TikTok creator Caleb Coffee was severely injured and hospitalized after falling off a cliff. Caleb is known for doing stunts and working out on his TikTok page, and would sometimes feature his family in his videos. He currently has over 11 million followers on the platform.
On August 16, Caleb reportedly fell off a 60 to 80-feet cliff and landed on top of hot lava rocks during a hiking trip with friends. His sister and fellow TikTok creator Peyton Coffee set up a GoFundMe page to help cover medical expenses, where she explained that he had to be airlifted to get to the emergency room. Caleb suffered multiple injuries, including a broken femur, elbow, and wrist, and burns all over his body. The doctors said he was "lucky to be alive and is one of the strongest out there."
In the following days, Caleb's dad Jason Coffee updated his followers that his son was in stable condition and already able to talk. Caleb also posted a TikTok video to update his worried fans that he miraculously didn't break his neck and spine. He also thanked everyone who sent their well-wishes and for supporting him through his GoFundMe page. He ended the video update with a promise that he was going to get better. As of writing, the TikTok star's GoFundMe has reached over $21,000 of the $100,000 goal in just a matter of days. With such a massive following, the Coffee family might reach the fundraiser goal with the help of Caleb's "Coffee Crew." People have seen this happen before with creators like Twitch streamer Stoopzz, whose viewers helped pay off his massive hospital bill.
Many people continued sending their love to Caleb in his most recent TikTok video. Content creators like Tanner Fox and Danielle Cohn commented that they were praying for his speedy recovery. Some also noted that it was a miracle that he survived a 60 to 80-feet fall, and that he was lucky to have been given a second chance at life without any life-threatening injuries. Meanwhile, Peyton also wrote in the GoFundMe page that Caleb had started physical therapy and already walked a few steps.
