John Barrowman seems to have all the luck at the moment.
The popular actor, who portrays Captain Jack Harkness in Torchwood, managed to survive a terrifying high-speed crash after losing control of his car.

Barrowman, 42, whose character on the show cannot die, was filming a slot for Fifth Gear when the accident happened.

Lucky escape: Somehow John received only cuts and bruises in the violent crash

He was taking part in a race in Powys, Wales, with Fifth Gear presenter Tiff Needell, who was in the passenger seat when the crash happened.

The £120,000 Subaru slid down a verge, flipped four times and almost went into a lake at the bottom of the hill, according to the News of the World.
Paramedics pulled Barrowman and Needell out, and removed shattered glass from Barrowman's eye before he was taken to hospital.

Because Barrowman was in a car with a rollcage, fire extinguisher and loads of other safety equipment. Diana was in a normal car being chased by the paparazzi. Big difference.

Neither Barrowman or Needell were drunk and had chosen stupidly to drive/be a passenger in a car despite the immense danger involved.

I dont even like JB but that comment was a little off.
