In an effort to save his nephew from a snowcat heading straight for him, JEREMY RENNER leapt into action—ultimately missing the mark—and getting crushed by the snowcat in the process. MY NEXT BREATH details his 45 minute wait for medical attention as he’s in agonizing pain, looking at his popped-out left eyeball with his right, and resting in snow from the storm that blew in.

Defying the odds, Renner survived that first hour and all the ones to come with cutting-edge medical technology, a whole lot of determination, and the awe of the public. 

The audiobook includes the 911 call from a Good Samaritan neighbor who helped aid him in that first hour and a sweet letter written by his daughter.

This book was a truly touching story of what can be overcome. Renner tells it with a quiet humbleness, all perspectives geared toward the impact he had on his family, and the acknowledgment that he will live with this new reality everyday—for the rest of his life.
