Richard Hammond

You've all probably heard about the crash that Hammond was involved in yesterday. I've put up a slideshow that Jolene89 created just to remind ourselves what a funny guy he is and that we all wish him well. BBC is reporting: "Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond is improving but remains seriously ill in hospital after he crashed a jet-powered car during filming for the BBC show."

"He was initially reported to have suffered serious head injuries and was taken to the neurological unit of Leeds General Infirmary by helicopter. The hospital confirmed that his wife was at his bedside and, at the request of his family, no further information would be released.

Jeremy Clarkson, who was visiting the hospital, said many motorists were "rooting for" Hammond. ..."I would just like to say how heartened Richard will be when I tell him just how many motorists and truck drivers on my way here wound down their windows to say they were rooting for him." Referring to Hammond by his nickname, Clarkson added: "Both James and I are looking forward to getting our hamster back."
