Tragedies can change people in deep and profound ways, which can sometimes be for the better and sometimes for the worse.
Last year, comedian and actor Kevin Hart was in a tragic car accident that he says has changed his life. In a new interview for The Joe Rogan Experience Kevin has opened up about the crash and his recovery.
Kevin revealed that after seven days in the hospital, he was using a walker and pretending that he was using his feet to move, when in reality he was using the strength of his upper body.
"I'm giving the perception that it's better than what it is, and I had the back brace on," he said.
"I lied in the hospital because I didn't want them to know that I was having pain, because I thought that they were gonna stop me from letting me continue to try my walks," Kevin added, explaining that with the amount of pain he was in, "every night was a horrible night."
"Like there was an option of me never seeing that home again. There was an option of me never walking on that driveway again. There was an option of me never seeing my wife and my kids again," Kevin said.
Kevin says that now he has "no bad days," and adds "it's not until you get close to that light that you truly respect, that I respect that there are no bad days. Miss me with any [expletive]. I'm smiling because I have no reason to be angry because I don't have to be here."
What an amazing outlook!
