Erik Estrada Accident

During the last season, he was filming a scene where he and his partner jump on the motorcycles, and a car is backing down the alley. The cops chase the car.

It was Friday, and they filmed the scene, and Estrada was in his dressing room when they told him there was a hair in the lens, and they had to film again. But the stunt guys had already gone home.

“They put this young driver in the car,” he said. “The guy stops 25 feet too soon … My motorcycle hits the front fender, I go through the windshield, land on the hood and then the bike flips on my back. Boom, a thousand pounds, crushed.”

A helicopter took Estrada to UCLA, after he fractured ribs, punctured both lungs, cracked his jaw, and broke his wrist. “They gave me five days in intensive care and said I had a 50/50 chance of living,” he said. Estrada got out of the hospital and the world is better for it! “I got back on the bike and here I am rolling now,” he said.
