    For those wondering, Jezza did get in the sled on one of the runs but the one you see on tape is with him at the back on his phone when they take off. He narrated his experience and they dubbed it over another run for some reason.

    When I was in the Police force, we did several things for various charities. One of them being parachuting. We trained with the Armed services at the Joint Services Parachute Centre at Netheravon probably 28 years ago. I enjoyed it so much, I returned a couple of weeks later to jump again. The Instructors were pleased to see me and after jumping again, put me on a parachute packing course, which was great. I continued jumping there for a while until meeting my fiancé (now wife), who wasn't interested in joining me, so I gave up. However, I wanted to do other things and tried to get a group together so that we could do the Cresta Run for charity. We never did, but I look back on that time with amazement that I didn't have the fear that I do now!

    I rode a bobsleigh at lake placid in the summertime. It was on roller blade wheels. We only reached a top speed of 55-60 mph, but we set the fastest time that day. The driver was a professional but the rest of the crew was comprised of myself, my sister, and my father. The entire time my sister kept hitting her head against mine due the g-forces being stronger than her neck. This turned what was an otherwise enjoyable ride into a painful one, and left me with a headache at the end.

    After watching this video: I think Hammond should use this on him every time Jeremy brings up his accidents behind the wheel.
    Jeremy: Can you think of anything worse than you behind the wheel?
    Richard: We can try bobsledding!
