my left shin was fatter than my thigh and my back felt like someone had driven over it with a pile-driver."
Although head-on collisions are always serious, it is good news that this seems Clarkson escaped major injury. Although all details of the crash are not yet available, it will be inevitable that there will be some news sources that may compare this to the much worse accident over two years ago that almost claimed the life of Richard Hammond. We can only hope that these incidents do not give opponents to the show the power to dilute a truly unique piece of TV.
Thank you Top Gear gents for being daring enough to bring us great television.
