A father has been permanently blinded in one eye following a freak accident while he was hiking with his son in Canada.
Ed Steinkamp, 67, from Texas, and his 28-year-old son Bret set out to hike trails in British Columbia, but he slipped and impaled his eye on a tree branch.
According to MailOnline, on the third day of their trip, as the pair were climbing along the West Coast Trail, Mr Steinkamp walked across a tree branch that had fallen rather than tread through the mud.
