For a man who almost died, his recovery is pretty amazing.

He looks much better that I was expecting at this stage of his recovery. It's just awesome to see him like this, after that accident.

It's debateable as to whether he will still be able to do action movies, but he sure seems like he's in good enough shape to continue acting.

I was thinking Professor X, too.
At least I won't be alone in Hell.

Wow. Incredible interview. We all knew that accident was bad but the accounts from the neighbors and extent of the injuries, the blood loss, skull, jaw fractures, eye squeezed out, leg injuries, half his chest crushed like a bug. Hearing him over the phone and waiting for help as his breathing got weaker. Man oh man. He knows he escaped Death. He looks great but the interview shows he is dealing with pain, physical and emotional. Really great interview.

Considering it's been a little over 3 months, he's made an incredibly recovery.

re: The Official Jeremy Renner Thread
The interview goes into detail. They even include animations. Well worth watching.
He was clearing snow from his slippery driveway, had just finished towing his nephews car. He turned the snowcat around but couldn't see his nephew. He opened the door and leaned out placing his foot on the treads of the snowcat. He didn't set the brake. The snowcat started rolling, he lost footing and fell out. He saw the snowcat rolling towards his nephew who would've been pinned between the car and snowcat, so tried to climb back into the rolling snowcat. The moving treads hurled him forward and the snowcat rolled over him.
From the initial reports it sounded like he just hopped out of the snowcat without setting the brake which wasn't the case. He knows it was a dumb careless thing to do leaning out like that. Also there was no benefit of snow pack cushioning the impact. He was on asphalt when it crushed him.
From all the metal they put into his body he's like Wolverine now.

Hearing him actually moaning was gruesome as hell. And, the depiction of what his neighbors saw was horrible.

^ That’s good to see. I can’t imagine how stir crazy I’d go after being laid up like that.
