Jeremy Renner believes he briefly 'died' after his horror snowplough accident
Actor Jeremy Renner has opened up on the aftermath of his snowplough accident.
Jeremy Renner believes he briefly "died" after his horror snowplough accident.
The 54-year-old actor was lucky to survive after being crushed by the vehicle in January 2023 when he jumped out of the cab to try and save his nephew from being mown down, and now he's candidly spoken about the aftermath as he waited for emergency responders to get to him.
In his new memoir 'My Next Breath', he wrote: "I know I died - in fact, I'm sure of it.
"What I felt was energy, a constantly connected, beautiful and fantastic energy.
"There was no time, place, or space, and nothing to see, except a kind of electric ... energy."
Jeremy was waiting around 45 on the ice, with his pulse sinking to 18 beats per minute.
He recalled: "As I lay on the ice, my heart rate slowed, and right there, on that New Year’s Day, unknown to my daughter, my sisters, my friends, my father, my mother, I just got tired.
“After about thirty minutes on the ice of breathing manually for so long, an effort akin to doing ten or twenty push-ups per minute for half an hour ... that’s when I died.”
