    I hope he makes it, too. I had no idea he was 71, though!

    And I find it interesting that there's NO information about the condition of the passenger!

    Good energy sent his way. I hope he pulls through.
    He's not only a great, one of a kind actor,
    but a wonderful human being as well.

    I'll say a prayer for him and his family. He is a legend of an actor and for good reason.

    You guys had me worried.

    Sounds like he's going to make it.

    I don't see anything that would indicate he's in danger of losing his life...

    I don't see anything that would indicate he's in danger of losing his life...

    So the term, "serious condition" doesn't indicate life threatening? Especially since the guy is 71 years old and was involved in a car accident that flipped over several times. At his age, "serious condition" can quickly escalate to to "critical condition" in a heartbeat (literally). The question at this point is whether his condition is stable or unstable.

    Not really. Critical condition usually indicates life threatening. Serious, that's more like broken bones etc.

    K, I am a Maxima fan, but what in the world is Morgan Freeman doing driving a 97 Maxima?

    Joking, only because it sounds like he will make a full recovery! ;)

    BINGO EB!!!!! When you get to be that age anything can & will go wrong when you are injured. Heretofore unknown ailments will suddenly make themselves known that can put them in jeopordy real fast.

    Here is hoping he makes a full recovery.
