Carey Hart has "severed [his] small intestine from [his] colon"

Sharing photos from hospital, including pictures of his bandaged torso and the lengthy line of stitches underneath, Carey wrote on Instagram: "Welp, I ran out of talent [face palm and cry laughing emojis].

"I had a pretty nasty get off, practicing Thursday morning. Landed off a jump, bars knifed, and took the bar to the gut while going over the bars.

"As I understand it, severed my small intestine from my colon. I'm fine and will recover from this. (sic)"

After thanking a friend for taking him to hospital, Carey also praised his wife for her support.

He wrote: "Just a big thank you to @feedbigb for talking me into going to the ER, and a huge thanks to @pink . As always does in these situations w/ me, she steps up and takes charge at the hospital. Sorry to put you through this, yet again [cry laughing emoji].

"Thanks Willz and Jamo for coming to visit today. (sic)"

Carey is planning to take a few days to recover then promised to get back to friends who have contacted him over the last few days.

He concluded: "Gonna rest up this week, and start the healing process. ***sorry to everyone I ghosted over the last couple days. There was a good reason for it [cry laughing emojis]. I'm gonna take a few days off, and I'll catch up with everyone next week.(sic)"

Just a few months ago, Carey sustained a "dumb" ankle injury while taking part in 'Special Forces' and had to leave the Fox reality show early as a result.

He told UsWeekly: "Truthfully, it was so dumb.

"It's my own fault that that happened. We were running this brutal workout through the mud holes and into the splash pond and all these things. It was absolutely freezing outside. I got hurt because I wasn't paying attention. It's my own fault that that happened. We were running this brutal workout through the mud holes and into the splash pond and all these things. It was absolutely freezing outside. I got hurt because I wasn't paying attention.

"I went and sat and thawed out in the shower and the wrist was one thing. I'm pretty good with tape. I could have got through it, but there was no way I could complete the next couple of days of that show with a blown-up ankle."

And Carey recalled giving the 'So What' hitmaker a scare when he called to tell her what had happened.

He added: "I FaceTimed her that night. At the moment I got hurt, it was probably around midnight. So by the time I made it back to the hotel and got my phone out of the safe and all the things, it was probably 3 o'clock in the morning U.K. time.

"She'd known the period of the time of the show and probably in the back of her mind, she knows anytime my phone's going to ring before that last day, I'm going to be [hurt]. So her initial [reaction] - she was wide-eyed, kind of white as a ghost, asking, 'Are you alright?' And I'm like, 'Yeah, it's just my old body!"
