Hammond meets Moss

Hammond meets Moss, the documentary film shown for the first time recently on BBC2 and BBC4, is now available on DVD from jmwdvd.co.uk, the experts in retro motorsport action.

Hammond meets Moss is the story of two big-shunt survivors.  Motor-racing legend, Sir Stirling Moss, and Top Gear presenter, Richard Hammond, both share the same life-altering experience; their lives were changed forever by terrible car accidents.

Hammond meets Moss can be purchased from jmwdvd.co.uk for £14.99 and £1 from ever DVD sold will be donated to Headway, the charity set up to help people recovering from head injuries.

Hammond meets Moss gives a fascinating insight into how Sir Stirling and Richard  recovered from their respective physical injuries.  The brain injuries caused by such major impacts meant their minds took much longer to heal than skin and bone.  But why should brain tissue take such extra time to repair itself?  And what kind of trauma does the organ go through when trying to 're-boot' itself?

In an engaging and intimate conversation these two well-known men swap stories  and exchange experiences.  Punctuated by some extraordinary medical insights and archive footage of both accidents, the DVD is a record of what happened on the fateful days when two lives changed forever.

Mixing science with sport and celebrity, this DVD is compulsive viewing.
