One of the victims involved in Arnold Schwarzenegger's multi-car wreck happened to be the Hollywood veteran's fan!

As reported by TMZ, Habiba Muminova was rendered speechless not only because of the terrifying car crash but because the alleged perpetrator was her favorite actor.

The woman was one of the drivers whose cars were damaged following a collision with the "Terminator" alum's black Yukon SUV on Friday, January 21.

Given Schwarzenegger's award-winning performances, it wasn't surprising to learn that one of the victims involved in the unfortunate car crash happened to be the icon's fan.

Although the "Commando" star and Muminova didn't meet under ideal circumstances, the entertainer's admirer was happy she collided with the 74-year-old.

Regarding the unbelievable encounter, Muminova explained to the news outlet that she had been driving patients to the hospital when they were suddenly dragged into the accident. 

The victim had been waiting at the red light to turn on Sunset Boulevard when Schwarzenegger's SUV collided with a red Prius.

The aftermath of this collision caused the back tires of the "Total Recall" star's vehicle to crash into her car with a force that sent quite the shock down Muminova's spine.

With the SUV restricting access to her front door, the victim was forced to exit the car through the passenger's window, where she met the first responders.

Although she was advised to seek medical attention, Muminova chose to remain at the accident scene with the patient she had been transporting.

This decision proved unwise as the woman revealed she suffered from severe body pains resulting in her back, spine, and left side.

Aside from her injuries, Muminova felt distressed about the state of her badly damaged car and the impact it would have on her job.

On that note, the victim stated that she had reached out to an attorney for legal advice before deciding her next course of action. 

As previously shared by The Blast, the accident occurred close to the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Allenford Avenue, about a mile away from the Hollywood veteran's home.

The accident was reportedly severe as eyewitnesses claimed that the airbags in the "Twins" star's SUV were deployed after crashing into the Prius and rolling on top of it.

As for the cause of this dilemma, no arrests have been made, and authorities believed substance abuse was not a factor. Schwarzenegger wasn't wounded, but the woman driving the Prius sustained injuries.

According to the entertainer's reps, the actor was only concerned about the injured driver and even stayed back after the accident to ensure she was safely taken to the hospital.

Coincidentally, this stunt-like accident came a few weeks after finalizing the politician's divorce from his ex-wife Maria Shriver.

Last December, The Blast revealed that the former bodybuilder's divorce from his ex-wife Maria Shriver has finally been settled after a decade-long battle.

The pair's divorce proceedings, which lasted over ten and half years, reached an end following the ex-couple's decision to remove their case from the L.A. County Court.

A private judge was allowed to finalize their divorce, which didn't include a prenuptial agreement — therefore allowing both parties to share their amassed fortune equally. 

As for why the divorce took so long, several theories pointed to the former couple not wishing to end their longtime marriage, which began in 1985.

Their marital home was destroyed after Schwarzenegger admitted to cheating on Shriver with their then-housekeeper Mildred Baena and having a son, Joseph Baena.

The Hollywood Walk of Fame alum and his ex-wife were blessed with four children, who the divorced couple continued to co-parent amicably along with their grandchildren. 

The holiday season wasn't only about cutting ties with his former spouse, as The Blast reported that the 'Predator" star helped homeless army veterans.

The 74-year-old celebrated Christmas early by donating 25 small homes to homeless heroes in Los Angeles. These tiny houses contained a bed, electricity, air conditioning, and heating.

Schwarzenegger was inspired to donate $250,000 to the housing project after Governor Newsom announced his expansion of the Tiny Homes Program.
