Since then, he has been traveling a lot and enjoying life. That is, until he was in a serious motorcycle accident.
On April 24, Barry Weiss and his pal Jamie were out riding their cycles. All of a sudden, a large vehicle turned from the parking lot to the street right in front of them. The SUV did not check for cars or bikes on the road.
This is the worst for motorcyclists, as there is no where to go. The bikes could not brake fast enough and Barry smashed into the back of the vehicle. Both motorcyclists were injured. But Barry, who was 68 at the time, was seriously hurt. He broke his femur bone, seriously hurt his back and his chest.
He spent a lot of in ICU. Then, he needed a lot of time for recovery. But, he says, “I’m doing much better.” Back in February, there was a Storage Wars mini-reunion. Barry met up with Dan and Laura Dotson for a bite to eat. He is just as charming as ever. Why did he ever leave the storage locker treasure hunting show?
