Mr. Bean’s done it again. British actor Rowan Atkinson, famous for his portrayal of the bumbling Mr. Bean, is recovering in a hospital after a car accident late Thursday night. Atkinson was driving one of the world’s fastest road cars, the million-dollar McLaren F1 supercar, which can reach 240 mph and is one of only 100 manufactured. Atkinson’s car spun out of control before crashing into a road sign and catching fire. The actor escaped with only a fractured shoulder blade, and stayed in the hospital overnight. Atkinson races cars as a hobby, and has a collection of rare and expensive cars.
