Summary
Former cricketer Andrew Flintoff has shared details about his recovery following a serious car accident while filming for BBC’s Top Gear in December 2022, describing it as a time of deep fear and uncertainty. He revealed that he initially believed his injuries were so severe that he might not recover, stating, “I thought my face had come off. I was frightened to death.” In a Disney+ documentary set to release on Friday, Flintoff credits his return to cricket as a coach over the past 18 months as “the one thing that saved me” during his struggle with the mental and physical aftermath of the accident.
