Morgan Freeman seriously hurt in car accident.
“They had to use the jaws of life to extract him from the vehicle,” McFerrin said. “He was lucid, conscious. He was talking, joking with some of the rescue workers at one point.”

McFerrin said bystanders converged on the scene trying to get a glimpse of the actor.

When one person tried to snap a photo with a cell phone camera, Freeman joked, “no freebies, no freebies,” McFerrin said.

So when I read your excerpt I wondered why Bobby McFerrin was at the scene of the accident and was all "Don't tell him 'Don't Worry, Be Happy,' you bastard!"

But then I read the story. Oh, I hope he's okay.

No. Nononononooooo. This is not okay. Morgan Freeman has to be invincible.

Fingers crossed (and toes and eyes, too, just for good measure).

Uncool, universe, uncool.

And can I just say that Freeman has about 9,000 times the grace and class that I will ever have? Because if I was injured and some nitwit decided to take pictures of me with a cell phone, my first reaction would be to try and make them eat it, not joke around with them. Bless.

Oh jeez. At least it says he's in "serious" condition, not "critical," and he was conscious when they got him out. I have hope that he'll pull through. (First The Beef, then Freeman? What is this, Celeb Smash Car Trash month?)

Nooooo. I do not like this news. :(

Hopefully he's going to make it through okay.

Me too! XP

And I also kept thinking, "Gee, must be nice to have the kind of life where you can stand around all day and watch a famous actor get pulled out of a car." Poor guy. Didn't need an audience, he needed help. And if they weren't helping they could have, you know, left him alone. Yeesh.

Wow. I hope he's OK.

I'm beginning to get a bit sketched out by The Dark Knight. First Heath, then Christian Bale, now Morgan Freeman. It's like the movie's cursed.

You know, I heard one of the crew died during the filming. This is like the damn Poltergeist curse!
