Jeremy Renner is celebrating his birthday a little differently this year. The Marvel star turned 52-years-old on Saturday, January 7, in the ICU unit after being "crushed" in a terrifying snow plow accident that occurred on New Year's Day.

Renner took to social media to share a sweet birthday tribute from The Base Chicago youth organization, captioned the Instagram Story: "Thank you For the Birthday Love !!!"

This comes only days after Renner was involved in a brutal snowplow accident this past holiday weekend. The Avengers star had briefly stepped out of his Snowcat while helping a family member dig their car out of the snow when the vehicle started rolling towards him. He was unable to get out of the way in time and was left with full body injuries.
