Jeremy Clarkson shares gruesome injury after playing 'dangerous' sport

Jeremy Clarkson has shared a nasty injury on Instagram.

The Clarkson’s Farm star, 65, took to social media to tell his 8.9million followers that pickleball can be a ‘dangerous’ sport - sharing a picture of a gruesome hand injury.

The post was flooded with comments, with a lot of fans asking how he managed to sustain the injury.

One joked: “You seemed to have gotten your self into a right pickle there Jeremy!”

Pickleball combines parts of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong, and while the cult sport dates back to 1965 in the US, it has only recently seen a surge of popularity here across the pond.

Recently, Clarkson shut down James May’s claims that he won’t be appearing in The Grand Tour reunion specials.

Earlier this month, May claimed Clarkson was absent from the four retrospective Grand Tour episodes that will be released later this year and in 2026 which look back over the best moments from the Amazon Prime motoring show.

“Well, I’m afraid it’s not a reunion. The Not Very Grand Tour is essentially a best-of compilation hosted from the studio by me and Richard Hammond,” May, 62, told Al Arabiya News host Tom Burges Watson on his show.

“Jeremy Clarkson wasn't available for some reason, but we're all in the clips. It's all things you've seen before, but chopped up in a different way. We recorded it a while back. I can't remember why he couldn't be there. He was probably busy.”

Clarkson refuted May’s claims, writing on X: “I fear the poor old dear has become senile. Because while he can’t remember me being there, I can.”

A fan replied jokingly, “To be fair, May has been 85 years old for the last 40 years lol,” to which the former Top Gear host quipped back: “He was 85 when he was born.”

Another fan asked why they were releasing special episodes after airing a two-hour finale in September, which saw Clarkson, May, and Richard Hammond travel to Zimbabwe.

“Didn't y'all end that s**t? What was that emotional ‘final’ episode for?” the user questioned.

“To be clear, there are some ‘best ofs’ coming. Zimbabwe was the last one. I have too many cows now to go swanning off,” Clarkson responded, referencing the farm he looks after in the Cotswolds.
