This is honestly so hard to process. As someone who has watched Bob’s Burgers for years, the Belchers feel like family, and hearing this news about Eugene Mirman—the voice of the incomparable Gene Belcher—just breaks my heart.
A Terrifying Accident
On Tuesday, Eugene was involved in a horrific crash at the Bedford Toll Plaza on the Everett Turnpike in New Hampshire. His car, a 2026 Lucid Gravity, reportedly burst into flames after impact.
In a twist that feels stranger than fiction, Governor Kelly Ayotte and a state trooper from her security detail were the ones who pulled him through the car window just in time. The New Hampshire State Police have already said that their quick actions absolutely saved his life.
The Current Update
While the details are still coming in, here is what we know so far:
The Status: He was rushed to a local hospital with serious injuries.
The Good News: Thankfully, officials have stated his injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
It’s genuinely scary to think about how close we came to losing him. Gene Belcher would probably have some absurd, musical way to process this, but for me, I’m just sitting here feeling incredibly relieved that he’s okay.
Sending so much love and a speedy recovery to Eugene. The world needs his weirdness now more than ever.
