Yikes that sucks, good thing it doesn't sound as bad as Richard's accident in the rocket car... still, sounds bad

Not a bad record though, 31 years of driving until his first serious accident... and considering how he drives... lol

Mr. Know · 10-13-2008, 11:28 AM

Ouch! Get well soon Jeremy.

Green Ghost · 10-13-2008, 11:32 AM

i hope he gets well.........soon.

Hope he was wearing a helmet....but I don't think I've ever seen him with one on !

Clarkson's head is too big for a helmet!

He's my favorite automotive journalist. I hope he heals up okay

Get well soon big guy. We need our fix of Top Gear.

Even though Clarkson is a jackass British snob, I find him to be thoroughly entertaining and wish him a quick and full recovery.

Can't wait for top gear to return!
