He was then immediately rushed to the Burn Centre and following this he started recovering. Although after this freak accident, the TV host while recently attending an interview via phone call revealed that he has yet again met with another accident and this time it was in a motorcycle.

Jay Leno while speaking to Las Vegas Review-Journal (LVRJ), stated, “So I turned down a side street and cut through a parking lot, and unbeknownst to me, some guy had a wire strung across the parking lot but with no flag hanging from it … So, you know, I didn’t see it until it was too late. It just clothesline me and, boom, knocked me off the bike.”

Leno stated that the accident occurred nine days earlier (possibly on January 17), while he was working on a vintage automobile. He was riding a 1940 Indian motorbike When he recognized the odor of leaking fuel. He added that he went down to check the line and when he moved back up to see the road in the parking lot a random wire lined out by somebody caught Jay and he fell of his bike. He stated, “The bike kept going, and you know how that works out.” Leno further revealed that, “I’ve got a broken collarbone. I’ve got two broken ribs. I’ve got two cracked kneecaps.” Jay during the interview stated that he is fine and is recovering and will be working in the coming weekend.

Back in November last year, Leno suffered the burns after a fire erupted in his Los Angeles car garage. One of the cars reportedly burst into flames and left Leno with serious burns on his face. His eyes did not suffer any injuries. Leno was rushed to Grossman Burn Centre for his injuries. Leno talked to Variety and said, “I got some serious burns from a gasoline fire. I am ok. Just need a week or two to get back on my feet.” Leno’s family also could not provide many details on the incident.
