Richard Hammond describes the horrific car crash that left him in hospital

Earlier this month, Richard Hammond shared a video from a hospital bed. He'd been in a car crash while filming for The Grand Tour, and he wanted to apologise to his family.

Now he's back on his feet.

In a Drivetribe interview published Tuesday, the former Top Gear presenter described exactly what happened when he lost control of the electric supercar he was driving.

The Drivetribe video features Hammond looking through photos of the crash site, which show the craters his car left after he came off the road and rolled 100 meters down a hillside.

"I was aware that I was up, that I was high, that inevitably the car was going to come down," says Hammond in the video.

"And yeah of course there was a moment of dread -- 'Oh God, I'm going to die.'"

This isn't the first time Hammond has been in an accident while filming, either -- in March he was in a motorbike crash, and in 2006 Hammond was severely injured after trying to break the land speed record in a Vampire jet car.

After each of these accidents he's made a full recovery.
