Kevin Hart is wheelchair-bound after he tried to race a former NFL star in a 40-yard dash and his lower body clocked out on him.
The 44-year-old comedian and actor took to social media to share the series of unfortunate events with his 178 million followers.
In the video, Kevin said, “I’m in a wheelchair. Why? Well, because I tried to jump out there and do some young stuff.”
The “True Story” star went on to share that he got into a debate with former New England Patriots running back Stevan Ridley about who was faster.
Those that know me know that I’m pretty fast. Stevan said, ‘Kev, ain’t no way you’re going to beat me.’ I said, ‘Steven you can bet it!’ He said, ‘Bet!’ I said, ‘Bet!’
Kevin Hart detailed the tragic events that came next.
We get out there and we go run the 40-yard-dash.
