Eli shared a message and a video of her neck injury alongside it. The video began with a peek into her evening at the launch of the Glenelg BMW in Australia, where she wore a beautiful black dress by Tinsley Tube Dress and the mentioned scarf.

She expressed, “The dress was so tight around me,” followed by images of her neck injury, accompanied by, “I mean, it actually hurt.

Eli shared multiple images with her audience, demonstrating her neck injury. The images clearly depicted a large, reddish burn encircling her neck.

With warmth and affection, xx.

Another joked, “Fashion is a dangerous business. You poor love.”

The person said, “Only you, El, would end up in such a situation! Fortunately, it wasn’t any more severe. I hope your recovery is swift, and the pain isn’t unbearable.

Certainly, numerous individuals were deeply distressed by the incident, with one person expressing sympathy by saying, “Oh my goodness, you poor thing!!! That must have been absolutely terrifying!

Luckily, Eli confirmed she is on the mend.

She playfully implied that not even the ‘Paris filter’ could assist her, as reported by Sky News Australia. She then assured everyone that she was going for medical attention, but maintained a positive attitude, saying she was thriving and staying strong.

In February 2017, Jamie Lynn Spears’ young daughter Maddie Aldridge was operating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) close to their home in Louisiana. Unfortunately, she lost control and the ATV flipped into a pond, causing her to be submerged underwater for several minutes.

On a 2020 episode of the Maria Menounos Better Together podcast, Jamie Lynn recalled, “After we managed to pull her out of the water and I laid eyes on her, followed by first responders taking her from me, it seemed like we had lost our daughter.

Two days on, despite their uncertainty about the extent of the harm, Maddie regained consciousness and began talking again. A few weeks later, she resumed her usual daily activities as if nothing had happened.

Jamie Lynn expressed her gratitude, stating that she was fortunate to have been granted the gift of receiving her daughter again. She had previously lost her, but now they were reunited.

As a dedicated follower reporting from the sets of Bride Hard in 2025, I found myself witnessing an unexpected turn of events during Rebel Wilson and Anna Camp’s action comedy. On her final day of playing the secret agent role, Rebel had an unfortunate incident while filming a fight scene. In a twist of bad luck, a gun accidentally struck her face, causing her nose to split open. With a touch of drama, she had to abruptly leave set on what was supposed to be her last night of shooting. I couldn’t help but think, “How unlucky can one person get?” as I watched the resilient actress navigate through this setback.

Amidst her own spilled blood following the 2023 incident, she confessed to feeling extremely alarmed. “They needed an ambulance and even had to call a plastic surgeon to prevent permanent disfigurement,” she continued. “Fortunately, we were able to secure a plastic surgeon who performed all the necessary stitches. Now there’s no trace of what happened.

Tonight Show’s presenter Jimmy Fallon nearly suffered a finger injury when he accidentally tripped at home. In an attempt to break his fall, he grabbed onto the counter, but his ring became caught in the process, yanking his finger off instead.

He referred to it as “forced removal of a ring” and ended up spending ten days at the hospital, where doctors were trying their best to avoid amputation.

In the summer of 2025, seasoned athlete Zane Wach, who participates in long-distance running, swimming, and triathlons, almost succumbed to altitude illness during a hike with his father Ryan Wach on California’s Mount Whitney.

Ryan clarified to SFGATE that the boy began perceiving unusual visual phenomena, which he recognized as hallucinations. He described seeing objects such as snowmen and Kermit the Frog.

On several occasions along their descent on the trail, Ryan prevented his adolescent son from approaching the edge of the cliff. He expressed that the boy was in a strange mental condition, the cause of which remains unidentified. “I can only speculate,” the father mentioned, “perhaps it was due to fatigue, lack of sleep, possibly dehydration, and lingering effects from altitude sickness. However, he seemed to question the very reality around him.

On the third try, Ryan couldn’t reach Zane fast enough as his son tumbled from a height of about 120 feet off a cliff. After enduring a six-hour wait for an Inyo County Search & Rescue helicopter to arrive and airlift Zane to Southern Inyo Hospital in Lone Pine, he was treated and moved to a pediatric trauma center in Las Vegas. Placed into a medically induced coma, he eventually regained the ability to breathe independently.

Ryan mentioned that his teenager’s ordeal might turn out to be a survival story eventually, but he emphasized that they are currently in the midst of dealing with this difficult situation.

On the first day of 2023, Jeremy Renner, renowned for his role in Avengers, found himself grappling with a tricky situation as he attempted to tow a truck stuck in the snow at his Lake Tahoe residence using a snowplow. However, upon leaving the machine, an unfortunate incident occurred when he was accidentally pulled under while trying to prevent the plow from striking his nephew. As a result, Jeremy Renner sustained 38 fractured bones.

In his 2025 memoir titled “My Next Breath,” he penned about a fateful New Year’s Day moment when he found himself lying on the ice. His heart began to pace slowly, and it was then, unbeknownst to his daughter, sisters, friends, father, and mother that he grew weary. Thirty minutes later, as he labored to manually breathe for so long – equivalent to performing multiple push-ups each minute for half an hour… it was at this point that he took his last breath.

Struggling with fractured bones, excessive blood loss, and the danger of hypothermia, he penned down, “I believe I passed away-in fact, I’m certain of it,” in his writings. Upon the arrival of the paramedics, they observed that my heart rate had dropped to a critical 18 beats per minute, at which point you are practically deceased.

As a lifestyle advisor, I can relate to the heartrending ordeal faced by Emilie and Brady Kiser, my fellow parents. In May of 2025, our world turned upside down when our precious 3-year-old son, Trigg, unexpectedly slipped into our pool at home in Arizona. The pain of that moment still lingers.

