The only thing that happened was a tiny scratch on my hand, nothing more.”Addressing rumours of reckless driving, he clarified, “I'm here to say that I wasn't drunk, I wasn't on drugs, I wasn't racing, I wasn't drag racing, nothing like that.”Social media users call it a miracleThe shocking video quickly went viral, drawing hundreds of reactions online.
