Freddie Flintoff survived a 2022 Top Gear crash, suffered severe injuries and PTSD, and now advocates for mental health while coaching cricket.
Former England cricketer Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff has spoken publicly about a severe car crash during Top Gear filming in December 2022 at Dunsfold Aerodrome, England, where his vehicle flipped at about 70 km/h, causing a shattered jaw, broken ribs, and deep facial injuries.
He later revealed he developed PTSD, experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, and emotional instability that strained his relationships with his children.
Flintoff credited his recovery to family, friends, and returning to cricket, and has since resumed driving after four to five months.
The crash contributed to the BBC canceling Top Gear, and footage was featured in a documentary.
He continues to work in cricket, including coaching England’s national team, and remains active in public life, acknowledging that healing is ongoing.
