Famed golfer Jack Nicklaus’ grandson, who is a Florida State University tight end, walked away from a horrific motorcycle crash just months before football season.

Nick O’Leary slid up to 100 feet after he was thrown off the front of his motorcycle when a Lexus pulled out in front him on May 2. Video footage released Thursday was taken by a stopped city bus.

Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher referenced the accident at a July press conference and said the FSU junior is healthy, weighing 247 pounds and looking “very good” after he “wrecked that daggone scooter and was banged up for about a month,” The Blaze reported.
