Jeremy Clarkson, the star of Clarkson’s Farm, gave a hint about his own mortality. This was just months before he had heart surgery towards the end of last year.
The 64 – year – old revealed in October that he had a stent put in his heart. This was after a “sudden deterioration” in his health. His symptoms included chest tightness. Since then, he has changed some of his lifestyle habits. In an interview with The Guardian in April last year, Jeremy said he was becoming more worried about his mortality. He thought he might have less than a decade left.
He was quoted as saying, “I don’t have long. I’ve probably only got what, 70,000 hours left, maybe?” This comment came back to people’s attention after his recent health scare. Jeremy talked about his surgery in a Sunday Times column. He described his recent health problem. It started when he had trouble using stairs while on holiday abroad. When he got home, his condition “suddenly deteriorated.”
He remembered feeling “clammy.” He had chest “tightness” and a “pins and needles” feeling in his left arm.
Fearing a heart attack, he got medical help and was taken to the hospital. After tests, doctors ruled out a heart attack. Jeremy said he had an “extremely urgent” operation. They found that one of his arteries was completely blocked, and another was close to being blocked.
