Overview
- Reynolds recounted in a GQ video that when he was about 18 in Vancouver he was run over by an intoxicated driver after leaving a bar.
- He said the collision left him hospitalized for roughly four weeks and that he “broke every bone” on his left side, describing severe, long‑term physical effects.
- The GQ segment, filmed with Rob McElhenney and published this week, brought renewed attention to Reynolds’s account rather than new independent facts.
- Reynolds previously spoke about the crash in a 2011 interview, and current coverage largely repeats his first‑person memories without new medical records or legal updates.
- Beyond the personal trauma, the story underscored how a single incident can shape long‑term health and career choices for a public figure and may prompt fresh public reflection on drunk driving risks.
