Kevin Hart’s Sprint Challenge Goes Wrong

“44 and sitting my as* down!!!!! I got to be the dumbest man alive!!!!! What the f–k am I doing???? I blew my s–t….I’m done. FML. I’m in a wheelchair. Why? Well, because I tried to jump out there and do some young stuff.”
In an effort to prove that age is just a number, Hart challenged Ridley to a 40-foot dash. Apparently, things took a turn for the worse causing him multiple muscle injuries. He further said, “This debate was based off who’s faster. Those that know me know, I’m pretty fast.”
“Stevan said, ‘Kevin, ain’t no way you’re gonna beat me.’ Stevan is an ex-NFL running back [who] played for the New England Patriots. Very good guy,” Hart stated. “To all my men and women out there that are 40 years old and above. It’s not a game, respect that age,” Hollywood star added, further admitting that one needs to respect the age, or else suffer like him.
