For the first time, comedian and Philadelphia native Kevin Hart is talking about the car crash that seriously injured him.

He posted a video to his Instagram page late Tuesday documenting his weeks of recovery.

Kevin was in his Plymouth Barracuda with two other people when his car rolled into an embankment in Malibu Hills, California.

The driver and the other passenger had to be cut out of the vehicle, with one person suffering major back injuries like Kevin did, and the other with no serious injuries at all.

In the video, he showed news footage of the crash followed by images of his road to recovery.

“When god talks, you gotta listen. I swear life is funny because some of the craziest things that happen to you end up being the things that you needed most.”

“In this case, I honestly feel like God basically told me to sit down. When you're moving too fast and you're doing too much, sometimes you can't see the things you're meant to see. But after my accident, I see things differently. I see life from a whole new perspective,” Hart says.

The video shows Hart interacting with his friends and family.

“Don't take today for granted, because tomorrow's not promised,” Hart says. “I'm thankful for simply still being here.”

Doctors estimate his recovery will likely take at least a year.
