‘The Grand Tour’ Host Jeremy Clarkson Reveals He Was ‘Days Away’ From Death: ‘The Vultures Stopped Circling and Swooped Down for a Closer Look’


Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he was hospitalized for a possible heart attack after experiencing worrying symptoms.

“The Grand Tour” host Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he was “days away” from death after suffering symptoms similar to a heart attack. The 64-year-old was on vacation in the Indian Ocean earlier this month when he experienced a number of symptoms such as loss of strength in his limbs, “acres” of pain after he “belly flopped” off a boat, and a newfound difficulty swimming and climbing the stairs. “It was there, on day four, the vultures stopped circling and swooped down for a closer look,” the Clarkson wrote in his weekly Sunday Times of London column, adding that he spent the remainder of his vacation sitting in a chair “drinking wine and eating cheese.”
