'Hammond Meets Moss' is the story of two big-shunt survivors. 'Top Gear' presenter Richard Hammond and motor-racing legend Sir Stirling Moss OBE both share the same life-altering experience; they had their lives changed forever by terrible car accidents. The pair recovered quickly from their respective physical injuries, the acquired brain injuries of those major impacts meant their minds took much longer to heal. But why should brain tissue take such extra time to repair itself than skin and bone? And what kind of trauma does the organ go through when trying to 're-boot' itself? In an engaging and intimate conversation - punctuated by some extraordinary medical insights and archive footage of both of their accidents - these two well-known men exchange their experiences. Mixing science with sport and celebrity, this documentary film makes fascinating viewing.
