BGT star Jonathan Goodwin shares inspiring message after horror accident leaves him paralysed

Escapologist and daredevil Jonathan Goodwin has shared an emotional message with his fans after he was left paralysed in a horror accident in 2021.

The 42-year-old was rushed to hospital in October last year after being seriously injured during a stunt rehearsal for America's Got Talent: Extreme.

He was supposed to escape a straitjacket while upside-down 30ft in the air between two suspended cars but was instead crushed between the vehicles as they caught on fire.
