A Near-Death Experience at 300 MPH

Lying in a weeks long coma after being involved in a car crash at 300 miles per hour, you may wonder about the life path that led Richard Hammond to that hospital bed and the personality behind his miraculous recovery.

From a short school boy desperate for attention to one of the nations favourite trio of petrol heads, Richard has always been either driven or driving. Despite labelling himself just a very lucky guy and thinking success was for other people, his infectious enthusiasm has made him a national icon.

In this wide ranging conversation Richard discusses everything from why Top Gear was the success it was, what he saw on the brink of death, and why cars have always had such a deep emotional appeal to him.
