Jeremy Clarkson: Someone could have been killed after Top Gear attacked in Argentina
Presenter Jeremy Clarkson describes the attack on the Top Gear team in Argentina as "the most terrifying thing I've ever been involved in", after crew had to flee the country
Presenter Jeremy Clarkson has described the moment the Top Gear cast and crew were attacked by an angry crowd in Argentina as "the most terrifying thing I've ever been involved in", and warned that “someone could have been killed”.
The star and his crew on the BBC show had to abandon their cars at the roadside as they were pelted with stones.
Trouble erupted after it emerged the team were using a Porsche with the registration number H982 FKL, which some people suggested could refer to the Falklands conflict of 1982.
Mr Clarkson said the mob shouted "burn their cars" and tried to attack them with pickaxe handles.
He told The Sun: "I've been to Iraq and Afghanistan, but this was the most terrifying thing I've ever been involved in.
Mr Clarkson wrote on Twitter that “someone could have been killed” during the violence, adding: “For once, we did nothing wrong.”
He also thanked on Twitter those who had helped him and “the sensible Argentinians who have apologised”, before saying that their dramatic departure had provided an even better ending to their show.
