Pleading that the cow has an ‘interest in killing me’, Clarkson said: ‘It’s said a cow cannot kick backwards but I can testify to the fact that this isn’t true. A cow can kick in any direction.
‘They are like Bruce Lee, only more deadly.’
He elaborated to Daily Star: ‘Having failed to connect with her hoofs, she put her head between my legs and then raised it smartly.
‘I think this was the lowest point in my farming career to date.

The knock comes as Clarkson has been forced to close his lucrative Diddly Squat Farm Shop for two months, however no reason for the closure has been given.
The Diddy Squat Farm posted a message to customers that read: ‘Thank you to everyone who visited. Happy New Year. See you in March. Milk machine remains open 24/7.’
