Nev Schulman, the longtime host and producer of MTV reality series “Catfish: The TV Show,” says he fractured his neck in a bike accident last week, according to an Instagram post. Schulman, 39, said in a post to his verified account that he was hit by a truck while riding his bike to pick up his son from school on August 5. “I was alone on impact. Me and the truck. And then I guess the pavement,” Schulman wrote. “I was alone and unconscious. And then conscious.” Schulman didn’t specify in his post where the accident occurred, but said the care he received at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital in Southampton, New York, was “remarkable.” CNN has reached out to the Southampton Town Police Department for additional information. The crash left him unable to pick up his son, one of the three children he shares with wife Laura Perlongo.
