Tulum, Mexico — Corey Harrison, better known as Big Hoss from Pawn Stars, is recovering in a Mexican hospital after a terrifying motorcycle crash that left him with 11 broken ribs and a bruised face. On January 26, 2026, Harrison posted a series of updates on Instagram, showing his shattered rib cage and severely battered face, accompanied by the caption: “I’m messed up but alive. Crash bars saved me, been here three nights.”

Harrison didn’t provide full details of the crash, but mentioned his injuries were significantly mitigated by crash bars—the metal frames that protect riders in case of a fall. He’s no stranger to motorcycle accidents, having broken his hand in a similar incident back in 2014. Despite the agony, he expressed gratitude for still being alive, given how severe the crash could have been.

What makes this incident even more heartbreaking is the timing: Rick Harrison, Corey’s father, just tied the knot in a Las Vegas ceremony earlier this month, with an Elvis impersonator officiating. Corey was supposed to be at a family celebration in Cancun afterward, but now he’s lying in a hospital in Tulum, missing the chance to be a part of his dad’s big day due to his severe injuries.
