The chances of getting hit by a car while you’re inside a restaurant are incredibly low, but never zero, because it actually happened just now. Food influencer NinaUnrated and YouTuber Patrick Blackwood can attest to this; the two now have firsthand experience of getting hit by a car inside a restaurant. It was an SUV nonetheless, and it crashed into them while they were merely filming a food review in Houston, Texas:
The incident happened on August 18 in Cuvee Culinary Creations in Houston, Texas. NinaUnrated and Patrick Blackwood were filming one of their food review episodes for their collaborative eating show. Both were sitting by the window, but Blackwood was closer to the glass. As you can see in the video, just as the two influencers were taking their first bite, a car smashed through the window pane out of nowhere, knocking over the table and pushing Blackwood from the impact. Both were left stunned, which is understandable.
Thankfully, neither influencer was severely injured, though Nina suffered some glass cuts on her face and all over their body. NinaUnrated has since posted an update on her condition, where she appears to be resting in a nearby hospital
Because of the rather wild and unpredictable nature of the incident, it was more than a shock to NinaUnrated, and more of a wake-up call as both she and Blackwood were a few feet away from something that could’ve been more fatal.
“This experience showed me who truly matters; lifeโs too short for grudges or anger. Let go, forgive, live in the now, and cherish those around you this couldโve been our last meal,” said NinaUnrated in a reflection
Meanwhile, Patrick Blackwood suffered some facial cuts as well, but managed to avoid a major injury even though he took the brunt of the damage. It’s not clear who the driver is or what caused the incident.
No Shortage of Thoughts and Prayers from Their Fans
While NinaUnrated’s quick update regarding the incident has given her fans some semblance of relief. Many people online were still in disbelief about the video, with many even calling it AI-generated or perhaps even staged. However, based on NinaUnrated’s allegations and updates, it’s as real as it gets. Some people thus found a new phobia when eating in restaurants.
“This is why I never sit by a window,” explains one X user
“Damn on the first bite too ๐ญ Iโm so glad theyโre okay! That had to have been super scary and traumatizing! I pray the driver is okay too ๐๐พ,” prays NinaUnrated’s fan
“Just saw that video and OmG a miracle โค๏ธ๐ข ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ”
Of course, since everything was caught on camera, others were suggesting that NinaUnrated and Parick Blackwood now get themselves good legal assistance, since technically what they experienced was life-threatening. “You guys better hire a really nice attorney. That case is worth a lot,” suggests one of NinaUnrated’s fans.
