A Georgia teenager who had about 80 percent of his body burned in a massive boat explosion said he had a premonition on the morning of the life–changing incident.

Isaac Freeman, 18, recalled the explosion on Lake Nottely, about 120 miles north of Atlanta, last Fouth of July just days ahead of its anniversary.

Freeman revealed that he had a 'weird feeling that day' about going on the lake trip with his family and friends, which ended in a monthslong hospital stay.

'I was actually pretty close to not going,' Freeman told WSB–TV.

He was on the boat being driven by his father alongside two brothers and several other family members.

Nearly one year after the explosion, Freeman seemed open to the possibility to getting back on a boat on the lake ahead of this year's 4th of July weekend.

'It's 50/50,' he told the outlet. 'It's hard to say.'

Freeman added that he would 'know until I get there,' as he recalled the unexpected blast.

Freeman said that the explosion last year 'sort of knocked me out.'

His family had stopped to get gas, when they said the vessel suddenly exploded and burst into flames.

He remembered waking up in the water and being 'in shock' at what had just happened.

The teenager, then 17, suffered burns to roughly 80 percent of his body.

'A lot of my nerves at that point were just gone, burnt off,' Freeman said.

While he was being airlifted to the hospital, Freeman recalled being 'on a lot of painkillers.'

He said the experience made him realize that he should not take anything for granted.

'There's no promise of tomorrow,' Freeman told the outlet.

So far, he has underwent more than a dozen surgeries. More are still planned.

Freeman's mother, Brittany Miller, said that the three months her son spent at Grady Memorial Hospital were 'terrifying.'

The first stretch of that included a medically–induced coma, according to the mom.

'I'm just so proud that he is motivated to keep himself going and he's not doing it for us,' she told the outlet.

The teen's father, Matthew Miller, was the one piloting the boat when it blew up. His three sons were on the vessel, according to AtlantaNewsFirst.

Miller explained that the family had to refuel, so he shut off the engine and turned the blower fans on.

The boat was relatively new, with just 350 hours accumulated. Miller said he had 25 years of boating experience.

Once the boat was refueled successfully, the family circled around to pick up trash in the water.

But as family members were about to do that, the back of the boat suddenly blew up, badly injuring Freeman.

'He [had] 82 percent third degree burns,' the dad recalled. 'Second degree on his face and other areas.'

'We are all alive,' he added. 'That’s the most important thing.'
