Roseanne Barr quiet life on her sprawling 30-acre Texas ranch turned dangerous. In an instant, a terrifying accident left the comedian trapped and desperate to escape. The 72-year-old actress and comedy icon opened up about the freak incident, which unfolded while she was out mowing her property.
The former sitcom star has fully embraced life away from Hollywood in the Texas Hill Country. Roseanne reveals she was riding her tractor earlier this week when she collided with a tree she hadn’t cleared properly. The impact knocked loose a heavy branch estimated to weigh nearly 100 pounds, according to Globe Magazine.
Roseanne Barr said the massive tree limb came crashing down directly on her head. It pinned her inside the tractor on her Texas Ranch. Alone and without help nearby, the situation could have ended far worse. Roseanne reveals she knew she had to act fast.
“I just said my mighty prayers that always work. Roseanne said, ‘Come on God … I just want to be able to harness all this strong Russian energy. I know I still have it in there. If you’re with me.”
Despite the pain and shock, Bar claims she relied on sheer willpower and determination to free herself. The actress worked desperately and managed to push the branch off herself after nearly an hour. Even at 72, the TV legend reveals she somehow managed to summon enough strength to flip the tree limb and escape the wreckage.
