Car accident involving reality TV personalities: Police report details - Celebrity experiences harrowing car mishap, according to authorities.
On August 1, 2025, a dramatic accident took place on the German highway A81 between Mundelsheim and Ilsfeld, involving a luxury Corvette valued at approximately 135,000 euros. The vehicle, driven by Gigi Birofio and Yasin Mohamed, was completely destroyed in the crash, resulting in a total loss[1].
Despite the severe impact, both Gigi and Yasin, along with other passengers, miraculously escaped serious physical harm and were reported to be in stable condition[1][3][4]. The Passat, which was involved in the collision, was thrown into the median barrier, resulting in two minor injuries[2].
The police headquarters in Heilbronn has provided details about the course of the accident. It appears that the man was traveling in heavy traffic and on a wet road. Presumably due to an inappropriate speed, the driver did not see a vehicle ahead in time, causing him to swerve onto the left lane, colliding with the Passat[1].
The front of the sports car is almost non-existent, the bumper is nowhere to be seen, and significant damages are visible at the front left of the car[1]. Body parts of the Corvette are bent, and the airbags were deployed in the accident[1].
The police investigation is focusing on possible driving endangerment. It is noted that Gigi Birofio may have been driving without a seatbelt and was using his phone shortly before the crash, raising questions about whether negligence or recklessness contributed to the incident[1][2]. No official police accident report or detailed findings have been publicly released yet, and some inconsistencies or contradictions regarding the accident circumstances have surfaced in media coverage[1][2][5].
Gigi Birofio and Yasin Mohamed shared images and videos of the heavily damaged luxury sports car on Instagram, expressing gratitude for their safety[6]. In a series of Instagram stories, Mohamed is seen driving with Gigi Birofio in the undamaged car before the accident[7]. The reported property damage from the accident is approximately 14,000 euros[1].
The German reality TV and influencer scene have expressed sympathy towards Mohamed and Birofio on Instagram, wishing them a speedy recovery and sending positive vibes their way.
