Video was released from the Tiger Woods’ car crash scene, which showed his SUV in pieces after he was extricated with the jaws of life Tuesday, February 23. The footage reveals some clues about the crash and how it happened. Officials have not yet released a cause of the crash.

Woods, 45, was the driver and only occupant when his car flipped in Rancho Palos Verdes, a Los Angeles suburb.

Woods’ agents told ESPN he was undergoing emergency surgery for “multiple leg injuries.”

Several News Outlets Shared Aerial Footage in the Aftermath of the Crash Which Showed Details of How the Crash Occurred & the Damage to Woods’ SUV

NBC News shared footage from a helicopter, showing Woods’ SUV in the aftermath of the crash. Reporters analyzed what they saw.

“Looking at the video from the helicopters above, you get a sense of just how violent this crash was,” says NBC’s Gadi Schwartz.

The footage of the wreckage made it clear why it was necessary to extricate Woods, he said.

“It appears as though the entire engine of the front of that SUV has been almost sheered off,” he adds.

He said the debris field reveals some of the details of the crash and how it happened, although authorities have not confirmed that information. Schwartz said it appeared as though Woods was travelling northbound on Hawthorne Boulevard near Blackhorse road and crossed southbound, crashed through a sign in the median “and ended up quite a ways away, facing the opposite direction up on that embankment.” He said it appeared all the airbags were deployed.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva and Lomita Station Captain James Powers, public information officer for Los Angeles County Fire, will hold a press conference at 3 p.m. California time to discuss more details about the crash.

Schwartz speculated Woods may have been heading toward or away from the Rolling Hills golf course, where he was making appearances. Woods was in Los Angeles and staying at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes for a two-day shoot with Golf Digest/Golf TV at the Rolling Hills Country Club, which the Golf Channel reported was only about two miles from the crash site. As a part of the tour, he was giving lessons to celebrities including Dwayne Wade, Justin Timberlake, Mookie Betts, Jessica Alba and David Spade.

Wade shared a video from his golf lesson with Woods on Twitter, which showed them golfing together just yesterday.

“prayers out to tiger woods. just yesterday he was golfing with dwyane wade,” a post said, sharing Wade’s video.

Wade, a former NBA player for the Miami Heat, filmed the video with Woods in the background. He said he was thankful for the opportunity to golf with Woods and thanked Woods for “teaching me something.”

“How good am I? Or how bad am I?” Wade asks Woods on the video.

“Uh, good?” Woods answers, and shakes his head with a grin.

Both men laugh, and Woods adds “We’re getting better.”

“We’re getting better, so everybody be on the lookout,” Wade responds.

Sky News also shared video footage from the scene of the Tiger Woods’ crash, which captured images of the “major damage” to Woods’ SUV and of the road on which he crashed. The video shows a smashed windshield and the SUV in multiple pieces after Woods was extricated from the vehicle.

It happened on the border of Rolling Hills Estates and Rancho Palos Verdes a little after 7 a.m. local time Tuesday, February 23. LASD confirmed it was Woods involved in the crash shortly before noon Tuesday.

“Tiger Woods has been taken to hospital after being injured in a car crash in Los Angeles,” Sky News wrote on Twitter. “LA County Sheriff’s Department said: ‘Mr Woods was extricated from the wreck with the ‘jaws of life’ by Los Angeles County firefighters and paramedics'”
