Jeremy Renner’s Near-Fatal Snow Plow Accident
The Hawkeye star started this year with a serious snow plow accident. Close to his Nevada residence, Rener encountered a harrowing accident while attempting to prevent his giant snow-clearing tractor or a PistenBully from hitting his nephew. The heroic incident resulted in multiple severe injuries, fracturing eight ribs, an eye socket, a knee, and a shoulder.
The star was quickly rushed to the hospital and thus began his road to recovery. Since then, he has actively shared updates about his healing process on his social media pages, keeping his fans updated on the situation.
Several months have now passed since the incident, and the star is nearly back to his former self physically. However, despite the physical recovery progress, the mental recovery is a process that will take time. He spoke with CNN and revealed,
“I just feel very blessed and very lucky to be upright and walk around and to live life,–When you’re tested physically, emotionally, spiritually, in every way, and then to come through it, that’s something hard to explain.–Perseverance. Strength. It’s all a mental game. I put it in my back pocket now. I know how to deal with pain. It’s all mind. It’s all in the mind. If you can sift through the fog of it all, I am very blessed.”
Jeremy Renner is thus also deeply grateful for the overwhelming love and support he received from the people around him, along with the heartfelt wishes sent from across the globe.
