How it Happened - Video
This is the lovely video my father took that shows me almost making it across the creek. I fractured my heel, my ankle and ruptured my Achilles tendon. I had surgery July 3rd to repair the tendon and to put 2 screws in my talus.
Man, that was a canyon, not a creek….
Hope you are doing well and heal quickly without incident…
Holy crap! Talk about hearing the “pop”! Jeez, guy, no more canyon jumping for you. Hope you’re healing well.
Yeah, no more canyons for at least 6 months or so
I am so ready to start therapy.
Wow! And everyone just keeps on laughing…!
Good luck with our recovery.
There is so much funny going on in this video (other than your injury of course). First, I will be using without permission the narrator’s “Let ‘er rip tater chip!”. Second, you completely disappeared from view like you fell into a mine shaft. Third, I love it when someone said you needed a rope to climb back up with.
