Twitch streamer HMBL Zay was hit by a car in Indiana while walking across the country from Philadelphia to California.
The streamer (whose real name is Isaiah Thomas) was on day 34 of his 3,000 mile livestreamed journey when the crash happened along a highway.
Zay was walking with a vehicle trailing him as a safety barrier when another car rear-ended it, forcing it forward into him and sending him and his equipment in different directions.
As seen in the footage circulating online, woman was then heard shouting, “Bitch, did you not fucking see me?”
Zay briefly went out of frame before returning to pick up his camera and show the debris scattered across the road.
“Good thing I had a back brace on, that saved me,” he told responding officers before emergency crews transported him to a hospital.
He later shared an update from his hospital bed while wearing a neck brace, sharing he remained determined to recover and continue.
“Appreciate everybody that's checking on me. I'm good, they're just running some tests right now. We'll be back live-streaming real soon. We're gonna finish this race, man,” he said in the video. “We won't let the devil win. We're gonna make sure we finish this marathon that God put me on. God is the greatest. I'm alive, and that's all that matters."
He added, "From the video that happened, they trying to figure out how I'm still alive. Cops said, 'I'm just so happy I'm looking at you like this and I'm not looking at you dead!"
Zay has not said when he will resume the walk.
