Renowned comedian and actor, Kevin Hart, shared the profound impact of a life-altering accident he endured in September 2019. The accident led to his hospitalization and presented him with a challenging and demanding path toward recovering his health and overall well-being.
Kevin Hart opened up about the significant changes that have taken place in his life since the near-fatal car accident in September 2019. With a series of major surgeries addressing the spinal fractures from the crash, the 40-year-old comedian revealed on his SiriusXM radio show that the healing process has been a truly “humbling” experience.
The Accident Was Beyond Scary For Kevin Hart
During a podcast with Logan Paul, Kevin Hart shared that throughout his journey to recovery, he faced substantial obstacles. The physical limitations and emotional toll he experienced were deeply impactful. He vividly recounted how everyday tasks that were once taken for granted became overwhelming challenges.
Even simple actions like putting on a sock or lifting a bowl served as stark reminders of life’s fragility. This experience acted as a poignant wake-up call, instilling in him a newfound appreciation for the little things he had previously overlooked and taken for granted.
“Scary is an understatement. I was in the hospital for 14 days. Like the things that you don’t really think too much about, I’m talking, taking a sock on and off, or lifting up the bowl. Whenyou can’t do ’em anymore, it’s catastrophic, and you have no idea or the mindset of how fortunate you are to be able to do them. It’s a real f***ing shell shock,” he said.
Amidst the myriad challenges he faced, Kevin Hart demonstrated unwavering resilience and determination on his journey. Embracing a newfound appreciation for his body’s capabilities, he poured relentless effort into rebuilding his strength and mobility. Today, he stands in better shape than ever before, not just physically but also with profound gratitude for the precious gift of life.
How Did Kevin Hart Get Into An Accident
In the early hours of September 1, while traveling in his 1970 Plymouth Barracuda along with producer Jared S. Black and Black’s fiancée, Rebecca Broxterman, Hart experienced a life-altering accident. The vehicle veered off the Mulholland Highway in Malibu, leading to a rollover and landing in a ditch, causing serious injuries to all three occupants. Notably, a police report obtained by Us Weekly confirmed that Black, who was driving at the time, was not under the influence of alcohol during the crash.
Approximately a month after the accident, Dr. Karena Wu, a physical therapist, observed that Kevin Hart seemed to be in the “advanced stage” of his recovery. While not personally treating Hart, Dr. Wu shared exclusively with Us in October that she anticipates the comedian will require “18 months to two years” before achieving a full return to his previous state of health, where he can be considered “100 percent normal” again.
