Professional Snowmobile Rider Attempts to Walk after Spinal Cord Injury
Posted By Phoenix Personal Injury Lawyer on Jan 27, 2012 8:15am PST
While many sports are inherently dangerous, some can seriously injure the players. This is especially true of people that participate in the sport of snowmobiling, a unique event that involves doing tricks in the air on a snowmobile. One man survived an accident that left him partially paralyzed last year. Having already gained a serious reputation at such a young age for partaking in snowmobiling as a sport, many fans were shocked to witness A.C. fall off his vehicle during a training session. When he realized that the trick was not going to end well, A.C. jumped off the snowmobile while still in the air. He landed in such a way that he broke his back sending shards of bone through his spinal cord nerve sac.
Since the accident, he has lost all feeling in the left side of his body, but the young man is not giving up hope. While a spinal cord injury such as this one is very serious, he is determined to walk again. Thanks to hours of physical therapy, he is closer to reaching his goal every day.
