Dapper Laughs, real name Dan O'Reilly, took to Instagram to reveal his horror crash.
Revealing his ordeal in the video, the comedian - who was on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 - told fans: "I did not expect to end up here, A&E.
"F***ing Portugal. I've hurt my back, I can't speak because of the f***ing pain, mate. It hurt my back bad.
"I hit hard stand, twisted, left and right. I f***ing came off the golf cart, didn't I?
"But I did catch it on camera, have a look.
"You can hear him say, I was at your ball over there, where he turns left while I'm hanging out on the right.
"And then, f**k me, you can hear the clicks in my back when I bend down to pick up my phone, like it's just f***ing snapped.
"They saw that as well, the clubhouse."
Dan, 40, then played a clip of the accident which saw his golf cut go hurtling over a mound before tilting on its side.
The comedian was then seen being thrown from the cart.

CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER STAR
Dan faced backlash in 2014 after made an inappropriate joke, which saw him "cancelled" .
Speaking to The Sun in 2022, he said: 'I lost everything and it was devastating but I accept I upset people.'I never set out to do that but my brand of humour was on the edge and sexist and I pushed it a bit too far at times.
'I was genuinely distressed with the hurt it caused and should have been more intelligent about it. I had an ITV2 show – Dapper Laughs – and was selling out venues after building up my following on social media. I should have been more aware.'
However, four years later he took a chance to rebuild his public profile by appearing on Celebrity Big Brother.
Reflecting on his time in the house, he told us: 'It went well and people saw the real me.
'They could see I wasn't a monster. I came out of the show with a bit of money and invested it in businesses that have done well."
Dan revealed this in turn helped turn his life around and get his career back on track.
"I've got a nightclub, various online shows including my own stand-up," he said at the time.
"I've got a film company with three films in production and a West End play coming up.
"I've got a supercar company and you could say they didn't manage to completely cancel me.'
