Porn star Adriana Chechik has spoken out after breaking her back in two places following a horrific freak accident at TwitchCon.
A foam pit was set up at the San Diego event, which was attended by other video game streamers, brands, fans and more.
Chechik, a porn star and Twitch streamer, suffered a devastating injury when she won a gladiator-style battle in the pit.
Video footage of the incident shows Chechik jump and do the splits in mid-air before hopping into the foam pit below.

"Two breaks in my back, metal rods in my back and a bruised ego this weekend," Chechik said on Twitter in the wake of the freak accident.

However, the sex worker and gamer revealed that the damage is far worse than originally thought.
"So surgery went well, 5 hrs 30 minutes," Chechik said on Twitter.
"More fusions than expected, bones completely crushed and nerve damage to my bladder, hopefully I’ll be able to pee again in the near future."
So surgery went well, 5 hrs 30 minutes! More fusions than expected, bones completely crushed & nerve damage to my bladder, hopefully I’ll be able to pee again in the near future. No more squirting probably… had some bleeding around the bone but overall doing good!

And then she shared the worst news one could possibly hear as a porn star: "No more sq***ting probably."
The porn star added that she 'had some bleeding around the bone' but is overall doing well.
Chechik will need a back brace as she heals in the coming months, and shared a picture of Mean Girls' Regina George in her pink brace, all dolled up for prom, to lighten the mood.
She said on social media: "I'm in a lot of pain but feeling hopeful and ready to bring the heat to walk again. Anyone know where I can get my brace blinged and/or a pink coating for it as I’ll be in it for a long time?"
So I will have a brace for a long time so this will be me! If anyone know where u can bling it out or dip it in pink chrome holler this way! pic.twitter.com/A11SuRDzao

People were quick to send their love and support to the star as she recovers from the devastating injury.
Fellow adult film star Brandi Love wrote: "I am still in shock hearing about this. I’m so sorry darlin. You’re in my thoughts & prayers."
Riley Reid added: "Oh my gosh...I’m so sorry to hear that angel!! Send you love and a fast recovery."
Edgar Jimenez, a convention volunteer who worked during the TwitchCon event, witnessed the porn star's injury in real-time.
"She was just doing regular game play, but unfortunately, during her victory dance, she fell and landed, where she was for a good minute or so," Jimenez explained to Buzzfeed News.
