FREDDIE Flintoff has recalled how he thought his face was torn off in his horrific Top Gear crash.
The star, 47, was dragged nose down for 50 metres in the 2022 horror in Dunsfold, Surrey. He said: “I was frightened to death.”
Freddie believed his time was up in his crash, saying: “I thought I was dead. I was conscious but I couldn’t see anything. I was thinking, ‘Is that it?’ ”
The lightning-quick instincts honed as an Ashes-winning cricketer kicked in as he moved his head to avoid breaking his neck.
But that meant his face bore the brunt of the injuries, ripping open his nose, cheek and lip and knocking out most of his front teeth.
Recalling how his three-wheeled Morgan car flipped in the 2022 accident, Freddie, tells Disney+ documentary Flintoff: “As it started going over I looked at the ground and I knew if I get hit here on this side and I break my neck, or I get hit on the temple, I’m dead.
