Luke Bryan showed off a horrific injury that took place during a fishing outing with a friend on Tuesday.
The country singer-songwriter, who is 44, shared a gruesome video on Instagram on Monday that showed a fishing lure pierced through his thumb in two separate places.
“Well…this is gonna leave a mark,” Bryan says in a video as he stood inches from the water, showing an up-close look at his thumb with a bit of blood on it. “Pretty sure that’s in my bone.”
In subsequent posts shared to his Instagram Story, the “American Idol” judge explained he had gone out on a fishing trip with his guitar tech, Russ, when the injury took place.

“I invited Russ on a fishing trip and leave it to me, I ruined the fishing trip. But we’ll be back on the water in about 25 minutes,” Bryan said calmly.
Another video shows him in the waiting room of a medical facility. “We’re violating HIPPA somehow,” he said before letting out some laughter.
All appeared to be ok, however, as an hour later he posted a video from the water with Russ by his side. “Got the hook out! We’re back!” he updated fans, giving them a thumbs up.
