Loic Menzies was enjoying the final day of a climbing trip in Pembrokeshire when disaster struck. The 37-year-old fell 13m while climbing St Govan's Head, striking a ledge on his way down to the ground.
It left him with six fractures in his pelvis, spine, wrist, and lower back while he also suffered internal bleeding. He was flown by Wales Air Ambulance to Morriston Hospital in Swansea where he spent the next four nights.
"Miraculously the X-rays and MRI scans I had in the emergency department confirmed that none of my fractures were displaced so I was lucky in that sense," he said. "My first night was pretty strange in that I was processing what had happened and, at the same time, I couldn't move myself around the bed.
