After a tragic snowplow accident, 52-year-old actor Jeremy Renner ‘overwhelmed’ by goodness. Prior to the airing of a TV interview regarding his terrible snowplow accident earlier this year, actor Jeremy Renner claims he has been “overwhelmed with such goodness.” The Marvel actor, 52, said that several people’s “immediate actions” kept him alive and that “thank you will never be enough to express my gratitude.”
In an interview that will run on Thursday on US broadcaster Diane Sawyer, he relived the incident in which he was crushed by the six-ton machine. Renner said in a previous trailer that he was “awake through every moment” of the tragedy, which resulted in his breaking more than 30 bones. Before the program, he joked about giving them “free Snowcat rides” and promised viewers that he would reveal “the 411 on the 911 situation.”

In the hospital, Renner turned 52. He suffered “blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries” as a result of being hit by a snowplow while cleaning a driveway close to his Nevada home, according to his publicist, who previously told CNN. He had two operations and received intensive care unit treatment.
According to a 911 call log that CNN was able to obtain, Renner was “completely crushed under a large snowcat (vehicle),” had “extreme (difficulty) breathing,” and had his upper body and right half of his chest crushed.
As soon as Renner got out of the driver’s seat, the snowcat, an engine-powered vehicle used for clearing snow, began to move away, according to Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam.
