Kevin Hart Suffers Injuries After Challenging NFL Player in 40-Yard Dash

Claire Martin Published August 24, 2023

Comedian Kevin Hart is nursing injuries after a bold attempt to prove himself against a former NFL athlete went awry. The incident unfolded when Hart, in his 40s, challenged former NFL running back Stevan Ridley, who is a decade younger, to a 40-yard dash. The challenge aimed to demonstrate that Hart could outrun the professional athlete, but it ended with Hart suffering injuries that have left him temporarily unable to walk.

In an Instagram video, Hart shared the aftermath of the challenge from a wheelchair on a patio. He candidly expressed his disbelief at his own decision, saying, “44 and sitting my ass down!!!!! I got to be the dumbest man alive!!!!! What the f— am I doing???? I blew my s—….I’m done.”

Kevin Hart thought he could beat former #Patriots RB Stevan Ridley in a 40-yard dash.

He couldn’t.

Not only did he lose the race, but Hart also suffered a torn lower abdomen, which has now left him in a wheelchair. 😬

Hart revealed that during the race, he tore his lower abdomen and adductor muscles, a group of hip and leg muscles that support leg movement and trunk stability. Reflecting on the experience, he humorously stated, “Tried to do some young man stuff and I was told to sit my ass down.”

The comedian went on to emphasize the importance of respecting one’s age, particularly for those above 40. He said, “To all my men and women out there 40 years old and above, it’s not a game. Respect that age. Or that age will make you respect it.”

Hart shared that he and Ridley had engaged in a friendly debate about their speed and even wagered on the outcome of the race. Despite his confidence in his own speed, Hart found himself unable to keep up with Ridley, resulting in the injuries. He humorously questioned the rationale behind competing at his age and admitted, “Got to be the stupidest man alive.”

Hart’s fellow celebrities weighed in with supportive and lighthearted comments. Dwayne Johnson assured Hart that he would recover and offered words of encouragement. Will Smith acknowledged the realities of aging, while others added their own humorous perspectives on the situation.

The incident serves as a reminder that age catches up with everyone, even those known for their athleticism and physical fitness. While Hart’s challenge may have ended with injuries, his candid response and the supportive reactions of his peers have turned it into a light-hearted lesson about respecting one’s age and limitations.
