Jeremy Renner has shared an update on his recovery seven weeks after nearly being killed by a snowplow.
The Marvel actor posted a short clip of an “electrical simulation workout” to build muscle strength in his leg after the accident. He accompanied the video with the Beatles song Lady Madonna.
Renner, 52, spent two weeks in intensive care afterwards breaking more than 30 bones in a near-fatal accident with a snowplow new Year’s Day.
The Hollywood star was reportedly using his PistenBully snow blower helps move her nephew’s stuck car out of its driveway near Reno, Nevada.
But when the six-ton plow began sliding down a hill, Renner leapt out of his cab before being hauled under the vehicle.
He suffered injuries to his “torso, face, extremities and head,” according to the local Washoe County Sheriff’s Department.
Authorities said the vehicle may have experienced mechanical problems.
The Hawkeye actor shared an update on his condition last month after being allowed to recover at home.

“These 30+ broken bones will mend, grow stronger, just as the love and bond with family and friends deepens. Love and blessings to you all.”
