Jeremy Renner Shares Fake Cameo He Got from Paul Rudd After Snowplow Injury
View StoryAccording to the Washoe County Sheriff's Department, on January 1, the "Hawkeye" star was airlifted to a nearby hospital after he was injured clearing snowfall following a severe storm at his home in the Mt. Rose Highway area. While exiting the snowplow, the actor discovered the emergency brake system hadn't been applied properly and began to slide towards his nephew who was in the line of direct impact. In an effort to save him, Renner attempted to step up on the track of the plow in order to stop or divert its path.
In his first on-camera interview with Diane Sawyer back in March, the "Mayor of Kingstown" actor revealed he not only remembered the pain of being run over, but was also "awake for every moment" of the ordeal.
Sawyer recited the extent of his injuries, including 30 broken bones, "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 rib bone [into] your liver -- which sounds terrifying," the journalist noted.
