I'm afraid that exposes some age in a lot of us.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Idol

In 1990, he broke his leg in a motorcycle accident, and later said in his biography Dancing With Myself (2014) that "by the time the motorcycle accident happened, [he] had been living by the credo 'live every day as if it's your last, and one day you're sure to be right'"
