Joe Rogan has interesting friends who often grace his podcast. Well, one of his friends, who also happens to be a former UFC fighter, just got into a terrifying accident and somehow, made it out as safe as could be. That friend is none other than Brendan Shaub.

Schaub was an MMA fighter before he ever became a comedian. He recently took to Instagram where he uploaded dashcam footage of him just driving around in his truck. It’s just when he was driving around a corner that things took a drastic turn.

The truck flipped over completely and one could see the airbags immediately pop out to help Schaub remain safe. Thankfully, it did not look like the former fighter sustained many injuries, if any at all. In the video, Schaub can be seen quickly crawling out of the flipped-over car.
