Basically, yeah, I was paragliding and my wing collapsed.
I came down.
I literally saw my leg come out the side.
Bev, how far did you fall?
Probably 40 metres at speed in the pendulum motion.
Straight into a rock onto the beach.
Broke my back in that same scenario.
Fighting fit, prosthetic leg, done heaps of tripping back to Whanganui River.
Today's a big day.
Today's the first day I actually eventually finally go back to work.
I'm actually driving up to my induction now.
So you'd better not keep me too long or I'll be late.
That's so awesome.
Coming up 11 and a half years ago, so I've had to, since I had a spinal fusion, busted up my two legs, had a new baby when she was only nine days old when I had the injury.
And so, yes, and then obviously the roll-on effects through that, losing your income, losing your job, and then now I've been a friend of, studied civil engineering, got my diploma, done a few other things, and, yeah, just cracked on with it.
What a great New Zealander.