On May 12th, the Chandler Police Department reported to USA Today that they responded to an emergency call at a home regarding a child who had been found unconscious in a backyard pool. Police and fire department personnel performed CPR at the scene before transporting the young child to Chandler Regional Hospital. Tragically, despite their best efforts, the toddler passed away six days later.

Emilie subsequently initiated a legal action directed towards Maricopa County public entities, seeking the court’s intervention to prevent the disclosure of details pertaining to Emilie’s death in public records. Meanwhile, the lawsuit mentioned that Emilie, despite her best efforts, continues to face numerous challenges in providing care for her two-month-old son, Theodore, who she is diligently supporting. Each day is a struggle for her.

A trip to Thailand intended as a relaxing family vacation for Dr. Cara Hodgson in December 2023, unfortunately became the most harrowing experience of her life when she was electrocuted by power lines. Upon losing consciousness and being hurried to the emergency room, the social media influencer spent the following days shuttling between hospitals, battling to recover and clinging to life as she recounted in a New Year’s Day Instagram post. “I am incredibly fortunate to be alive today.

In a remarkable turn of events, the orthodontist discovered yet another cause for joy amidst the discomfort. Sharing her insights, Cara expressed, “It’s a valuable lesson we often forget in the midst of daily struggles: life itself, with its simple pleasures like breathing, eating, speaking, and moving, is a truly extraordinary gift that merits our deep appreciation.

A regrettable incident took place when Brazilian tourist Juliana Marins slipped from a cliff while hiking on Mount Rinjani, an active volcano in Indonesia, during June 2025. Despite the challenges posed by poor weather, difficult terrain, and reduced visibility in the area, a group of 48 search and rescue personnel tirelessly worked for four days before eventually discovering Juliana’s body, as reported by the Brazilian government.

Today, the rescue team successfully made it to the location where Juliana Marins was, as reported in a post on her family’s Instagram account. Unfortunately, we must share the heartbreaking news that she did not survive. We are incredibly thankful for all the prayers, messages of love, and support that have been sent our way during this difficult time.

As a devoted fan, I’d rephrase it like this: Back in 2015, during an Easter brunch at Benihana (a Japanese restaurant), yours truly – Tori Spelling from Beverly Hills, 90210 – had an unfortunate mishap. While enjoying the Hibachi experience, I tripped and unintentionally burned my right arm on one of those hot grills. Following this incident, I needed skin grafts for treatment, and in due course, decided it was necessary to take legal action against the restaurant.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I find myself in an extraordinary situation – a testament to life’s unexpected twists and turns. Recently, during a challenging time, I underwent a procedure where they harvested skin from my leg to aid in its healing. Last year on our podcast, 9021OMG, co-hosted with the remarkable Jennie Garth, I shared this unique experience.

Now, imagine this: I’m casually conversing with someone, and instead of boasting about a new accessory, I say, ‘Hey, I’m wearing my thigh on my arm!’ It might sound unusual, but it’s the reality I live in. The skin damage was so severe that a thin layer of my very own thigh now covers my arm. Quite an unconventional fashion statement, don’t you think?

At the Rock&Cars festival in France, held in June 2024, comedian Tony Knight tragically lost his life when two large tree branches came crashing down. His sister-in-law, Joanne Allen, who is Hayley Wright’s sibling and longtime partner of Tony, conveyed the news on GoFundMe, expressing that he was just 54 years old, enjoying himself immensely at the time of the incident. She described him as a man in peak physical health, full of life and opportunities, with an infectious charm, great sense of humor, and deep passion for his craft.

Indeed, deeply cherished by his lifelong partner is how one might rephrase this passage. In her Instagram post, Haley wrote, “He was an exceptionally gifted individual, with numerous skills at his disposal.” “There truly wasn’t a task he couldn’t accomplish,” she continued. “He was a wonderful friend to countless individuals, a dedicated dog father…but above all, he was my universe; it will never be the same without him.

The 25th anniversary celebration for software company Vistex based in Chicago took a tragic turn in January 2024. During the event held in India, CEO Sanjay Shah and president Vishwanath Raju Datla were supposed to be lowered from an iron cage onto a dais as part of the festivities. However, two wires snapped, causing the cage to crash onto the concrete stage instead. This information was reported by The Times of India.

According to the newspaper report, Sanjay, aged 56, succumbed to his injuries in the hospital after the incident, whereas Vishwanath, who was 52 years old at the time, suffered a critical head injury and eventually passed away several months later.

In a joint 2022 Instagram video with UNICEF, I, Orlando Bloom, revealed a harrowing experience from my past. At age 19, during a careless moment with friends, I attempted to ascend to a rooftop terrace using a drainpipe on a three-story building. Unfortunately, the pipe gave way, causing me to plummet three floors through a window. Remarkably, despite fracturing several vertebrae in my back, I was miraculously able to survive the fall due to the fact that my spinal cord remained largely unscathed.

During my hospital stay, I was informed for four days straight that I might never walk again. This marked the start of a lengthy and difficult period in my life as I began to uncover and grasp the recurring patterns in my behavior that had led me to multiple accidents. Ultimately, breaking my back proved to be a near-death experience.

Upon discharge from the hospital, wearing a back brace and grappling with an abundance of physical and emotional distress, he confided to GQ in 2005 that he immediately began socializing – donning his back brace all along. After a couple of months, he acknowledged this was his life, and he had no intention of compromising it.

He mentioned that the experience has shaped every aspect of his life, stating, “You don’t truly understand until you nearly lose it. Previously, I used to drive motorbikes and cars as if every road was a race track – it was quite reckless, really. It wasn’t for the thrill; I simply enjoyed living dangerously. However, I’ve calmed down now.
