The TikTok Influencer "Can't Walk"
As the Daily Mail reports, the TikTok user, who posts car-based content under @FunBucketKustoms, recently updated followers on his health. The 27-year-old spent two weeks in the hospital after an accident on Oct. 10.
The Hawthorne, Florida, native told his more than 600,000 followers that another driver crossed into his lane and struck him head-on. The user suffered multiple fractures to his left leg and pelvis.
"I am totaled, and also the moped is totaled," the content creator said while in a wheelchair. "We're both messed up."
He then added, "I can't walk, I can't stand, and I can't run away from you because my legs don't work no more... I don't know how I am supposed to work."
The content creator promised users that he would share his recovery journey as he hopes to walk again.
FunBucketKustoms Said He Wasn't "Alive" for a Few Minutes
Elsewhere in the post, the TikTok user, who doesn't share his legal name on his profile, described what happened after the collision.
"My left leg was completely destroyed. It was broken in like 15 places, and my pelvis was all broken in like 15 places... I'm pretty much screwed at this point," he said.
He then added, "To recap, I've lost all movement in both of my legs. I can't move any of my pelvis, and I pee in a bag. I've got stitches everywhere. I'm just like Frankenstein now."
He also shared that he was "not alive for a couple minutes."
"I'm lucky to be alive right now," he said. "And I thank God that I am alive. God gave me a second chance at life."
But the TikTok creator says he was released from the hospital sooner than he expected. The reason? He says he doesn't have health insurance, but has set up a GoFundMe to help with medical expenses.
The internet personality also did not share any other details about the accident or the other driver.
He then ended his video with this: "This is just going to be day-to-day of me trying to get out of this damn wheelchair and become FunBucket again."
