Medical professionals have indicated that more injuries may surface in the upcoming weeks, underscoring the ongoing nature of his recovery process.

However, Caleb addressed his fans, known as the Coffee Crew, and shared that it was the second day since his fall from an 80-foot cliff.

Caleb is currently hospitalized, experiencing intense pain. His family is working to gather money through crowdfunding  to address his medical expenses due to his lack of insurance.
