Unhappy Richard Hammond

I've just watched the news and went cold ,Richard Hammond is in a critical condition after crashing in a jet propelled car doing 280 MPH. Dont know if anyone shares their like for him as i do ,but i think his a top bloke who has me glued to the box. Im just praying he pulls through as it would be a great loss .
