Video: Derrick Lewis and son ‘OK’ after front yard quad bike scare
Derrick Lewis and his children are physically unharmed after a scary moment on the driveway, the UFC heavyweight says.
On Wednesday, Lewis (24-7 MMA, 15-5 UFC) posted a video on his Instagram page that, at first glance, looked like one of the famous memes that’s helped him gain 1.8 million followers on the platform. It was soon apparent, though, that this time Lewis was one of the people in the video.
Lewis posted surveillance footage from outside his house in Houston where he was sitting on a quad bike in the driveway with his two sons standing by. Lewis picked up one of his children to sit in front of him, and as he sits down, the gas grip is turned. The pair were instantly thrusted forward, narrowly missing the edge of the house and nearby pickup truck and instead destroying a tree and the lawn.
Watch the video below (via Instagram):
Lewis did not reveal any additional details about the incident. It’s unknown when it took place, but his video caption indicates everyone involved is unharmed.
“The Black Beast” is scheduled to fight Curtis Blaydes (14-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC) in the main event of the UFC’s Nov. 28 fight card. A location has yet to be announced.
