‘Top Gear’ Host Chris Harris Tells Joe Rogan: I Warned BBC “Someone Is Going To Die” Before Freddie Flintoff Crash Forced Show Off Road


In a Joe Rogan interview, Chris Harris says he warned the BBC that "someone is going to die" on 'Top Gear' months before Freddie Flintoff's crash.

Top Gear presenter Chris Harris has ripped open the bonnet on one of the darkest chapters in the motoring show’s history — and it makes ugly listening for the BBC. In 2023, BBC Studios revealed that an independent health and safety review found that Top Gear complied with policies and industry best practices, but recommended that “increased clarity on roles and responsibilities and better communication between teams” was needed if the show returns. Harris said the shoot at Dunsfold Park on the day of Flintoff’s accident was “rushed.” He was driving a three-wheeled open-top Morgan Super 3, which flipped over, causing facial injuries and broken ribs.
