<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jeremy-renner" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jeremy Renner</a> opened up about his near-fatal snowplow accident during an interview that aired Thursday, saying that at one point, he told his family not to let him “live on tubes on a machine.”</p>
<p>The 52-year-old Marvel star <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POnIvy4eaII" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sat down</a> with ABC&#8217;s Diane Sawyer and detailed what he went through after his body was nearly crushed under a 14,300-pound snowcat, resulting in him breaking more than 30 bones, according to <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/jeremy-renner-diane-sawyer-interview-1235368885/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hollywood Reporter</a>.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Hawkeye&#8221; star said that he feared that his life was over after the accident and asked his family to keep his daughter from seeing him. He also told them he didn&#8217;t want to be kept alive on machines.</p>
<p>&#8220;Don’t let me live on tubes on a machine,&#8221; Renner said of a conversation with his family. &#8220;If my existence is going to be on drugs and painkillers, let me go now.&#8221;</p>

<p>At one point, Renner told Sawyer that he surely would&#8217;ve died if he had been alone, explaining that he lost &#8220;a lot of flesh and bone&#8221; in the accident.</p>
<p>&#8220;If I was there on my own, that would have been a horrible way to die, and surely I would have. Surely,&#8221; Renner said. &#8220;Surely, but I wasn&#8217;t alone. I was with my nephew, sweet Alex.&#8221;</p>
<p>He later explained that despite the accident, he refuses to let the &#8220;trauma&#8221; he experienced be defined as a &#8220;negative experience.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That is a moment I&#8217;m proud of because I wouldn&#8217;t let that happen to my nephew,&#8221; Renner said. &#8220;I shift the narrative of being victimized or making a mistake or anything else. I refused to be f***ing haunted by that memory that way.&#8221;</p>

<p>On January 1, &#8220;The Bourne Legacy&#8221; star was helping get his nephew&#8217;s truck out of the snow when the Kässbohrer PistenBully snowcat he was operating ran over him, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/01/10/jeremy-renners-sister-gives-update-after-snowplow-accident-hes-a-fighter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> noted.</p>
<p>&#8220;He was helping someone stranded in the snow,&#8221; Reno City Mayor Hillary Schieve told the <a href="https://www.rgj.com/story/news/2023/01/02/local-agencies-respond-and-care-flight-avengers-star-from-reno-home-jeremy-renner/69770953007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reno-Gazette Journal</a> at the time. &#8220;He is always helping others.&#8221;</p>
<p>Since that time, Renner has shared videos and posts on Instagram about some of his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jeremy-renner-gives-fans-update-two-months-after-snow-plow-accident" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recovery</a> and the physical therapy he’s been through following the accident.</p>
