Clarkson Inspires Life-Saving Cancer Check
1 Jan
Summary
- Andy Hood credits Jeremy Clarkson for testicular cancer detection.
- He launched 'Check Ya Balls' underwear to raise awareness.
- Over 150 pairs sold, with proceeds to cancer charities.

A father's life was saved after watching a segment on Jeremy Clarkson's program, which encouraged men to check themselves for testicular cancer. Andy Hood, 53, realized he had been experiencing unusual symptoms and subsequently consulted his GP, leading to a diagnosis of testicular cancer.
Mr. Hood credits the television star for his survival, stating he would not have checked himself had he not seen the program. After successfully overcoming the cancer, which involved surgery and chemotherapy, he has introduced a line of underwear named 'Check Ya Balls'.
This initiative aims to promote regular self-examinations and raise awareness about testicular cancer. Over 150 pairs of the uniquely designed underwear sold within the first month, with a significant portion of the profits donated to cancer charities.
