“Welp, I ran out of talent,” he said.

About the accident, the racer elaborated:

“I had a pretty nasty get off, practicing Thursday morning. Landed off a jump, bars knifed, and took the bar to the gut while going over the bars. As I understand it, severed my small intestine from my colon. I’m fine and will recover from this.”

Despite the severe injury, Hart maintained his trademark humor and resilience. He told followers that he would be taking a few days to rest and focus on recovery, adding,

“Sorry to everyone I ghosted over the last couple days. There was a good reason for it.”

Why Did Carey Hart leave Fox’s Special Forces?

Carey Hart, had to exit Fox’s Special Forces earlier this year after suffering an injury caused by a slip on a muddy speed bump during one of the show’s challenges. In a report shared by Us Weekly, he explained the event in detail.

“It’s my own fault that that happened. We were running this brutal workout through the mud holes and into the splash pond and all these things. It was absolutely freezing outside. I got hurt because I wasn’t paying attention, in the prior exercises, we had to do two laps around the compound and back into the square. Well, in that certain situation, I think that was the second or third round — [and] I’m not a great runner."

Hart added:

"The DS said, ‘OK, go out, do one loop around and pull back in.’ I wasn’t paying attention. I went for the full two laps. Well, it was the second lap I actually tripped… So had I been paying attention, I would’ve advanced and not been in that situation.”

Post accident, Carey Hart told his costars he was exiting the show and made a lighthearted comment about how his wife, Pink, would likely find the situation amusing.

Hart explained that he contacted her via video call soon after the incident.

“I FaceTimed her that night. At the moment I got hurt, it was probably around midnight. So by the time I made it back to the hotel and got my phone out of the safe and all the things, it was probably 3 o’clock in the morning U.K. time,” he shared

Pink's reaction was a mix of concern and understanding, he recalled.

“She’d known the period of the time of the show and probably in the back of her mind, she knows anytime my phone’s going to ring before that last day, I’m going to be [hurt]. So her initial [reaction] — she was wide-eyed, kind of white as a ghost, asking, ‘Are you alright?’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, it’s just my old body.'”
