Si King previously opened up about how he nearly died after suffering a terrifying brain aneurysm.
The presenter, 58, has been a staple on screens for years, along with best mate, the late Dave Myers. Dave tragically passed away in February 2024 aged 66 after a cancer battle.
However, Si – who is on Hairy Bikers’ Best of British today (September 20) – also had a serious health scare a few years back, when he was rushed to hospital for life-saving surgery.

Si King’s health scare
In 2014, Si was home alone watching the rugby on TV when ‘players began falling off the screen’.
He told MailOnline: “I thought, I’m in trouble here. Then I had this searing pain – the only way to describe it was like someone was going at my head with a rusty nail and a hammer.”
Having already battled a crippling headache for four days, Hairy Bikers star Si decided to go to the hospital – but things were set to take a terrifying turn.
