Celebrities Who Have Had Near-Death Experiences

Having a brush with death is always pretty exciting. It gets the adrenaline going, the blood pumping, and it makes you feel truly alive. Very few people have a close encounter with their untimely demise and live to tell the tale, but there are at least a few stories that pop up each year of people who miraculously survive grave injuries or threatening situations.

And since we don’t care about normal people, here are some celebrities that have had near death experiences and lived to tell the tale.

Zac Efron

Zac went out for a bike ride with Hugh Jackman in London during the morning traffic rush, and apparently, Zac isn’t a morning person. He got in an accident where he got caught by a double-decker bus and went under the front tire.

George Clooney

You can imagine crashing into a car while riding a motorcycle at 70 miles per hour isn’t a pleasant experience, and George can vouch for that. Despite his helmet ending up getting split in half from the crash, George survived and lived to tell the tale.

Joaquin Phoenix

We’ve all probably heard this story by now. Joaquin had a brake failure while driving and flipped over his car, crashing into another one. By some miracle, he came out of the accident pretty much unscathed.
