Jeremy Renner Details Experiencing Death During Snow Plow Accident "I Didn't Want to Come Back" — GeekTyrant
Marvel actor Jeremy Renner went through a death-defying accident and recovery two years ago that he is just now fully detailing in his recently-published memoir, 'My Next Breath.' In the book, he says he briefly experienced what he believes was death during the 2023 New Year's Day snow plow accident that nearly cost him his life. In a recent follow-up interview on Kelly Ripa's 'Let's Talk Off Camera' podcast, the Oscar nominee described this moment as 'a great relief.' 'It's a wonderful, wonderful relief to be removed from your body,' Renner said. 'It is the most exhilarating peace you could ever feel. You don't see anything but what's in your mind's eye. Like, you're the atoms of who you are, the DNA, your spirit. It's the highest adrenaline rush, but the peace that comes with it… it's magnificent. It's so magical.' 'I didn't want to come back,' Renner continued. 'I remember I was brought back and I was so pissed off. I came back, I'm like, 'Aww!' I came back and saw [my] eyeball and I'm like, 'Oh shit, I'm back.' Saw my legs. I'm like, 'Yeah, that's gonna hurt later.' I'm like, 'All right, let me continue to breathe.'' Renner wrote in his book that he briefly died about 30 minutes after his Sno-Cat, a large snow plow that weighs at least 14,330 pounds, ran him over as he was saving his nephew from injury. Renner ultimately regained consciousness and was hospitalized for blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries. His injuries included eight ribs broken in 14 places, a broken right knee and ankle, a broken left leg tibia and ankle, a broken right clavicle and shoulder and more. 'I could see my lifetime,' he writes in the book. 'I could see everything all at once. In death, there was no time, no time at all, yet it was also all time and forever.' Speaking to Ripa, Renner added that feeling like 'a man that didn't want to come back' has made him now 'really be able to be back here and live it on my terms as the captain of my own ship. And get on it or off it, I don't give a fuck. I'm going to live life on my own terms and for nobody else. [It's] very clear. The white noise is ripped away.' After spending nearly a year in recovery, Renner has since gone on to return to acting via his Paramount+ original drama series Mayor of Kingstown . He also filmed a role in Rian Johnson's next 'Knives Out' movie, aptly called Wake Up Dead Man , which is coming to theaters and Netflix this fall. via: Variety

Jeremy Renner describes the ‘exhilarating peace' he felt in his near-death experience
Jeremy Renner almost died on New Year's Day 2023 after being crushed by a snow plow near his Nevada home. He wasn't too happy when he was revived. During a recently posted appearance on SiriusXM's 'Let's Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa' podcast, Renner talked about the incident that landed him in the hospital in critical condition and needing multiple surgeries. Renner told Ripa, 'It's a great relief is all I can say. It's a wonderful relief to be removed from your body.' 'It is the most exhilarating peace you could ever feel. You don't see anything but what's in your mind's eye. You're the atoms of who you are. The DNA,' he said. 'Your spirit is… it's the highest adrenaline rush. But the peace that comes with it, it's magnificent. It's so magical. And I didn't want to come back. I remember, and I was brought back and I was so pissed off.' The 'Avengers' star said he 'was gone for, I think probably for, it doesn't matter if it's five minutes or two minutes or 10, but I came back and I saw the eyeball again.' 'I'm like, oh, s**t.

