Kevin Hart has called himself 'the dumbest man alive' after revealing that he is now using a wheelchair.
We know that age is just a number, but sometimes that number can really humble you.
The comedian, 44, told his 178 million Instagram followers on Wednesday (August 23) that he is in a wheelchair after foolishly trying out 'some young stuff'.

"44 and sitting my ass down!!!!!" Hart captioned his video, before explaining what went down.
"I got to be the dumbest man alive!!!!!
"What the f**k am I doing???? I blew my s**t….I’m done. FML."
"I'm in a wheelchair. Why? Well, because I tried to jump out there and do some young stuff," he said while sitting down in a wheelchair, dressed in a fresh white Gucci x Adidas hoodie.
The Night School actor revealed how he suffered an accident following a bit of friendly competition with former NFL running back Stevan Ridley, 34.
"This debate was based off who's faster. Those that know me know, I'm pretty fast," Hart said.
"Stevan said, 'Kevin, ain't no way you're gonna beat me.' Stevan is an ex-NFL running back [who] played for the New England Patriots. Very good guy."
After attempting a 40-yard sprint, Hart blew 'all my s**t' and now is unable to walk, for the time being.
"To all my men and women out there that are 40 years old and above. It's not a game, respect that age," the father-of-four warned.
"Respect that age, or that age will make you respect it. I was just forced to respect it.
"This is just a public service announcement because I know people may see me out. And I don't want you to be alarmed, but I'm in a wheelchair."
While not revealing his exact injury, Hart panned down the camera and said: "I don't know what that is but I tore them, I tore those, too. I can't walk."
"Tell you what you just lost, son. You just lost every opportunity of me going to racing you anytime soon. It's over," he said.
"What are we competing for at this age? What am I doing? Why did I even race? Stupidest s**t ever, now I can't walk."
Following Hart's hilarious post, Ridley uploaded his own response to Instagram story.
"I SAW @TOMBRADY DO IT AT YOUR AGE SO I FIGURED YOU HAD THE JOICE TOO BIG BRO!" Ridley joked.
"MY BAD @KEVINHARTFOREAL! HEAL UP AND PEEKP MAKING US ALL LAUGH!"
Hart hopes to be back up and (not) running in about 'six to eight' weeks.
