Two years after a snowplow accident nearly claimed his life, actor Jeremy Renner has expressed heartfelt gratitude for the medical team and community that aided his recovery. On the second anniversary of the incident, Renner shared a poignant Instagram post featuring a photo of himself in a hospital bed surrounded by medical professionals.

He expressed gratitude for his renewed strength and ability to take his "next breath."

Bodycam footage from the accident revealed the severity of the situation, with a paramedic describing it as unlike anything they had ever seen. Renner himself recounted the challenging recovery process in an interview with Men's Health, detailing the difficulties of everyday tasks and the use of medical equipment.

Since the accident, Renner has kept his fans updated on his progress through social media, sharing insights into his journey toward regaining his health and mobility.