Jeremy Renner makes astonishing claim about what happened when he 'died' after snowcat accident
Jeremy Renner dropped a bombshell revelation, admitting he was momentarily 'pissed' about being revived following his near-fatal snowplow accident—after getting a glimpse of what he described as the peaceful serenity of the afterlife. The Marvel star, 54, opened up about the harrowing incident, which took place on New Year's Day 2023 when he was run over by a 14,000-pound snowcat outside his Lake Tahoe home while heroically trying to save his nephew. In his recently published memoir My Next Breath, Renner describes the 'electric serenity' he felt during the brief moments he was clinically dead. The experience, he writes, left him unafraid of death and filled with an overwhelming sense of peace. Now, in a recent appearance on Kelly Ripa 's Let's Talk Off Camera podcast, Renner candidly admitted that his first reaction to being brought back to life was disappointment. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'It's a great relief is all I can say,' Renner said of the feeling that came with his near-death experience. 'It's a wonderful, wonderful relief to be removed from your body. It is the most exhilarating peace you could ever feel. It's the highest adrenaline rush, but the peace that comes with it, it's magnificent. It's so magical.' That sense of peace, he revealed, was so powerful that returning to life felt like a letdown. 'And I didn't want to come back,' he said. 'I remember, and I was brought back and I was so pissed off. I came back, I'm like, "Aww!"' Renner admitted he was only 'gone' for a few minutes after his New Year's Day 2023 snowcat accident—but the glimpse of the afterlife was enough to change his entire outlook on life. He said time didn't exist in that space, describing the afterlife as a place of pure knowing, free from human limitations like language or linear thought. 'That's a human experience,' he told Kelly. 'Time is a human construct… This is so remedial—language, all these things. It's all knowing, all experiencing, all at the same time, all at once.' Renner now sees the accident as a wake-up call that cleared the noise and helped him identify what truly matters. 'It makes me—a man that didn't want to come back—really be able to be back here and live it on my terms as the captain of my own ship,' he said. 'And get on it or off it, I don't give a f---.' The brush with death also forced him to reevaluate where he places value. 'I gave so much value to things that have zero value,' he said. 'So I invest into no stocks or bonds. I invest not into crypto or Bitcoin. I invest into love and my shared relationships that I experience love with. 'Cause that is the only thing that you take with you.' The podcast comes after Renner opened up about the 'tiny but monumental' mistake he made that caused the horror snowplow accident which almost killed him in his new memoir. 'I didn't engage the parking brake or disengage the steel tracks,' Renner wrote. 'In that moment — an innocent, critical, life-changing moment — that tiny but monumental slip of the mind would change the course of my life for ever.' Renner was in the driver's cab of his huge 14,000-pound snowcat when it occurred to him that his nephew was in harm's way. He jumped out in an effort to save his life. 'My feet lost their grip on the moving tracks, and I never made it to the cab. I lurched violently forward, out of control,' he wrote. 'In that split second I was catapulted off the spinning metal tracks, arms flailing. I arced over the front of the tracks, propelled forward, down on to the hard-packed ice, where my head hit the ground hard and instantly gashed open. 'There came terrible crunching sounds as 14,000lb of galvanised steel machinery slowly, inexorably, monotonously, ground over my body. It was a horrifying soundtrack.' Renner suffered 38 broken bones in the ordeal, as well as a collapsed lung and his liver was pierced by one of his broken ribs. His nephew was able to render aid until emergency responders arrived to the scene. Renner was airlifted to hospital, where he was kept for more than two weeks and underwent multiple surgeries. Despite all odds, Renner has returned to work on set, recently filming Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery - the third instalment of the Knives Out series.

Robert Downey Jr. bulks up for Doctor Doom for Avengers Doomsday, gives a shout-out to co-star Hawkeye aka Jeremy Renner
The entire fan base of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was drenched in sorrow and disappointment when Robert Downey Jr's character Iron Man died in Avengers: Endgame. Robert's first stint as Tony Stark came in 2008, and it opened the doors for the MCU and all other characters that followed. The charismatic and narcissistic Tony Stark quickly began the main attraction in a decked-out roster of superheroes, and his death shook even the fans of Marvel Comics, who probably knew that it was a very big possibility. Because of the love and attention Robert had received as the Iron Man, everyone was beyond excited to see him return to the MCU as Dr Doom. The actor recently took to his Instagram to update his fans about his preparation for playing one of the strongest characters in comic history. A post shared by Robert Downey Jr. (@robertdowneyjr) In the picture posted by Robert, you can see him in a dry-fit training suit, as he is flexing his left bicep while using the other hand to hold up his co-star Jeremy Renner's new memoir, My Next Breath. The caption read, 'Reading Renner's book and feeling stronger already…what a journey to wisdom … very instructive…a must read!' Renner decided to pen his memoir after he nearly died last year while trying to save his nephew. Renner who apparently wasn't aware of Robert's return, played Hawkeye in the Avengers, a SHIELD agent who was a core member of the superhero group, and he and Tony had a fun relationship with each other, filled with banter and Lord of the Rings references. ALSO READ: Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning early reviews: Critics hail Tom Cruise-starrer as the 'franchise's greatest film' with an 'all-timer plane stunt' Doctor Doom is a character that has been attempted by movie studios before as well, but actor Julian McMahon's portrayal of Latveria's leader in the 2005 Fantastic Four wasn't met with a lot of appreciation. Even though the bar isn't too high for the character itself, the same cannot be said about the movie. Marvel has been struggling to imitate the success of its Phase 4 films, even since Endgame hit the theatres. Apart from a few web series and films like Thunderbolts*, the studio has been having a hard time living up to standards it set with its films from the past. All eyes will be on the star-studded cast when Avengers: Doomsday hits the theatres in 2026, and especially on Robert's return to the big screen as a Marvel character.
