Seems I was right about Richard Hammond. Word on the street (and thanks to Huggy Bear for his input) is that he had burr-holes done for an extradural haematoma. Pleased to see he is making a swift recovery.
To be frank, if you're going to have a significant brain injury, you could do a lot worse than have an extradural. Anything else is likely to be non-specific mushed brain, for which there is little effective treatment. But a rapidly expanding collection of extravasated blood ('extra'- outside, 'vas' - vessel) can be easily cured by someone weilding a power tool in a medical way.
More disturbingly, there are apparently copies of Mr. Hammond's CT scan alread being circulated via e-mail. I hope he has a good agent. Someone should copyright those.
