Jeremy Clarkson threatened to "hunt down" a 12-year-old boy who took his picture while he was on holiday in Barbados.
The Top Gear host reacted in fury after he was snapped by youngster Tom Dickman when he was asleep on a beach.
Clarkson confronted the boy on the day after the picture had been taken. He ranted: "Are you the little *******er that took my picture? If you do that again or it goes on the internet I will hunt you down and rip your *******ing head off." Tom then burst into tears and sought comfort from his father.
"I saw it all happen," Tom's dad Chris told the Sunday Mirror. "Tom was a huge fan of Top Gear and Clarkson was his hero. He watched the show every week and even asked me to buy him the DVDs for Christmas and birthdays.
"He was so proud when he come back the day before to show me his little digital camera and say, 'I've just taken a picture of Jeremy Clarkson'. I was made up for him - he only took the picture to show his mates at school that he'd really seen his hero on his holiday. But Clarkson's reaction was out of order. He utterly humiliated and scared my son."
Chris complained to the BBC, which broadcasts Top Gear, about the matter. However, a spokesman told the family: "Mr Clarkson was on a private holiday."
"I was disgusted by the BBC's response," Chris complained. "Who the hell does Clarkson think he is?"
