The former England star suffered a serious accident while filming for Top Gear in 2022, enduring major facial injuries.

He speaks about the incident in depth for the first time in a new Disney+ documentary ‘Flintoff,’ which premieres on Friday, offering an unflinching account of the incident.

The film contains still images from the scene of the accident and some graphic shots of his wounds, but Flintoff’s account is even more stark.

At one stage, he admits: “After the accident I didn’t think I had it in me to get through. This sounds awful...part of me wishes I'd been killed. Part of me thinks, I wish I'd died.
