In the 911 call made by a neighbour after he was crushed by a 14,000-pound snowplough on New Year’s Day, Jeremy Renner can be heard sobbing out in pain.
When his neighbour discovered the Marvel star had been ‘crushed’ by his snowcat while attempting to help a family member pull their car out of heavy snow, he dialled 911.
The 52-year-old was eventually taken to a hospital from his Lake Tahoe estate, but sources say he ‘nearly died’ and will need ‘two years’ to recuperate.
In the tape, acquired by TMZ, the neighbour, whose name has not been released, tells the emergency services to come ‘immediately’ because the Hurtlocker actor is moaning in pain.
In what was an understandably frantic call, the unidentified neighbour repeatedly ordered Jeremy to stay ‘still’ while chatting to the operator, who asked for his address.
‘I told you!’ the neighbour is heard yelling, exasperated, to which the 911 respondent replied by asking him for his phone number in case they got disconnected.

‘Someone’s been run over by a snowcat, hurry’ the neighbour said.
The operator repeated the question, and the neighbour began to respond but was cut off by the operator, who said: ‘Ok, tell me exactly what happened?’
‘I don’t know,’ he said. ‘Someone is in front of my house and he got run over by a snowcat. He’s been crushed.’
‘Phone paramedics, ambulance,’ he continued, before the operator reassured him ‘everyone is on their way right now.’
Jeremy’s horrifying groans can be heard during a brief lull in the conversation before the frightened neighbour says, ‘Listen to me, you might want to get a lifeline out here right away.’


Sensing the Hollywood star’s deteriorating health, the female operator asked a neighbour to transmit Jeremy’s injuries, to which he replied that he had ‘ribs difficulties’ and was ‘crushed up on his right side’.
The neighbour, a little calmer by this stage, revealed how the injuries covered his right chest, upper torso and his ribs, before he noticed he also had a ‘head wound’.
Responding to the man’s request for an estimated time of arrival, the operator said: ‘It’s hard to give an ETA just because of the snow on the mountain, I don’t know how quick they’re able to go.’
‘His breaths are getting shorter, so please,’ said the neighbour, just before Jeremy almost fell into unconsciousness.
‘He’s drifting off,’ said the neighbour. ‘Stay awake.’

Due to the severity of his injuries, the actor was still recovering at Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno, Nevada, some weeks after the incident.
While there, the Bourne Legacy star uploaded a snapshot of his snow-covered home and wrote it, ‘Missing my happy place…’.
The actor has had two surgeries, one to insert metal pins in his legs and another on his chest.
The actor is lucky to have survived the ordeal, as a source recently told RadarOnline: ‘It’s much worse than anyone knows. Jeremy is very aware of the fact that he almost died out there.
‘The right side of Jeremy’s chest was crushed, and his upper torso had collapsed.
‘He also had a bad head wound that was bleeding and a leg injury.’
On January 17, Jeremy returned to his beloved house and tweeted that he will be able to watch the latest episode of his current Paramount+ series Mayor Of Kingstown from the comfort of his own home.
‘Outside my brain fog in recovery, I was very excited to watch episode 201 with my family at home 🙏❤️🙏,’ the Avengers star wrote.
