Iero was dragged about 10 feet along the curb by the bus until his publicist moved the van, he credits "an enormous rucksack" for saving his life that day. He canceled all remaining 2016 shows and would later speak about that day saying "It broke that impact. I don't even know what would've happened. It's incredible to me that we're all still alive. No one that witnessed the accident thought that we would be."
