Jeremy Renner is celebrating his progress. On Saturday, the “Rennervations” star shared a video documenting his progress walking on his own — following the snowplow accident that almost took his life in January.
“My PT made this for reference and to remember, you cannot walk unless you take one step at a time! #onefootinfrontoftheother,” the 52-year-old actor wrote next to the video shared on Instagram.
The video begins with Renner walking using the assistance of a walker as a person pushes a wheelchair is close behind him. As the clip — which is filmed from the waist down to show off his feet — continues, fans can see Renner go from walking with assistance, to moving with a balance support band, walking on the treadmill, and walking with a cane in his hand.
Showing off his final level of recovery, the video ends with Renner doing a playful runway strut towards the camera and the away from the frame — with no support at all.
On New Year’s Day, according to a redacted Washoe County Sheriff’s Office incident report, obtained by ET, Renner towed his nephew, Alex’s, vehicle after it got stuck in the snow. In the process, the snowplow began to move, and Renner tried to prevent his nephew from being hurt. The trouble arose after the snowcat, a PistenBully snow groomer, started “sliding sideways” and then “began to roll down the hill,” spurring Renner to jump out of the machine, he told officials. Jenner was crushed by the machine in the process.
As a result, Renner suffered massive injuries including multiple broken bones.
In the months following, Renner has documented his recovery. Last week, the actor shared an impressive video of him showing his progress as he ran at full speed and did half squats.
