Hope he pulls through. He's been taken to the neuro unit, so it could be anything really. Hope it's not any form of severe trauma. Brain injury - long rehab and possible change in personality, etc, etc. Not great. Everything crossed for him and his family. Sound bloke

Apparently he was in some sort of jet propelled car, parachute deployed, pulled it sideways, flipped and rolled...lots.<br>
<br>
Fingers crossed that he recovers fully.<br>

lastest news this morning on the hampster is that he is stable condition and regained conciousness (is that spelt right?)<br>

I bet that was more scary than rolling the bedford rascal.<br>

They've pictures of the car up on the BBC website, looks as if it stayed in more or less one piece and the roll cage is still in place, which I guess can only be good news.<br>
<br>
Get well soon.

A worthy cause indeed. It's good to think that a service like that is available when we go and do silly things in cars.

Just seen on BBC news that he's out of intensive care, which is good.
