Chev Chelios’ (Jason Statham) wild journey begins right after he plummets from a helicopter in the concluding moments of Crank. He is swiftly picked up from the street by a team of Chinese medics. Upon regaining consciousness in a makeshift hospital, Chev faces a shocking reality: doctors are in the process of removing his heart while Johnny Vang (Art Hsu) observes.

During his recovery, Chev overhears plans by the medics to harvest more of his organs, which motivates him to violently fight back and escape.
