TikTok star Caleb Coffee hospitalized after fall off 80-foot Hawaii cliff, family says
“Sixty to 80 feet is … I can’t even fathom that. I don’t even remember. I just woke up and I thought I was going to die," the 18-year-old social media personality said on Tik Tok Thursday.
Teenage Tik Tok star Caleb Coffee has been hospitalized after surviving a 60 to 80 foot fall from a Hawaii cliff onto lava rock, he and his family said on social media.
The 18-year-old social media star was in the ICU after the terrifying fall, his father, Jason Coffee, who is also a social media influencer and YouTuber, said on Instagram Thursday.
“Quick update on Caleb: He is stable, conscious, talking and in good spirits," he said. He noted that doctors initially believed Caleb may have had a small break in his neck.
"He has a broken femur (surgery placed a rod through it), 2 plates & 10 screws in his right elbow, a fractured left wrist, stitches in forehead and lip,” the father wrote in an Instagram story. “It looks like it’s going to be a long road to recovery but Caleb is strong and we know he’s going to get through this!”
Later on Thursday, the father shared a video of Caleb speaking from his hospital bed, with stitches visible on his forehead and mouth, sharing news that he learned his neck is intact.
"So it's day 2 in the wake of tumbling off a precipice, 80 foot bluff," Caleb said. "For the beyond two days every one of the specialists felt that my spine or neck was broken and I just escaped another X-ray and it ends up, some way or another, wonderfully that it's not broken, just bothering. What's more, I for one might not make up a clarification for that at any point other than thank you, Jesus."
Caleb, who has north of 1 million supporters on Instagram and 11 million on Tik Tok, likewise shared a report on his Tik Tok account, uncovering this wasn't his most memorable brush with death.
"At the point when I was more youthful I had extreme seizures, excellent mal seizures, and I nearly kicked the bucket and yesterday I nearly passed on too," he said, becoming profound.
"Sixty to 80 feet is … I couldn't understand that. I don't for a moment even recall. I just awakened and I assumed I planned to kick the bucket. And afterward I didn't kick the bucket, so thank you God," he added.
His family has begun a pledge drive that has raised more than $16,000 towards its $100,000 objective.
Caleb, who posts content of his experiences outside, and minutes with his family, moved to Hawaii in May, as per an Instagram post.
