Zach Bryan's Girlfriend Insists They Would've Been 'Decapitated' in 'Traumatizing' Car Crash If They Weren't Wearing Seat Belts
Zach Bryan and girlfriend Brianna LaPaglia believed they would have lost their lives if they weren't wearing seatbelts when they got into a "traumatizing" car crash earlier this week.
LaPaglia detailed the scary situation in a TikTok, revealing their car "flipped" over "a bunch of times."
"Everything shattered, and thank God we had our seatbelts on. There was a lot of blood, and we thought, like, we were like saying goodbye to each other," the internet star, 24, recalled. "After the ambulance came and he got all stitched up, we were like, ‘Oh my God, thank God. Didn’t hit an artery. It was just a huge gash."
"We were OK. We are happy and alive," she assured fans.
In a follow-up TikTok, LaPaglia talked about car safety, emphasizing how catastrophic the accident could have been if she wasn't fastened in her seat properly.
"I will be that annoying person. I will spend the rest of my life saying, 'Wear your seat belts,'" she stated. "I've always been a seat belt wearer just because my parents always made me. And, in high school, a neighborhood friend passed away and wasn't wearing a seat belt. But I was never the person to be like, 'Put your seat belt on. Wear your seat belt.' I was like, 'People are gonna do what they want to do.' Not anymore."
"I'm gonna be that helicopter stupid f------ annoying friend that's like, ‘Put your seat belt on or the car's not moving,’" added the social media star.
The podcaster concluded her words by shockingly sharing, "If we didn't have our seat belts on, we would be literally decapitated, broken necks or dead."
