Back in January, Marvel star Jeremy Renner pulled a Brian Harvey by managing to run himself over with his own snowplough, and it’s actually pretty amazing that he survived the incident and is already doing the chat show circuit and talking about it.
During an interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer, the host read out Renner’s long list of injuries after the 14,000 lbs snowplough ran over his body:
“Eight ribs broken in 14 places, right knee, right ankle broken, left leg tibia broken, the left ankle broken, right clavicle broken, right shoulder broken, face, eye socket, the jaw, the mandible broken, lung collapsed, pierced from the rib bone, your liver, which sounds terrifying.”
30+ broken bones all in all, but the most horrific-sounding injury of all? His eye popped so far out of its socket that he could literally see it with his other eye! I repeat! His eye popped so far out of its socket that he could literally see it with his other eye! Pure nightmare fuel…
“I believe I could see my eye with my other eye.”
For reference, here he is in the same machine that ran him over:

The neighbour’s 911 call that saved Renner’s life is extremely intense and worth a listen:
Man, I know Renner can afford the best doctors/surgeons/physios that money can buy, but it’s still incredible that only roughly 100 days have passed and the guy is back on his feet and doing press tours for his new show. There’s just no way any person should be expected to survive those injuries. He even made the red carpet the other night, albeit moving a bit funny:

Amazing. That’s millionaire healthcare, I suppose. Although I don’t doubt he’s still in a lot of pain as he carries on his Hollywood superstar duties. The drugs must be GOOD! And at least he’s got both eyes working again. Go Jeremy Go!
Amazingly, there were people on social media celebrating Renner’s injuries because of some allegations made by his ex-wife years back. The internet really is something…
