If you thought a heart attack would turn Jeremy Clarkson into a gentle yoga instructor, you have not been paying attention. Two months later, he was back on The Grand Tour, driving a hideously overpowered car through a swamp.
He’s now a full-time farmer on Clarkson’s Farm. He still yells at tractors, swears at sheep, and panics about the weather. Does he seem like a man who’s learned to relax? Not one bit.
But here’s the twist: he says the heart attack made him appreciate things more. He spends more time with his family. He’s slightly less grumpy. “Slightly” being the key word.
The Moral of the Story (If There Is One)
So, when did Jeremy Clarkson have a heart attack? December 2017. But when did he actually listen to his body? Probably never. He’s a 65-year-old man who still acts like a lad at a car show.
If you ever feel a rhino sitting on your chest, don’t ignore it. Don’t think you’re too tough. Even Jeremy Clarkson—the man who once drove a car into a shed for fun—had to go to the hospital.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go eat a steak. Because if Clarkson can survive a blocked artery and still eat steak, so can I. Cheers, Jeremy. You madman.
