This should go down in history as one of the best bits of Top Gear ever.
Don't watch it with a full bladder.

As with Steve Irwin, if you play with fire you're gonna get burnt.
People's quest for childish excitement and the proverbial "Adrenaline Rush " ( yawn ) is a sign that some people have too much time and money and little sense. @
Lecture over, I wish the wee fella a full recovery, we can't have Clarkson lording it on Top Gear can we ?

I've gotta agree with Mr_Floppy. This wouldn't be the first BBC program to be quietly removed after a stunt goes badly wrong. Yes, if you play with fire, you get burnt, as Steve Irwin indeed found out.
I used to be a big fan of Top Gear but it has become so outrageous over the past few years, from driving cars off of Aircraft Carriers to some of the recent stunts they've pulled, something had to go wrong sooner or later.
But, all the best to him, that is something I wouldn't wish on anyone, makes you realise how fragile life can be.
Bruce.

Awful thing to happen. Seems like a genuinely nice bloke and his love of cars is evident.
Rooting for you, Richard

Just mentioned this on unleashed, The top gear website has a contacts page, how about sending a good wishes type message to hamster and family as a group from fordscorpio.co.uk
Yes they probably will be inundated with similar messages but I think it would be better as a group as apposed to individuals.
Any thoughts
As an update just been on the news apparently he is on his feat and has taken a few steps this has to be good news
