Jeremy Renner details horrifying injuries — 30 broken bones — in Diane Sawyer interview



Jeremy Renner is lucky to be alive after being crushed by a Snowcat on New Year’s Day, and now he's providing his recount of how it happened and detailing the brutal injuries he survived. The actor recently sat down with Diane Sawyer for an interview that airs tonight on ABC, and while he looks to be in surprisingly decent health following the accident, Renner is using a walker in the early part of the film.

Renner told Sawyer that he “just got upright yesterday,” 10 weeks since he was run over by his 14,000-pound snow plow, which started to roll. Renner tried to get back in the driver's seat of the moving vehicle to keep it from hitting his nephew. The accident on his property in Nevada left him with 30 broken bones, including eight ribs, his right knee and ankle and right shoulder, along with a pierced liver and a collapsed lung.
