    When I heard the headline I assumed he'd fallen off that scooter he rides. Very surpised to hear what did happen.
  • normal people check to see the lift is there before stepping in!

    But alas, the moral of the story is... Never accept a lift from Stirling Moss. You'll end up shafted

    How was he not more seriously injured? He's what, 80 years old?!?!

    Oh, I know, but at the same time, I would think that anyone falling 3 stories would break both ankles at the very least! That said, he's been through worse over the years, no doubt...

    He was a real brave bastard in his day (one of my heroes as a young school boy)....the life expectancy of the average Grand Prix driver back in those days was somewhat limited.
    Nasty thing to break any bones at his age...........get well soon Stirling old fella.
