Break the British land speed record
September 21, 2006Richard “the hamster” Hammond has been admitted to a hospital after getting seriously injured during a car crash while filming for the BBC’s international hit Top Gear. He was trying to break the British land speed record in a rocket engined car. His situation is critical, but stable.
Richard Hammond, who together with James “captain slow” May and Jeremy Clarkson hosts Top Gear, is one of my heroes. Let’s hope that for him and his family, as well as all of us Top Gear fans all over the world, his admittance to the hosptial will be a short one, and that he will soon conintue to work to make Top Gear one of the best, if not the best, television show ever made.
