Did You Know George Clooney Had a Near-Death-Accident Last Summer?

The once most desired bachelor, George Clooney, has revealed his close-to-death-experience from last summer. Until now, many had no idea that the handsome star crashed into a car while riding his motorcycle in Sardinia, Italy in July 2018. Clooney opened up and revealed what seems to be the most dangerous, life-threatening accident he had ever had.

As George described it, he was pretty sure that he wasn’t going to make it out alive. He thought he would die from his injuries. Clooney was riding his bike in Italy, as he usually did, and when he was speeding about seventy miles per hour, he collided with a car that was coming right in front of him.

It was bad and I was waiting for the switch to turn off because I broke his windshield with my head. I thought, ‘Okay, well, that’s my neck.’” Clooney told THR‘s First Look.

As a result of the accident, his helmet was split and he lost his shoes. His riding partner, producer Grant Heslov, who was there when the accident happened. After this terrifying experience, the two decided to give up their passion for bikes.

The collision was alleged to have been caused by the car driver who disregarded George’s side of the road. Police on the island of Sardinia never found the car driver but Clooney was hospitalized for two whole weeks. He needed constant monitoring on his head injuries, and doctors had to wait on him to recover before letting the actor go home.

Grant Heslov revealed that when he was in the ambulance headed towards the hospital, he didn’t think George was going to survive. The producer says he took his friend’s hand and made a pact. If George survived the accident, he would stop riding bikes forever.

You’ll be happy to know that George is completely out of danger now.
