Accidents happen and celebrities are not immune to bad luck while on the road. In fact, some stars have been in serious car crashes and lived to tell about it.

Golf star Tiger Woods famously survived a scary car crash in February 2021. After his SUV flipped down an embankment in Los Angeles, Tiger was left with traumatic injuries to his right leg, open fractures to both his tibia and fibula, a bruised rib cage, and lacerations to his lower front jaw. He was reportedly speeding as fast as 87 mph at the time.

However, Tiger ended up returning to the links for the 2022 Masters in Augustus, Georgia. Before the Masters, his only appearance in competitive golf since the crash was with son Charlie during the PNC Championship in Orlando in 2021. At the time, Tiger said he wouldn’t be able to play a full tour schedule after the accident. “I can play certain events here and there, but on a full-time level, no, that will never happen again.”

Rachel Bilson, 40, was hanging with the wrong crowd during her teenage days and it led to a bad car accident. She told Pop Sugar in 2006, “I had a few years from the age of 14 till about 16 when I was hanging out with people I probably shouldn’t have been hanging out with, pretending to drink beer and acting cool. They were older than me, my brother’s friends, so I can blame him. Then one day, we all got into a car accident. It was a head-on collision and everyone ended up in hospital. One guy was paralysed and I was unconscious for a day or two. The accident changed me. It made me go in a different direction to the self-destructive route. It woke me up and stopped me going down that road.” Talk about some serious growing pains!
