Jeremy Clarkson insists 'I'm done' after terrifying health scare as he makes huge decision

Jeremy Clarkson has announced he's done with launching new ventures after facing a string of "total disasters" with his pub and recent health scares.

The former Top Gear host, 65, dived into the hospitality game by opening The Farmer's Dog pub in August last year, following the success of his Diddly Squat farm shop.

Despite pouring £1,000,000 into the venture, Clarkson has openly spoken about the struggle to make it profitable.

With costs piling up before Christmas, Clarkson admitted to a "total disaster" and worried about getting back his investment, amid backlash for his pub's hefty prices.

Writing in his column for The Times, he shared the operational nightmares, including stolen glasses, the need to hire "a whole team of chemically trained hazmat engineers" after an incident in the loos, and dismal turkey sales, with only five turkeys sold.

Adding to the stress of running both the farm and the pub, the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? presenter had a serious health scare that saw him rushed to hospital, narrowly avoiding death.

He underwent surgery upon finding one artery was completely blocked and another nearly so, after waking up one morning feeling "clammy", with chest tightness and odd sensations in his arm.

Clarkson has now made it clear that he has no plans for any more business projects.

In a revealing chat with The Times, Clarkson has announced: "I'm done with business now. I am not starting another business as long as I live.

"I don't understand it and am not motivated by money. I just want a good craic."

These candid remarks come after the TV personality's recent health scare, which saw him undergo a procedure to have a stent fitted, narrowly escaping the need for a full heart bypass.

Clarkson opened up about his health issues, revealing that he was "days from death" due to a "sudden deterioration" in his condition.

Following his health scare, Clarkson has had to make some "horrific" changes to his lifestyle, including exercising, cutting down on alcohol, and changing his diet, all of which means he's "not allowed to have fun anymore".

This comes amid Clarkson's honest confessions regarding the financial struggles of managing his pub, expressing the stress it has brought him.

He previously expressed his exasperation with the hospitality sector to The Times, saying: "It's galling to see how much effort is required to make so little money on the farm.

"It's worse at the pub. The customers are coming. There's no problem there. But turning their visits into a profit is nigh-on impossible."
