It happened during filming of a stunt for Top Gear, of course, and James May was aboard a camper van held aloft by an airship, or blimp, or if you prefer, dirigible. Strong winds blew the blimp off course, and it ended up on its side in a farmer's field off the A428, the Daily Mail reported. May emerged unharmed, but the winds evidently precluded shooting another take. Thanks to Bob Holland for the tip.
