Jeremy Renner on Snowplow Accident, Getting Kicked Out of the ICU & Get Well “Cameo” from Paul Rudd

Jeremy talks about breaking over thirty bones and almost dying when he was run over by a snowplow on New Year’s Day, being on the ground for 45 minutes before an ambulance could get to him, getting kicked out of the first ICU he was in, his mom reading a Stephen King book to him while he was in the hospital, all the people reaching out to him with well wishes, a funny get well video he got from Paul Rudd, his new show “Rennervations” on Disney+, buying large vehicles like fire trucks and finding a new use for them, visiting Six Flags Magic Mountain with his daughter, and the best thing to come from his accident.

Seeing him 4.5 months later look this good is absolutely insane. He is a true badass. His perspective and transparency is truly inspiring and refreshing.

[lilwil-nsuo]

What an incredible point of view. To be thinking about everyone else was thinking during such a horrific time. Yet he keeps his sense of humor. What a generous human being.

[Theatress]

It’s been barely over 4 months and he has healed so wonderfully. I’m so happy to see he is doing well.

[jamieheslop]

His answer to the "toughest Avenger" statement being "Scarlett" is exactly what made those first 3 phases of the MCU damn near perfect, it felt like a family, it is sorely missed.

[DavidStella]

Jeremy Renner is living one of the most remarkable comeback stories of all time! What an inspiration.

[brentjauch]

I was there in the audience that day... And I was absolutely STUNNED at how well he is able to move around. Such a tough man. And a good hearted person

[faithvanhope]

His empathy is off the charts. This man must be protected at all costs.

[knull]

The fact that he said he would do it again for his nephew even after all his sufferings shows he is the true hero❣️

[deborahcarey]

I already loved this guy before his accident, but now I'm in complete awe of his strength, determination, perspective, and love of life.

[zachnotzack]

The fact that this man is able to get up and walk around even if it’s with a cane after an accident that severe, it’s a blessing and I’m glad Jeremy’s still here smiling and joking and enjoying everything still. 🙏🏽

[victorzarenin]

I was not expecting this. Renner is shockingly kind and sincere. It's something one forgets these days.

[jjsmakeupobsession]

That his first thought was for his nephew after his accident, makes him an amazing human being. So glad he is healing. His life outlook is inspiring.

[Kim-J]

Jeremy's recovery is very incredible. I've been ICU nurse for 30yrs at very busy unviserty hospital . His injuries he's describing are so critical by themselves ruptured liver, pneumothorax, crushed ribs obvious head/face/airway injury to have multiple injuries and survive is a miracle . 🙏❤️ so happy for him

[wirelesmike]

You can see it in his eyes, he's still in tremendous pain, but... Damn, what a trooper! It's amazing that he survived, and a miracle that no major organs or spinal injuries were sustained. You can tell his family is not only happy he's up and about, but still coping with the shock of such a close call. I hope they, Jerry included, can take a long break and do all of the healing that they need.
He seems like a really, really good guy. I'm glad he's still around and has such a good sense of humor about everything. He's a lucky man. May that luck continue to persist.🖖

[nintenmetro]

I don’t have enough words to express how I feel. I can’t even imagine how it’s been for him. Jeremy is fortunate that his neighbor called for help and kept him alive until the chopper arrived. The public definitely got his back. We wish you a steady recovery, Hawkeye. And I’m definitely gonna check out his new show Rennervations.

[digitalneko]

He wasn’t meant to die, he’s here to help others in need 🙏🏼one tough tough guy and a great a sense of humor.

[everyonehasthatname]

13:02 “I promise you I’m in a ton of pain. I promise you.” This hit my core, really felt for him there.
What an amazing, empathetic man. We’re incredibly lucky to have you still with us, hope you heal quickly Jeremy ❤

[rafaelcapellaft]

This guy is a real superhero. Healing factor (because he healed very quickly) and still helps people.
An incredible human being.

[abichau]

His recovery speed is off the chart! Absolute legend & RESPECT! Truly a superhero and a remarkable human being and unbreakable!

[Robman]

That big opening applaud he got from the audience made me tear up. So happy he’s well and loved 🫂
